Hmm…Intercourse. I was thinking it was a strange name but in remembering my travels in Indiana, there is French Lick so not so strange I guess.
There are a lot of Amish in north central and northeast Ohio between Columbus and Cleveland. I think they live peaceful lives but never have understood that they can work in an establishment with…[Read more]

This morning I meandered to the county DMV. I was a little leery since my last visit to the local DMV but these folks were in a totally different league. I brought all the GA required paperwork to title a kit car and had the inspection sheet signed off by the county sheriff’s office and the insurance paperwork. Told them I wanted to title the…[Read more]

So I was in Intercourse earlier today and this older Amish guy in a motorized wheelchair (have never been able to figure out the Amish god’s restrictions) scooted across the street to ask me about the car. We talked for about 10 minutes with him asking a bunch of questions, that’s the longest I’ve ever talked to the Amish other than conducting…[Read more]

scubasteve started the topic Fuel Additives in the forum VW Based Kits 9 years, 2 months ago
I have seen numerous ads extolling fuel additives, but, being advertisements, must be taken with a grain of salt.
I have heard that most of our type engines were made before the use of lead-free gas they tend to lose compression, and the wide spread use of added alcohol in gas makes the problem even worse.
They all talk about cleaning carb…[Read more]

I doubt it’s your tablet. the editor must have gotten stuck in some funky mode. I removed the funny stuff…. well, if you made a joke, I didn’t remove that 🙂

I second the recommendation of putting a shut-off a foot or so downstream of the gas tank. Also means that you can place a fuel filter right after the shutoff and that will make replacing the filter easier.
I can’t count the number of times I said “well I’ll never have to do that again”.
Also, it might be possible to access the master cylinder by…[Read more] -

You are right, it is all in who you talk to — also maybe it’s how you deal with them and whether you hit them when they’re busy and having a bad day, or in a good day and not doing much. I know that Doug of Doug’s Garage had a dickens of a time with Nevada DMV registering his TDR. Took him months. My own experience was very easy, but that’s pa…[Read more]

Sounds like you live in ILLINOIS! 😡
One day you talk to one state employee in one office, only to be told by someone in another office a different story. 🙄
If I have any questions, I Google it and look it up on the official state webpage. 💡
Hope you get everything straightened out.
GOOD LUCK! 😮

Lyle started the topic On my 3rd engine overheating in the forum Chevy/Ford Kits 9 years, 2 months ago
I have a mg Td deluxe built in 1986. I have gone through 2 Chevy engines and have now tried a Toyota 22r. I can’t seem to stop the engine from over heating. I have installed an electric fan but still she gets hot.i have also had the radiator increased to 4 cores. Anyone ever cut the vents in the sides?? Any thoughts?

Well…like the topic header says, it was a frustrating day at the local title office. I had all the paperwork and they were ready to register Moneypenny as a 1971 VW Kit Car and then they said there was no need for a title for a vehicle as old as 1971. I said I understood that and explained that the reason I wanted the title was when I die, my T…[Read more]

Phillip. When you disconnect the fuel line, have a couple of 5 gallon gas can ready and when the fuel line comes off at the tunnel tube, stick the fuel line in the gas can. Saves gas that way. And you may want to consider mounting a fuel shutoff valve just ahead of the tunnel fuel tube. That’ll eliminate that problem if you ever have to pull the…[Read more]

My Fiberfab is has the same setup as Kent’s and Allen’s. The builder held on the tank with four bolts and large fender washers that he bent the corners of and act like clamps.
