    Should be no problem. Swiss and German was always available but limited distribution and got expensive. But GOEX started shipping retail again last Fall. https://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/threads/goex-back-in-production.165006/

    Rolled a handful of paper cartridges last night. 4 with just powder for misfires and a 90 gr FF with .69 My buddy was asking for his powder back as he's going upstate and might want to shoot. No idea when I'll get a chance to use it.

    Maybe. He had no plan. Having the space is great, but to actually make it pay he's gotta list and sell it. It's a lot of cash to tie up.

    IIRC There's a more detailed breakdown they did about the cost of the crude - how much it costs to get out of the ground, then how much to ship it, etc. Some states regulate the retailers to try to stop price gouging. IIRC NJ somehow doesn't allow big jumps in prices.

    A lot of places have additional restrictions on RVP. https://www.gasbuddy.com/go/summer-blend-and-winter-blend-gasoline At least one state has a drivability requirement. Its one of the midwest states IIRC but I forget the details.

    they're allowed get to cut it with more benzene tolulene and cheaper stuff to improve low temperature starting. \ Unfortunately we get some hot days here before switchover. Then I can smell the fuel and the car doesn't like it much either

    I paid more than that in the wrong location. :( But I wanted the tank full before heading home. So it goes. No idea why its going up now. The refineries don't have to start sendin summer fuel until May 1.

    Not much of a story. That's the size the fits the anchor pins and and so I was using it, until it spun. I'd be there now but told the neighbors Id help be the 'new' person with their dog trainer to get him used to people. After lunch took a call from a blacksmith who can make some htings for...

    Read the tips on using the windage screen. Basically its best to open them up a bit - add another pair or two of louvers. Let us know how the intake valley splash pan fits. The one in my current 340 took some fitting but I cant recall if its a Milidon or Moroso

    Nice! I'm off to play some v-ball. I was able to put together a circuit schematic of what your 64 probably started with using some 63 and 65 info. It probably would be easiest to stop by and see what you have in hand. Then figure out how to blend the old with the new in terms actually making...

    Apparently that's the deal. Sentences are typically reduced or in this case changed when the guilty returns X amount.

    looks nice in the photo but see if you can find something that protects the connections, and supports the bundled cable. I've seen a few posted here in the past. (here=FABO not coffee thread specificly)

    Never heard of either one! LOL. Gimme some Bonnie Rait, Lucinda Williams or who was that gal that had a hit a couple years ago - I'll think of her name later. I'm doing OK. Too much desk time this week. Still need to work on the jeep's brakes. Wanted to get to the range this evening but...

    Be drinving along on the interstate and let up on the throttle to exit and it would sometimes flood. Part of that was the mechanical pump's spring. But just an example of the type of flooding that would be me in the ***. Then I'd open the fuel level sight plug and drain some fuel onto a rag.

    Try to tip it so the outlet will let vapor to push past the inlet valve first. I think on my Baracuda its more like 35-40 degrees but thats the idea. Also if the vapor gets so hot that it develops enough pressure to force open the inlet valve, it won't push as much fuel into the bowl. I...
