RE: OS .10FP

Hi

I'm not sure, but I think I have read/seen somewhere that the early fp engines were true abc, and that was the time when they switched to nickel plating??

If the engine is running OK as you say (you tell it from...

RE: Tower .75

Most of the time the problem is on the tank!! so check your tank!

I hate when the clunk goes forward and pinches the line....and when the fuel tube falls inside the tank...it drives you nuts!
