I put her away on the upper deck of the lift. I've just been having too much problems pop up and am just too frustrated and tired of working on her for now. I figure a break from her is what I need.
After the carb overhaul, it seemed to run OK, then the primary fuel bowl overflowed and no adjustment would settle the float. I disassembled the fuel bowls and checked the needle valves, cleaned them out and even replaced them with spares without success. I was tempted to set a match to her but came to my senses! It's like being with a bad woman, somehow we just don't seem to be compatible! I'm actually having visions of getting rid of her.
I think a break from the goose and working on my other neglected cars (who appreciate me more) will be a good thing until I'm ready to tackle her temperamental fits again. Oh well, at least she looks good, new carpeting in the drivers compartment and the engine bay.
