> > John, you make it to Minneapolis okay? > I made it to MInneapolis without difficulty and then made it to my parents' place this morning. Still averaging around 28 mpg or so. No problems, but I did give Sophy a good check up this afternoon. Valves were all good. Changed her oil, synch her carbs (they were off a bit and I discovered the RH accelerate pump wasn't working at all. Took it apart and freed it up.) checked her dwell and timing (both still fine). She seems much happier now, but still has the slight stumbling at light throttle. I am beginning to think that I am getting an air leak at the throttle plate shaft/bushing. At light throttle, it would seem that this would be the most noticable since the vacuum under the throttle plate would be high. I think I will have the carbs rebushed this winter when she is off the road. Glad you made it back to Madison OK. I will see you for lunch on Sunday.
