I just wanted to give a big thank you to all who helped me last month
to get my bird flying again. I was the kid who had the 3208 in the
1980 35FC that wouldn't stay running. I don't know what all I did
that worked, but it seems that it will, once I get around to test
drive it.

I put an algecide in the tank, I blew out the lines completely, I
bought a Racor 1000 and used the bottom half to rebuild my Racor 900,
primed it, bled it, and fired it. It idled for over an hour in the
driveway - 2 days in a row. I was able to take it up to 3k and hold
it there with no signs of it being a problem. It seems that I no
longer have a fuel restriction, and I learned alot while working on it.

I also want to thank Jeff Miller for his suggestions about my reversed
Polarity issue.

Jeff, I plugged the bus into a different outlet and the light went
off, so I'm figuring it was a house problem and not a bus problem.
Just the same though, you explained in detail of what to look for and
how to tell the differences, etc and I appreciate that.

I know I might be a little late with this, but I figure it's never to
late to say thanks - and I really do mean it.

Take care,
John

Happy you're back out there.
