Hi, Larry, I'd sure like a copy of the 4-154 manual.



Check your email....(c;]

If you need the flight manuals for the Boeing 777, no problem....(c;]

Probably not a good idea, though, to be reading them on your laptop on a
flight....hee hee. "Captain, I noticed you didn't properly deploy the
reverse thrusters, as it shows here on page 4-287 of the flight manual.
Has there been a change I don't have?" They get all excited....especially
if you have a Middle East accent!

36866201 GASKET, cyl. head to induction manifold

"No, ma'am. You sent me 36866201 but it came in as the rear muffler
bracket for a 1972 Ford Pinto sedan. I'm trying to order 36866201 for a
Perkins 4-154 marine diesel engine. It's the cylinder head to induction
manifold gasket......"

"No, ma'am. These muffler brackets won't work for that. Do you want me to
send them back?"

"No, ma'am. As this mistake was your, I don't think I should be paying a
15% restocking fee."
