Hey, speaking of, **** boy. Why did you act like a bad ass here when I
offered to meet up with you, only to pussy out? Everyone here knows
you don't live anywhere near Miami.


Hey, asshole, I asked you where I live. *You didn't respond, Sally. *You
pussied out on that one.

I'll meet you at MIA anytime you want.- Hide quoted text -

Hi, **** boy! You're too much of a little sissy to trust to go to MIA.
Oh, and you've stated before you live in the Chicago area.

The base engine is fine - it's the VRO that is flaky. I replaced one
of mine on the 393V I owned, but never had another problem. Other guys
who ran them went through two or three of them. ?It just depended.


Oh, with respect to the hot foot - give it a chance - you can always
remove it if you decide you don't like it. ?Personally, I'm ambivilent
about them. I had one once and it didn't really annoy me as much as I
thought it would.


Good luck with it.


Went up and looked at it last night. Besides the hotfoot, the
hillbilly did quite a lot of..... let's say.... customizing that I
didn't care for. Then he told me that he had replaced the VRO system,
but when it failed it didn't do any harm "as far as he could tell".
The battery/electrical wiring looked like my 8 year old did it. Now
all of this wouldn't have been bad, I love having a project, but he
wouldn't come down to anywhere near 3 grand so I passed!

Yes, you would certianly thinkt hat if a person was wanting to get a
NADA like value out of it, they would at least have the energy *to
clean the thing up and make it presentable. and I see from that red
wire what you're talking about. *it does look "patch 'n go" *. Yeah,
like I said, if it's good enough for him, then it's good enough for
anybody. *Yeah, the validity of the engine would be a huge concern.

Yeah, questions arose like hmmm, I wonder exactly what happened when
the VRO quit the first time. And hmmm, no harm "as far as he could
tell"!

Explain to us just what's wrong with a double wide except there are some
wildly exaggerated connotations connected to it.
