As is often the case I'm under neith a coach in fill in the blank and ill come across something that I can't figure out in the Manual or my nifty Swiss Army knife and I have to use a life line. The current problem was the front and rear cork gaskets that come with the mr gasket #404 intake set. I had it all tightened up and the 2 were loose as ... So like usual I call JimB on a Sunday @ 4p and ask the master. He tells me that he's in Pennsylvania rescuing a coach. I tell him that is funny that I also am in Pennsylvania rescuing a coach. He is about an hour away. He gives me the fix to my problem and sez that he has his own. That he needs an alternator. Just so happens I carry an extra so john the PO of tge coach I'm buying runs it over. I'm am now holding up at a rest area north of Richmond on 95 waiting for him to catch up & we are going to will 2 relics back to Florida. Could ask for a better wingman.

I just talked to JimB. Sounds like the trip is a challenge for you both.
Recommended taking I-295 around Richmond. Distance is about 2 miles more but
this time of day it's an ez'er drive for a convoy pulling tows than I-95 thru
the cities of Richmond and Petersburg. Stay safe.
