Due to some recent unpleasant experiences associated with the GMC
net, I have decided it is time for me to unsubscribe from the net.
Looking back at my computer files on GMC information, I find that I
have not saved any information from the GMC net over the past few
years. The people that are new owners are the folks that will gain
the most from the net. After owning GMCs for the past 25 years, I
have had the experience of replacing or repairing about everything
there is associated with a GMC. I have had the good fortune of being
able to maintain my GMCs without having anyone else do repairs, with
the exception of front end alignments. The only time I have ever had
to call for a tow was one time when the fuel tank transfer valve
failed to work properly and my engine quit because of no fuel. I was
only ten miles from home, so I had it towed home rather then trying
to figure out what was wrong along the side of a busy freeway. I
have more revisions/modifications to my GMC than I care to remember.
Some good, and some not so good. The things that have given me the
most problems on my GMC are my own modifications/additions I had made-
not OEM design or equipment.

One of my major enjoyments by participating in the GMC net was being
able to share my thoughts, inventions and modifications with the CMC
community. Over the years, I have given numerous seminars, written
many technical articles and examined many GMCs for new or potential
GMC buyers, all with great enjoyment and with lots of thanks and
appreciation. The reason I am leaving the GMC net is because I
became aware of some private e-mails where a very well respected
member of the net made the following statement:"I'm being drawn,
reluctantly, into controversy about Chuck's front wheel bearing
greaser xxxxxxxxxxx." "From the first time I heard Chuck mention it,
I had a lot of questions/qualms. Now that it is being produced and
I"ve read the instructions that accompany it few of them have been
resolved. Not for my benefit (I have no intension of EVER using one
on an in-service bearing), but for those who may attempt to do so
without fully understanding the possible hazards: xxxxxxxxxx.
xxxxx,but I'm really concerned this one is Ill conceived and likely
to cause more problems than it solves." So for all you folks that
purchased one of my front wheel bearing lubricator, you best return
them before you damage your GMC. It is currently being redesigned by
another engineer so I hope all the "many hazards" will be resolved
and it can help some of you people that may find it useful. I just
don't have the patience to keep trying to justify the tool usefulness
to a person that has never seen one,let-alone tried one. However,
this is a free world and he has the right give his opinion to anyone
that ask.

So, fellow GMC netters, you are lucky you have a very intelligent
person on the net that is looking out for all of you folks that may
not be able to correctly judge things for yourself. To prevent any
more chances of me causing harm to your GMCs, I am resigning from the
net and will not be sharing any more of my "Ill conceived"
inventions with anyone except some of my local good GMC friends.
Anyone that has questions for me relative to the GMC, you can call,
email or talk to me at future rallies. I will not discuss anything
more relative to this subject and hope everyone else does the same.

GOOD BYE FROM CHUCK AULGUR
