Sorry Guys and Gals,

We've just come back from a day trip, Fremont to Santa Cruz up and over the hill - ran great, no issues. Santa Cruz back to Fremont - same problem - nothing to fix.

Another perfect trip in my beautiful Palm Beach.

After our trip to Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and back to Fremont the coach was running rich again. I didn't have time to fiddle with it, so I took it to Jim K's place. Nick and his boys jumped right in and determined that a fuel pressure regulator might do the trick. It worked perfectly.

Gene,
Fred Davis, Rally Master invited me to come over to the Pacific
Cruisers Rally to put on a short tech talk.
I talked Rick Flanigan, or friend and Mechanical Designer to go with me.
He offered to take his personal coach with the Aulgur Reaction Arm
System and the Limited Slip Differential .
We were able to do a panic stop, but the Park staff made us quit as we
went over 35MPH and violated the 5MPH limit.
After that we retreated into the club house for few topics.
After Happy Hour,we had a great Roasted Chicken dinner then drove back.
Weather was great, Rick got sun burned.

Nope - Daughter's 15th birthday with friends at the Boardwalk. The GMC was the subject of curious photographers and generated lots of smiles from folks on the street.
