Hi Brian,
Yup, I was busy with the Cabin Fever show plus being busy with all the spring time stuff to peek in here very often. I like the looks of your new fuel tank.

For some folks may not find fuel tanks interesting but I had a problem with mine that prevented the engine from running for more than 15 - 20 seconds. Although the filler cap was vented it had an extension on the bottom that projected under the fuel level with a 3/4 or more full tank. So the engine ran fine when the tank was low on fuel but would sputter out after I filled the tank. This problem drove me nearly bonkers.

Cheers,
Phil
 
That's better. With the adjustment made t the rocker arm, the clank clank noise has pretty well disappeared.---Brian
