Hi Mark, welcome to AA. You may not be aware, but politics is strongly discouraged here. Many of us are of an age to understand the reference in your avatar and tag line - we come here to enjoy our shared passion for audio, not to resurrect old and bitter memories. Thanks for your consideration.

Totally understand, That Avatar and Pic are used on another non Audio site for the last 30 Plus years. How ever having been on the internet and many sites I did check with the Mod who suggested the last part of the name instead of the actual name would be ok. He did not know that I was posting he other part.

How ever, I will remove that Avtar at your suggestion out of respect for you and the forum with no hard feelings. Thanks for bring this subject to my attention.

Regards: Mark R

Thanks Glen, It did breath fire at one point at first start up years ago..LMAO.

Seems during an Electric fuel pump test for a leak check before start up, it did dribble some unnoticed fuel by one of my friends who were helping.

Naturally we were all excited to fire it up for the first time. I was behind the wheel and another on the driver side who acted as a spotter. The other friend was on the passenger side with a Fire Extinguisher !

On crank over.. the top of the Motor burst into Flames which were quickly put out with a Haylon Extinguisher.

So to your point.... It is a Fire Breather...L.O.L.
