The weld looks good but, someone came up with bright idea of putting sealer on it. It got me to thinking you could never be to sure about it being leak free so I did. That is what I dont like about the whole thing. It held pressure and water for a while so it was leak free to begin with and I put the sealer on just to C.M.A

Well I got tired of driving 30 minutes to my buddies to work on my car cause that is where it has been for a few months now hanging out. I borrowed a trailer and brought it home today. I really dont have anywhere to work on it here but atleast it is here and I can just walk outside and work on it if desired.

I did get the tank installed today and got the carb put on again. I didnt have many tools here so what I could do was limited.

Thanks I appreciate it. I was gonna use it as the toy but with fuel the price it is now. I needed something good on fuel to drive every day. So I left it alone.

I can only hope so...

My concern is the heads being to much for my little motor. They have had a ton of work done to them. If it doesnt run good n/a it should haul the mail on the spray.
