Found all this extra weight the other day on my mouse motor:  Looking much better:  Now for some heavy cleaning.... Tonight I got the deck lid hung. Still needs a little alignment left to right but otherwise I am really pleased!    |

It made a big difference on the rail when I pulled the belt. Got me into the 13's.
Figure I will give myself that full advantage here.

Well, my gas tank might not have been such a great deal. The threads for the line are an odd size. 10mm with a 1.25 thread. Napa could find nothing to fit. Anyone have any ideas? Now that it is ready to be installed I really want to use it.  |

That thread size for some reason reminds me of banjo bolts and brake lines.
Perhaps McMaster-Carr has a brass thread adapter of some sort? Or a hydraulics supplier?
