Re: Rough idle on 1951 8BA
As to the ruptured PV diaphragm, if it ever backfired through the carb, it may have "blown" the PV diaphragm.

Re: Petronix in Mallory Distributor
Also, you must use their specific coil for your application or you'll have trouble. I know of more than one person who went back to a points system.

Re: wood clear
I also used Sikkens Cetol Marine finishes on various areas of my wood Lyman boat. Easy application and easy to touch up.

Re: Short trip away in the 33
Yes, thanks Lawrie for taking us along. Glad the 33 is up to the task. Wonder if that Twin Bonanza was stolen, besides carying drugs. Not a cheap plane.

Re: Compression
Stores like N A P A. Standing joke here is : Never Any Parts Available. The guys who work there are actually GR8 & get what they don't have next day.

Denny, I say both. I remember thinking my dad's 53 Packard was so big, till I turned 21 and rone in one. Those 2 gals may be petite .
