Sure Barnett ,just go a few miles inland for where you are in the winter . Snow ,freezing cold   , then go the other way , and the ocean is bloody cold and full of sea weed and most people don't speak ENGLISH either direction .  :thud:  its got NOTHING compared to the GOLD COAST where I live .  Even in the summer in the LA area when its stinking hot the ocean is still bloody cold ,been there done that .

It's done . I had him do it 2 hours ago then test drive it . It had 46 at 3500 rpm . The video I posted of him driving is with the new timing setting.

From post one thousand five hundred thirty four.  :lmao:

Final theoretical timing spec

base/idle ................ 20.0
2000 ...................... 26.5
2500 ...................... 31.5
2600 and above ....... 32.0

I've got a tach but it's a dud and Auto Meter won't warrant it. Going to replace all the gauges shortly anyway..

Well since I posted the following two posts AFTER you asked the question, there wasn't much "going back" to do.  :thud:

Perhaps a little less time Lawn Bowling in the hot Gold Coast sun would do you some good.  :thumb:

Fitzy, here's the shitty view of the shitty mountains and shitty lake from the shitty patio of my shitty house on a shitty hill after I walk thru the shitty 8 x 12 foot sliding glass door in my shitty dining room.

God I wish I didn't live in the ghetto.  :lmao:

California is so great with its total population of around 39 million  :thud:  and 14 million are Hispanic and god only  knows how many are hiding  :grin: then all the other races .  Good old QLD has around 4.8 million people and about 10 people are Hispanic  :grin: Australia has around 25 million people I think ,and that's a lot less than CA itself .

Well I don't see a view of the coast from there although it does look nice.

Is that a roofer on the top of your house? . We usually hire Hispanics so they can make us home made burritos.

I like the Duck.

We have a resident rabbit and racoon and several birds.

Well of course we have lots of Hispanics, who else is going to pick our Strawberries?  :thud:

At least we don't have any Aborigines . Do you guys use them to pick yours?  :shrug:
