With her. I was wondering you think we could sucker Tas into letting us export Donald "the bully" Trump to Tas?

Mr. Trump is getting our votes if the choice is between him and Evil Clinton.

On Taipans, my first was given to me by Gordon Burford, and I use then now and they are great because GOD created electric starters, not like when I had to endure sore fingers from prop strikes after frustrating "hours" trying to get the beasts started. On Donald Trump he is nothing compared with KRUDD, who it would appear the world apart from Australia thinks is political super heavy weight especially the Yanks. He is on track to become secretary general of the UN and then watch out for the Gillard Memorial Halls and pink batt revolutions around the world. Enough politics, the NSW SAM Champs are being run (I am not there damm it) and the most popular 4 stroke is Saito with the 62 in predominance. Happy Easter all.

Not to get off the subjects of Tasmania and Trump. But have you tried the old method of a piece of fuel tubing around the needle valve? To stop any air leak at that point?

Its the lack of trust, and that she lies out of both sides of her mouth. DT is the lesser of two evils. The sad part is neither party has a candidate worthy of a vote.

If you can't vote for someone, then vote against them....

A friend once remarked that all ballots should have a check box that states "Anyone but..... "

Now back to our regularly sponsored Saito Forum.....

Not if I find it first.

What do you get when you put DT and HC together? Not sure, but alphabet soup would likely be more palatable.

Yeah there is and unfortunately I opened up and old wound by posting a question about airleaks on my fox 40 there. Boy, they just started attacking each other over it. Not cool.

Thanks to everyone here that contributed input to my lean high speed probs on my FA-56. Opening up the idle mix screw 3/8 of a turn farther fixed the problem just as I was instructed by someone here.

Thanks for that tip Dave. I'm truly astounded that the engine doesn't load up and extinguish the glow plug running this rich at idle. Very much a non intuitive thing to me.

Looks like the race is on then, I better get there early!

OMG can you imagine? Take both of their ugly faces and superimpose them on each other. That would make Popey enjoy himself immensely

I'm going to walk the tightrope here and let the light hearted political comments keep going as long as they stay just that way. I did delete two that maybe crossed the line a little. But, all bets are off if another moderator happens upon a post he doesn't like or something get reported. Let's not ruin this guys.

Besides, I'm with Dave. Trump. If you listen to him when he isn't being badgered to death and he can talk calmly he makes a lot of sense. These reporters are all like my first wife- always nagging the poor guy to death. See Pope- gun control works over here and Trump is proof of it. He has a license and admitted to carrying. If he has a heater under his coat and doesn't go for it with that mob of piranha then he's stable imo.

I do all my ranting on those two on MSN. I enjoy it because there are so many stupid people posting there, and I love tossing actual facts against whatever they bring up. Here, just making fun of them is enough! Sneering, and snarling. ew, just superimposed that in my head. oh for the love of a running Saito to clear my head.
