Eric, Sorry about the delay. I delete more posts than I read due to the rambling on about carburetors. Anyway, my mechanic's name is Mark and his phone number is (804) 368-7691. If he doesn't answer, just leave a message. He is a one man shop and does not answer calls if he is under a car... His shop is right on i95 in Ashland at the Hanover Air Park.
