Re: tune up question

I'd recommend moving entire upper air assembly forward, or better yet
remove altogether. Because of my steel lines, removal mandatory. Timed
myself -- 15 minutes (for some reason re-installation is closer to
half hour). Is still a long reach to back of engine, but at least
everything's accessible.

Helpful hint: put retaining clip on throttle linkage BEFORE
reattaching U pipes.
