I got a WD 45 gas tank from him several years back. I haven’t had the tractor running since 2012. I decided to give it a go today. Swapped the gas tank. Cleaned sediment bowl housing. Cleaned gas line. Cleaned carb. Cleaned points. Cleaned plugs. Put in a battery and she came to life. I warmed it up and checked everything over and went for a back road drive. I sure wonder how ole Les is doing? I sent him a video of the tank and tractor running. |

Is he still chasing that ‘nurse’ around the bedroom, or is she chasing him? ------------- I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science. |

He did send me a short message. I sent another. Hopefully he’ll make it to the annual motorcycle get together this year. I also sent him an invite. |
