You're welcome for the help, glad you got it up and running again (it is running now, yes?).
Swiss - I seem to remember there was a guy from MN closing down the bars with me on that trip. He posts here a fair bit and could really use a new trailer, do you remember his name....?

yea late last night we fired up.the beers tasted so good took me alittle longer to get everything together.not sure if it was the fumes or the beers but i was staggering around pretty good by the end.the rebuild went very well,not hard just takes alot of time.i feel alot better knowing i can rebuild one of these now.
