OK, lemme get this straight.  If I'm reading correctly, I'm buying beer for an
as yet undetermined number of thirsty Spridgeteers, who are not gullible
enough to be satisfied with what I call "kid beer" (any Budweiser, Miller or
Coors product)?   Damn!  It sure can be expensive to get old!

OK, Bud, but I posted about the really good beer BEFORE you admitted defeat.
I still want the beer.



If you get near Madison, WI, Peter C. introduced me to a great micro-brew
place that had real good stuff.  I'll take one of those.



IIRC, Jim Johnson is a bit of an expert, too.  He can join us.



Anybody else?

John, Larry,

I stand corrected (and slightly embarrassed).  I was just SURE that...
Getting old really sucks, sometimes J

The idea of 7/16-20 came from measuring the mating air manifold. It is a
7/16-20 UNFstraight thread, it is not a tapered pipe thread. 1/8 pipe is a bit
smaller and the pitch is close so a 1/8-27 pipe plug screws in, that doesn't
make it the thread size.
