Neither did I.
We gotta keep these old guys around as long as we can... because without their immense knowledge. i for one, will be totally screwed!
Get well Duane. I wish i could do something to help that would amount to a fraction of the wisdom you have shared with me over the past 10 years.

Thanks for the news Major. Those gunked up oil passages are a worry, but he seems to be a stayer.

Just a thought, Duane could always use a donation to keep his website up and running. He's lucky he didn't need head work !

I'm happy to hear a good report and hope for his speedy and complete recovery.
The sooner you get behind, the more time you'll have to catch up.
