    I'd rather not have to replace them at all. Parts are money and less money means less toys :(

    Yes, absolutely. The fewer things have to be replaced, the better. Good luck, dude! When do you expect to be fixing the HG?

    Definitely gonna want to think about a new battery and changing fluids, including gas. I wouldn't want to run that old gas through the system, probably foul something up.

    Yeah I know. Already needs a new battery. The sad thing is the tank had just been filled before it died :frusty:

    Ouch! Now that sucks! I wonder if it's still good enough for a lawn mower at this point. Well, you can always use it as parts cleaner- that's what I do with bad gas. Still cleans off grease, oil, and dirt well.

    Yeah that's what my stepdad does. It's still a shame though because that is A LOT of gas...

    Definitely still sucks! But I guess you'd get some use out of it, at least. Still the cheapest parts cleaner per gallon, I reckon. :laugh:

    I am in the beginning of planning a loop through southwest Colorado. Creede to silverton, stony pass. Silverton to Telluride, BBP. Telluride to Silverton, Ophir pass. Silverton to Lake City Engineer pass. Probably 3 or 4 days. Maybe throw some side-trails or sights in there. Should I let you know when the time is closer? Thinking August.

    Anyone is welcome, I doubt I will make an "official" event.

    Is Big Bend still happening? That thread kinda died.

    Not good for Flagstaff, a lot of the business entrances are super steep. I used to drag the bottom all the time
