The other day, as I climbed a hill, she started bucking again and then she started vibrating as if something in the drive train was coming apart. This on & off bucking has been going on for a while now (9 months, maybe) and folks have told me it's either the carb (fuel starvation) or the timing. I ...

Rich, you are the Man! Thanks so much!

John thought it might be the ethanol blend we have here, but I'm not so sure.

Do the coils ...

Hi all, thanks for the responses. I've been putting E10 in the gas tank, seems all they sell around here. I didn't think about changing the thermostat. Is the thermostat in the upper radiator hose by the water pump? Know what the part number is? Maybe I can get one locally. It does get nice and ...
