Frank I thought the "S stood for extended electrode?????
So what did they determine while poking at your plumbing?"
Yes, the S is extended electrode, just on a 3/8" reach plug. The F and FF mean 1/2" reach plug.
So a 44S is just an extended electrode 44. An extended electrode 44FF would be a 44FFS, and yes, I have seen them in Corvair engines.
While poking at my plumbing to see why the chest pain, they found a clogged artery in the heart. They installed a stent and the pain went away. It seemed such a simple, painless and non-intrusive procedure that I thought I should go home right away and get back to working on projects. But no, they said it was a serious heart attack, and kept me for 4 days. They would only release me then if I learned how to give myself injections of blood thinner. No Fun! Luckily that only lasted 4 days until the Cumadin took over. I should have bought the extended warranty, the factory one has expired at 50.
See you at the farm in September.
