CARBS Did he install them? Did you give him the chance to troubleshoot
them?
3 cars running in a club? That's nothing to do with the Corvair..it's the
people!!
Corvairs are CHEAP.......I've known several people with a dozen Stangs / 55-7
Chevies laying around for 20 yrs......BUT in the last10 yrs.....one by one
they've been bought by someone willing to pay $1000's for a hulk.........not
yet in our Vairs...
Some Chapters...like the one Ned M. and Terry K. are in.....pool their
talents resources...and get / keep all members driving....It's the PEOPLE! and you
LOVE them!
What is different in a Corvair.....other than aircooled and 2
carbs......from the Caddy? I learned on a lawnmower.........it's all the same....now I work
on Gas Turbines....
AIR / FUEL / Ignition and CONTROL it....
