    Cover your eyes too... no kidding. FYI Research is pointing to the virus attacking hemoglobin in red blood cells. This is what Malaria does and it is why some researchers think the malaria drug works. Also correlation of severity with blood type A also points to blood being significant.
  2. A key point!
  3. 1. (DCOE and SU) Oil or grease paper gaskets. They last longer, seal better, and do not stick or tear when separating during future maintenance. 2. (DCOE) If you have the optional cold weather starter circuit on your carbs, the plungers that seal the openings to the throat can corrode and/or seal poorly. The trick is to remove the plunger, apply some valve grinding compound to its sealing tip area then use long needle nose pliers to seat it in place and to rotate it to lap a perfect seal. Be sure to flush out the compound after this work.

    You need popcorn for this one:
  5. @zKars A group in USA did tests and found two layers of blue shop towels filtered similar to N95. The correct brand shop towel is needed. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8187603/Designers-say-layers-blue-shop-towels-inside-cotton-masks-help-effectiveness-homemade-PPEs.html
  6. Sadly they will only come around when someone close dies or almost dies.

    The plan is obvious and it is what they did in Taiwan. In fact , Taiwan never shut down. The problems with the plan's timeline are: 1. No test kits.... you need about 400 million tests for 1 pass. Weekly testing or less would be needed.... plus the labs or portable labs to do the tests. 2. No masks 3. No travel entry point testing 4. These days many people are generally ignorant, selfish , and or poorly educated so buy in will be tough 5. It just takes one person to set this thing off again. 6. It is not known if one develops immunity or if it fades with time. It is a bad situation. The current priority is to survive until a vaccine or similar is made. I think the Taiwan model could be implemented in a month or two... sadly it will take more deaths before the poorly educated and ignorant realize the few choices civilization has.
  8. I like it. What would be the trigger and how often does it need a trigger?

  10. Tuning! It is the best part of the rebuild.... you will find the Gremlins and enjoy exponential improvements.
  11. There may also be a British thickness to consider as Nissan manufactured Austins between 1953-1959.... remember BST ?
  12. WOW VERY COOL BRUCE!!!!!!
  13. Adjust float level as first step.

  15. @HS30-H probably has gauges for 432-R (not including the FPR parts) ? It could make another column.

  22. FYI: You can shim that spring with washers to increase oil pressure. 2 washers work nice.
