We are working on corn as well . Now if it would just stop raining just enough to keep us from going. By the way Mark got the gear installed, so now the rest can start going together. Thank you   Joel

Joel, glad the gear helped out.

And I would add that it is quite gratifying when an engine that has been lying on the bench for a few weeks is resurrected back to life.  I  remember many an anxious moment checking and re-checking to be sure that everything was in its place and ready  for that first pull on the rope - slowly rolling at first, spitting sputtering, and revving to a heart pounding deep throat-ed roar.
