My .02:
I like Dean's suggestion that the original 'question poster' summarize the
tips/solutions received (one email that way) and what actually fixed the
problem/answered the question. Of course, once a Spitfire is running well
we spend less time at the keyboard and more time behind the steering wheel,
don't we? [I know I do!]

Well, Greg, in my other identity as a mild-mannered Activities Chairman for
a great metropolitan Triumph club, I would certainly be willing to post
notices of upcoming events: Britcar shows, driving tours, tech sessions
(we're having a corker on Sat April 10th on how to set up a home
garage/workshop). But I never have, as they only are relevant to those in
the NYC area.
