 :D Have an old radiator guy here that always said that's how you gap them, just measure the drop to the ground in inches  :D.

Reading through Postons list above, you know, there's some good wisdom in some of those sayings.

Here's one that's been around us pastoral councillors a lot: "hurt people...hurt people". And it's so true.
87 acres abandoned northern Maine farm and forest to reclaim. 20 acres in fields, 55 acre woodlot: maple, spruce, cedar and mixed. Deer, bear, moose, fox, mink, snowshoe and lynx. So far: a 1950 Fergie TO-20, hand tools, and a forge. (And a husband!)

My brother used to always say
"It's on like a pot of neck bones"
I'm not sure if he made that up or what.

JJ , who are you calling stupid?

sandhills

I'm pretty sure no one, just an old saying "you can't fix stupid"  ;).  Which brings to mind another for me from "Forest Gump, Momma always said stupid is as stupid does", ya that one pretty much defines me  :D.

downsouth

Maybe I stuck my foot in my mouth, I guess that's an old saying also.

Watched 'Barnwood Builders' the other night, never seen it before.  One of the guys on the show said "Tougher than two yellow toe nails".  Cracked me up for some reason. :D
