Where does Chip Hyde hang out. I met that little kid at the AMPS field when he was 10 years old. I bet he could wring my Carden Cap out!

I think there was some misunderstanding because a couple similar threads popped up today. Just raised a couple eyebrows. Everything is fine though. Please keep us updated, I'm keenly interested to see what the problem is.

It really bugs me a guy gets on this website for help and people jump in here and start suggesting troll right off the bat. If you guys are questioning the legitimacy of this man then take it up with the mod's in a PM. I think lately people here have been to damn short fused, and to quick to take offense to someone having a problem with a brand they love. The poor guy is not on here slamming how bad your wife is in the sack. Its just a damn motor so chill the hell out. He is on here just asking for help. Yea it's odd to see a company as good as DA have two posts in such a short time period but take it up privately with the mods before you discourage a person from asking for help. I don't see how that is keeping a enviroment that is going to be inviting to new members. Can't we all just play nice?

Show of hands. Who here buys a new car, goes home, tears out the engine and runs it on the bench to break it in????

Same guys who think they need to break in a gas airplane engine.

You can drop by their office unannounced and they will help you. I go in there all the time (last friday as a matter of fact).



[quote=vernonf;193473]I will talk to DA and follow their instructions. I will try to drive it down to Tucson in the morning. Their website says office visits by appointment only. So if anyone from DA is viewing this. Please let me know if visiting to drop off the engine is ok.

Now I think thats going to far. Not everyone is an expert. Most of us started with glow engines. Natural progression of logic is to break in the next motor on a test stand. How about helping and not attacking?
