This is what I was talking about earlier.  I haven't had any problems so
far (knock on wood) with my wiring or computer or fuel injection except
for some unexplained surging form time to time.

I think though that I will not play this game of hide and seek.  I'll
replace it with a carburetor as soon as it starts giving me troubles.  I
know I'll save a lot of hair ( I'm bald already anyways).
