Joel - Yup, you got it!  That '66 Alfa Guiletta (or how ever those
Italian Dudes spell it) roadster I bought just after returning from Viet
Nam CONFIRMED this "karma" stuff for me!  I'm convinced the electrical
system was designed/fabricated/installed by dudes/dudettes who had
caught their "significant others" in the arms of another the night
before.  The carburetors & associated paraphenalia were, obviously,
installed by some poor soul who had just finished spending a fortune of
his "honey", only to see her elope with some dingy Harley-Davidson Dude
the night before!

You know, some folks complain about some vehicles' insistence on NOT
following the rules elaborated within various service manuals.  Good
grief!  We folks are made up of far fewer elements than these machines
we try to love and even WE do not follow the owner's manual all that
well!!!
