    Gamma goat only goes Thirty Miles an hour..

    Whew you just saved me a ton of work I was ready to strip the tanks...... I broke down the air filter and it was indeed clean so I might daringly adjust the govenor. I think i might just bring it to a diesel guy since I have the mechanical ability of Anne Frank Joe
