ATTN: Beware of the Abominable Snoman!

LMAO · 2006-10-27T16:21:55+00:00

The abominable Snoman is a large hairy bubba like creature associated with the seldom snow covered regions of the Ohio between Indiana and Pennsylvania. He is also known as Snojob, Snoboy, idiot, and many foul names. One would think the sightings of the Abominable Snoman are rare but sadly that is not the case. The Abominable Snoman avidly makes his presents well known in many groups. Some of these groups are: " alt.rv The Snoman can exceed 300 post in one months time. That's more than 10 post per day which one can conclude that the Snoman has no life outside of the internet. One would think with such extensive amounts of post in automotive related groups that the Snoman would have an extensive background in automotive service and repair.

The Snoman has no regard for the pH balance, freeze protection, or boiling point requirements for modern automobiles as the Snoman simply relies on the visual appearance of the coolant in a 50+ year old tractor. The Snoman is also a big conundrum in the sense that the Snoman will rant with claims of the oil industry price gouging but at the same time pointlessly recommend the higher priced higher octane gas for vehicles that do no require nor benefit from it. And where does the Snoman come up with the facts that this will improve HP and gas mileage? From non other than the Snoman himself. A simple Google search would turn up many first hand sources clearly stating that higher octane gas has often hurt their gas mileage and shown harder cold start issues in vehicles not rated...

Irrelevant.

Oh, you've had it apart. That explains it! You couldn't get it running again so you shitcanned the EFI, slapped a carburetor and mechanical distributor in it to get it running but forgot to mention those subtle details.

Anyone (even you) can find a picture of a TBI distributor online and clearly see that there is no mechanical advance provision in that distributor. Here's one from NAPA online
