I had run about 2.5 gals through the engine. I was going to replace the con rod  after this jug of fuel was done.
anyway I will have my car ready to go for the weekend after putting a few tanks through my back up engine

Parts arrived Wednesday so I was at the track last night and put 5 tanks of gas trough
my rebuilt motor. It even works RB motor is my back up again until I can find a
replacement conrod for it
