Ahh the early days when it rained every stinking year.
I remember that Tom always had to open the hood to shut the car off. I find the
dedication to not fixing that kind of endearing which is why I don't pick on
Randy for his. :)
I don't remember what was wrong with Tom's car that last year but it sure was
leaking bad...

Remember Tom from CT in the,early dsys? We all had to give him oil so he could fill it up and make it home. I miss that. I think it both burned and leaked.

So, what happened to Tom and his car? Did they both fade away? How old
was Tom?
My car might drip an odd drop but you wouldn't have to give me oil if I
was able to come.
One of you folks, maybe Curley, suggested a cable arrangement into the
car so that I could just pull on the cable to shut off the fuel without
opening the hood.
If I hadn't already obtained the part, I might have gone for that. It
seems very simple and basic. Use a choke cable or something similar. A
knob under the dash would be unobtrusive.
Why rely on vacuum when a simple cable would do the job. Maybe a bell
crank so it could pull straight?
And thanks for not picking on me Curt!!
