Blackie is definitely custom so I believe im in right thread👊 While in WV a few issues happened to Blackie, the pull cable had rusted and broke in the m c cruise box, blackie has m c cruise, well it was giving me fits, idle and back to idle was killing me, I thought tps, stepper, but while Speedy was helping me set iscv and tps he noticed when i touched something while adjusting nut on stepper, the tps would move, it was me hitting the m c cruise box with the broke cable. So I disconnected the m c cruise and used return cable on pull side and with help from Sparky got that to tie down up top. Paul Fred others were pitching in to help as Blackie is hard to get to anything. And the clutch was slipping 🤷🏻, hangar is at my sons, 2 hours away but the ride out went smooth

Looks lonely in that building.
 
Thanks Boog, leaving no room for error as the widowmaker is still apart at home but close to running again 😎. Blackie will have our full attention in that hangar and there are no bolts or anything on floor so we will know real quick on clean up if we missed anything
