      So Today I have to admit I had my head way up my a$$. Customer stopped by and had a broken carb heat cable. Went and looked, okay, the old cable would still work, so we hooked it up again in the cable bug, it broke! So Pulled out the entire cable, cutting zip ties, removing the forward console panels (2-seater), and then grabbing a serviceable cable. Taking out the center of the serviceable I then realized what a mistake I had made removing the cable outer sheath from the plane. Oh well, so I apologized to the owner, did not charge for any labor and gifted the inner cable core.

      Okay, Ken, you can quit laughing! Barry, I have an idea for a new t-shirt line…….

      Enjoy All!
