Keith,
That's sooo SWEET! There aren't that many kero burners that are hit & miss. Are
all the Economy kero burners setup that way? ISTR that Dave's 12 hp Herc kero
burner was T/G.
So, you've got the full set of Hercs and just need a 12 hp Economy for a full set of
those? EXCELLENT. What's next; a full set of Spartas? 8-))
See ya, Arnie
