What, I get no love for saving another of my favorite engines?
I guess, if it makes you feel better, but I still would have run it. I've seen cars drive weeks with loose/broken/misaligned rocker arms, bent/worn pushrods, guides that were so worn they no longer served a purpose and all sorts of nightmarish things they shouldn't....and they kept right on ticking. I don't believe him doing so would be the overdramatize equivalent to pulling the pin on a grenade That you outlined, but to each their own.What, I get no love for saving another of my favorite engines?
You know how it goes,...what you get/got away with, and what running examples of carnage you can cite does not make it worth running the risk of engine damage for the sake of a missing .99 part.I guess, if it makes you feel better, but I still would have run it.

Personally, I wouldn't think twice about using it minimally, with some easy driving for a day or two till the part came in, but if it's going to make his butthole pucker doing so, he should probably wait.

Well, you know what they say about carburetors. At the end of the day, they're little more than a controlled fuel leak.I've swapped out carburetors 30 times on an engine.
I only burnt one of them to the ground as a result.

I use them sparingly. That way, when you see that I "liked" something that you said,....You know that I liked it.Dang! A double like from the two hardest likes to get on Stangnet! I'm on fire tonight.
