Mike Romain

I think he was taking about the wiring.....

The kit still doesn't take long and I don't mess with any parts or
adjustments that don't need to be messed with to clean them.

Ya I ment the wiring, I actually replaced my carb with the older CJ model,
same thing only no emissions stuff.

Like mike said, add the wires it's a lot cleaner and faster and as he's said
before it can be romoved fast....I sound like a parrot, but I dont wanna
take credit for Mikes sound advice
