Arpok and I stopped at the annual Memorial Day Boy Scout Pancake Breakfast that's held at the Elburn American Legion.

The old Jeep is also a fixture out front every Memorial Day. I'm not sure if it's a CJ-2A or 3A. Cool old rig.

It is a CJ-2A. The 2A has a split wind shield 3A has one peice wind shield.

Thanks for the info.

New petcock installed yesterday afternoon. It's not a vacuum style, so I have to remember to open and close it. That's the tough part.

I didn't see any crud on the reserve side filter of the vacuum petcock. Actually, it was very clean, so the problem is internal. It's the same unit used on a lot of large Japanese bikes, so a repair kit shouldn't be too hard to chase down.

Note to self:Make and place sticker next to speedo that says, 'Gas Off?' Probably, 'Gas On', too.

Man, I am outta shape. I replaced the pusher tire yesterday and I still hurt this morning. My original plan was to mount the new tire on the spare rim, move the pusher to the sidecar, and relegate the sidecar to spare duty. I did mount the new tire to the spare rim but one look at the pusher tire told me I should have changed it a few hundred miles ago.:shrug:

sux getting old!

Yes, but beats the alternative.

It's been an epic week on Arpok.
It's gotten a new rear tire, new reaction arm bushings, got washed*, and had an F150 tank worth of fuel run through it. Still no new front hub. Probably an oil and filter change this week.

*Got caught in a downpour.
