Whoa! I had a bad day of relay's not working (new out of the box) and a float bowl issue with my new 1050 QFT 4150. I'm now thinking that my day was pretty darn good.

Sorry a bout the mishap and thank you for sharing. I'll put that on my list of things not to do.

How is you friend taking it?

Tim is trying to consol me. He wants me to try again, I'm not sure I want to take another chance though. I have been beating myself up for 4 days now and I havn't started to write the checks yets. I will bounce back, maybe I will stick with 9 second cars from now on.

Take it from a guy that seems to be able to fix everyone's stuff but his own...you will get there.

After my new starter relay was DOA out of the box, my brand new QF 1050AN needed float modifications to stay running, and then not one but two Hayden fan controllers were DOA it seemed like I should have spent the day weeding the garden and drinking beer with the missus. Needless to say I didn't get the brakes bled or test the 2-step, line lock, or purge solenoid like I had planned. This is all being done to a car that was running, driving and taking home some $$$ three years ago when I parked it at my mom's farm in the heated building that I built. Her boyfriend pushed it outside to "do woodworking" and left the drivers window down for two years and was nice enough to fire it up for me every once and a while...

I feel your pain sir...how can fun suck this much?

Let us know how the rebuild goes!

Larry,
That's a huge lesson but don't give up. That mistake can be made in a 9 second car as well. Get back on the horse

Ouch!!! That sucks. It's worse than you thought then. At least you have the skills to get it going again . Get your license otherwise you'll kick yourself later. You probably needed something to do after work in your spare time. Clint
