Ok, you want a response..
Try this, If for any reason I was to become unable to drive my car, I would be quite proud to have Jennie behind the wheel. At least till one of my own kids was up to the task.
She is by far not only of the better drivers I've met but she is also a great person overall.
I agree that I'm by no means a force to be reckoned with or someone that you should dread lining up against but as long as I can still get behind the wheel I will continue to do my best to hold my own.
Besides, I don't think she could come to terms with dying her hair blue

Sounds like there's hope for her yet
As for the carb, while I wont pretend to know anything about E85 My Alky carb has a 50 and a 30 cc pump. I think the 50 is in the front but I could be wrong.
Also, a lean out valve is a sure fire method of getting heat in the motor. Getting the oil hot is paramount as I learned at the Mo Power race. Sometimes I would have the LO valve open till I was ready to do my burnout.
I have had to, when it's real cold, pour gas down the throat of the carb to get it to fire for the first time in the morning. After that it wasn't an issue. I've also found that if I give it a pump, then start the motor spinning and then lite it it would fire easier.
I also don't turn the fuel pump on till after the motor is running as Alky can easily overcome the needles and pour out the boosters.

Now back to this Carb,,Not sure I like it !! the driveability Of this thing $ucks..way too cold blooded and once it wram up trying to give it light throttle it hesitation trying to just move the car a little in the staging lanes the Rpms drop down to far it dies..say below 700-800. It will once warm sit there and idle at 150 deg all day long. but over all it don't run cooler . It is a little slower and and so far I do not see it more consistent. I got away from the hesitation on the line by raising the launch rpms by 300 rpms But that makes it way to easy to red eye..Not good. I now have 90-97 jets and .055 squirters in it with pink cam on #2 hole.Dumping alot of fuel in there. after the run turn off the track look at the Temp it is 205 degs ..180 when I stage 150 pulling in to the water box.I am bout to put 50cc pumps on it ! Not sure what else to do to it
i am suprised that it doesnt already have 50 cc pumps. i pretty sure you have way too much jet in it. Too much fuel will make it stall after a rump. And if you use the 50 cc pumps i bet your hesitation will go away.
Or... if you send me 20$ and the carb ill take care of it.

I found my old combo wanted a lot of pump shot when I foot braked from 1800 on E85, Ended up with 50cc pumps front and back and 50 shooters. 60' times got better till I ended up there. This was on a Indy headed 408 with a hp950. My you will need at least 1 50cc pump to get the pump shot duration you need(the bigger the shooter the faster the pump is empty) when the carb is happy I think you will be happy with e85's performance/cost.
