At my age, my sexual fantasies are like what you just wrote.... my wife hopes my bike will blow up, but I sometimes quietly remind her I have known my bike two years longer than I've known her.....

You can also make a good valve cover gasket with the 1/32 gasket material they sell at Pep Boys. You need an X-acto knife and some patience, but they work well. Use the valve cover itself to draw the outside edge outline. Use the old gasket to draw the inner edge and holes.

I'll try and keep that in mind. I need to have her there to help me with my scout first. :evil: :evil: Plus, I don't drink so the whole beer thing is out of the question. Although she has never been afraid of holding a carb open on a car while trying to suck a fire of life back into the engine.
