Hey Folks,
You know Ole WG once wished that that parallel wiring "fix" had never become known as his. Apparently, he did not invent it but just applied it and liked the result.
Personally, I've always thought it was nothing more than a shortcut/band aid.
Tony and I have no issue with members saying something doesn't work. We'd just prefer that the something doesn't become the other member.
Frank, civil, criticisms will never provoke an edit on our part. WG used to be a regular poster here, I wonder how things might have been different had the thrashings he received here been more objective.
I don't want to start a thread about WG. I just want to be sure our (the mods) position is understood.

Bill,
i regret that you feel i am out of line ...you and tony and the owner of this site consistantly have a very liberal hand in running this site. that being said, there are more than a handfull of folks that have been past or present members that have had less than full smile dealings with the above mentioned vendor....a lot of posts in the past regarding this person in a negative light have been nuked.....any negative postings about this person werent the work of dreams, they were real deals with real money.....your position is understood, i just hope the position of the general population is understood.......keith
Keith,
Point considered!
However discussions about business practices are very much more difficult to manage.
I cannot address what has passed but I will defend any member who makes a civil, objective post, complaining about another member's conduct, business or otherwise.

I in fact do know that this was not WGs mod and as this mod is concerned I do wish that his name was not associated with it. And i also want to go on record as saying, that even thou I have trashed the aforementioned in the past it has been because of actual services to do with carburetors and in this case I wish his name was not associated and I agree with you that the mod itself is a lazy mans short cut and disassociate it with WG. Since it is always the same group that is in this "Trashing" I vote that we OFFICIALLY give this BS Mod a new name.

If we call it the band-aid coil mod will all be forgiven. I think it sounds better
"Band Aid Coil Mod" Sounds good to Me!

Thanks for the reply Bill....I think at this point, you and i and the general consensus have a basic understanding of what is allowed and what borders on slamming induced barrel time going forward......keith

Hay Bill Since you have the power, why don't you remove the (WIREDGEORGE) from the title of this post. and Insert (BANDAID) or (BS)

Agreed and working on it.
