North Texas Carb Clinic - June 3rd 2006

Hi all,

A date and location has been set for the North Texas Carb Clinic (NTCC).

When? Saturday June 3rd 2006

Where? In the North Texas (Dallas, Texas) general area - at the home and garage-shop of Steve Fasano in DeSoto, Texas (that's just South of Dallas). He's got shade trees, a garage full of tools, and we'll have a couple of fans to keep our bikes' engines cool. If you'll contact me offlist, I'll get his physical address to you in plenty of time for the clinic.

Who? Well, this list is an XJ-Owners list.. but iffin' you don't ride an XJ to the clinic - we sure won't hold it against you. I'm also sending this notice to the folks who attended last year, and who have sent me a note this year to be included on the notice updates.

What? North Texas Carb Clinic. We'll work on your bike's idle mixture with a colortune plug... we can synch carbs.. (Morgan CarbTune II, and several others locally have a set of Motion Pro Carb sticks).. I've got a YICS tool to blank off that YICS passage when tuning... I'm sure that between the participants, we'll have plenty of food for a BBQ lunch and/or dinner, and I'll work on another donation from a major manufacturer of a certain treatment we all like to use (no promises, though - until I hear back from them).

If you happen to have a YICS tool, colortune plug, or carb-sticks (or CarbTune II) - feel free to bring them - as more will help with dialing in everyone's carbs in a quicker manner.. then we can head out for an end-of day run - and maybe out to dinner as a group - for those who wish to.

If you would like to be kept on my personal NTCC email contact list - feel free to shoot a note to me off-list & let me know. (send to rex@treasureboards.com ). If you are close enough to make it, or know of another XJ'er who is close enough - pass along my info - or contact me offlist, and I'll keep you up to date as we get details pinned down.

Last year, at our first annual NTCC, we had 10 people & 9 running bikes there (the bike in 1000 pieces in my back yard doesn't count!). Jeffrey Covington drove in from Vicksburg, Mississippi, and Gary made it up from Austin, Tx. We missed having Duane Blanco from southern Louisiana - but maybe he can make it this year...
