Drop...just curious, why did you rebuild? The reason I ask is I have a old 2 stroke that might need a rebuild. It runs good, starts good and develops power, but the mechanical noise it makes is very loud.

That's a silly question. It's a beer thread. Men & boys take things apart and try to put back together so they can drink beer in the garage or basement while tinkering.

That's the only reason I can imagine to have a Wombat.

Working on a wombat you need a Coopers or at at least a Fosters to keep the world level.

Russian beer goes with Urals, and if might fly with a CZ's

Lane;

The Wombat was in pieces when I got it. I stripped the motor 2 years ago and have finally got around to assembling it.

Maybe I should have had a Widmer beer or something out of eastern Oregon, but I did have an Okanagan Springs 1516 when I got this far yesterday.............











Any old 2 stroke sounds like it is going to blow up mainly due to the resonance between the cylinder/head cooling fins!

Now..........get back to the beer thread!!

Fixed it for you!


If it says light, or lite, it isn't beer, more like fizzy water strained through burlap feed bag.

Thanks! Lol. I drink this for hydration purposes only...it's cheaper than bottled water.

All kidding aside... I love all beer...IPA, euro beers, Asian beers...and the stuff I used to buy in South America..all the way down to this. I don't think I have ever had a beer I did not like. I like them a little cooler than room temp., normally mix a cold one with a warm one...perfect. I have cut back drinking during the week though...just needed to cut some weight and could find any other way
to make the S lighter.

Be safe,
Lane

Lane, you coming out to play the end of April/first of May? (GMR weekend)

I plan on being down in that time period, I think Dee is planning on being around Blue Ridge Campground that time too.
