throttle stuck temporarily

[napamikey]

It seems napa now gets something major every 15 years. In 2000 we had a 5 that was extremely localized but cleaned all the shelves in the supermarkets. Now a 6 in 2014. I wonder if it has to do with all the water we use for the vines, we have always had a high water table but I hear it has been dropping fast.

That 8v71 has been a champ on the hills and it's hard not top hit the pedal to the metal!  No smoke at all, other that at cold start.  Delo 100 is magic!  I will check the springs as I think something definitely stuck on the inside. One other thing the is the radiator misters. Drops temp 15+ degrees on the hills, would not travel without them.

Hi Dave, sorry to hear about your sisters earthquake troubles, thanks for responding, it would be great to have a congregation of 5A's at the Dam Rally this year, hope to see you guys there, tom, lvmci...

Thanks for the invite Tom, but we don't have a 5A we have a 5C, LOL And would love to be there but the wife has a lot of shows this year and we are just to busy this time of year to get that way. One year who knows we may just show up. Heck I work harder now that I am retired than I did when I had my business. I've been remodeling a bathroom master bedroom at the Ranch for almost a year now but I have been doing it by myself. A few months more and I may actually get it done. Unless I take a nap in the afternoon or go out and look for materials all afternoon!......
