Hmmm.... seems that I have smoked a few C1 wiring harnesses too...
I try to stay away from smoking those wiring harnesses, hard on the lungs, I think, there's gotta be a lot of tar in that tape.... now, sniffing windshield sealer, that's another story...
I’ve just obtained my first rattle can of 3M’s new spray-on orange peel for NCRS judging use. I followed the directions on the can, which say to stand on to top rung of an eight-foot stepladder and spray over your shoulder in the general direction of the car, after a four-boilermaker lunch. Apparently this approximates the care with which old Corvettes were painted originally. It worked satisfactorily, I got full paint credit, but I have permanent goosebumps on my neck, my wife’s Taurus, and my Dobermann’s nose. How do you get this stuff off?
Oh, I see some of you use Lucas Electric. I’m sorry to hear that, however, I have a left over case of these important ready spares if you need one.
I think you used the wrong word, "important" vs "import" as that smoke is made in the UK. The GM service part number was 8 digits. I wonder if GM sourced their smoke from Lucus? Anyway, my parts books shows 34734887, easy number to remember if one extracts the correct letters off a phone keypad.
There is a funnel shaped object mounted on a flexible pipe in many fighter/bomber aircraft cockpits and we used to tell the new ground crew guy that it is used to talk to the fella working in the nose gear wheel well and he should put it up against his face and try speaking into it.
Well - its really the pilot's 'relief tube' that the throttle-jockeys urinate in on a long mission. There were some fist fights over that one.
i would always test the one in my helicopter by pouring water in it from my canteen. The ground crew would occasionally plug the exit tube with grease and mid-pee it would back up all over you.
