Default Haven't Seen Roger Lately...

...is he still out there? I always enjoyed his well-informed posts.

His advice in this fuel pump R&R was of particular help to me. I learned a lot from his expertise and my own fumbling about. Never knew there was a bolt in front of the block to hold the pump/camshaft pushrod in place. The job got done.

Maybe he went somewhere real deep in Florida that doesn't have internet. Who knows. I copied this quote from his for sale add awhile back.

Perhaps he went from semi-retired to retired?? If so, I wish him well.

*Edit* - I should have read that thread thoroughly. I suspect Roger is now happily enjoying life in Florida. I say that as snow is predicted here tonight. Sometimes I think about the sunny climes and time-shares in winter.

Glad to hear it Ernie. Buy him a beer if you run into him, put it on Mike M's tab.

I had an electrical problem that I posted last week and had to solve it without him. I wish that he was moving next to me here in Florida how cool would that be!
