I'm surprised the Pilot can actually handle the weight of the V; what are the specs on the Pilot as far as towing?

Pilot is rated for 4500 lbs, one of the things I checked before buying. They do recommend/require you to add a transmission oil cooler if you are going to tow. Fortunately mine had it already. Like I said I really think it tows better than my Silverado. (albeit it is only a 3/4 ton with a 6 cyl)

I have never had to do a multi-carb O/B but I have done many other carbs including multi-carb motorcycles......with a can of carb cleaner and a few bristles from a wire brush (to poke through the small passages that are full of gunk) you can have it done in no time.
