Yeah, we know about the first 3 minutes:

Minute 1: Sit down, pour glass of water, take two viagra
Minute 2: Get undressed, lay down, wait.
Minute 3: Watched Mary Ann and Ginger get warmed up

So, I too would like to know about the additional 2:57??

Obviously you fine gentlemen have mistaken me for a southern boy, we here in the north can go double that amount of time without even trying, maybe even 7 or 8 minutes ;)

the rebuild is done and it was pretty easy. I would have not tried it on my own, it was no problem for my younger brother. It took about five hours to get thru all six carbs. They were in good shape as far as not being dirty or gummed up. The float on one carb was way out of wack causing it to run lean and one main jet was very loose and two more were a little loose. Cleaned them all up , blew em all out readjusted all the floats, installed the rebuild kits and "wallah" immediate noticeable difference when we started it. Thru the whole procedure I did find a couple of potential fuel leaks on all the hoses up around the powerhead so I will replace them next.It would have been close to 1000.00 to have it done, cost me about 65.00 and five hours time.....very happy.....now just gotta get her belly wet
