Well, A buddy of mine has caught me in the act. He heard me telling a story (to outboard owning friends) about how pleased I've been with the A4 in "TA" recently. He has some old neglected A4 in a donated sailboat he wants help with.
So, I am going to the boat today to get my tool box (a few A4 specific tools in there) my spare fuel pump, spare carb & backup distributor plate (with points & condensor installed) to carry with me. - He says it will turn over & has compression, but he needs help with the ignition & some tricks to get the fuel system cleaned out. I might take a known good set of spark plugs too.
"I need to get the engine running so the 'kids' (Scouts, maybe?) can sail it around and get it out of the marina."
I think we'll be doing this tomorrow afternoon..wish me luck.
Anything else I should add to my list?
