RE: Convert points to electic

[Rich Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

We all have those problems these days. It seems the gas evaporates very 
rapidly out of the float bowls. I know if my car sets in the garage a 
few days it really smells like gas in there. The gas with all the 
oxygenation and ethanol is probably a cause. Fuel injection is a closed 
system so it doesn't show up there on the newer stuff.
