Did AllanD pass away? If he did I,m so sorry! Been trying to find information on his fuel tank swap . So far i,ve looked thru 200 page of information and only have about 500 to go. If some one know where to find the write up it would save my eye sight . Thanks joey!

No, he is alive and kicking.

A few years ago he suffered a stroke, which effected his ability to type for a while. While I believe he has made a good recovery he also was having quite a bit of issue with the old forum software, and it's interaction with his browser, which had him fed up and staying away.

He was on and posting just this week though.

Why, to see who deserves the BIG "D" or to be the biggest "D", The "D" of all "D's"




or just to see who has more FORD sense.

LOL - I've met Allan. I don't belong in the same conversation. We may not agree on everything, but he's as bright as they come. Ron certainly comes across as one of the best at diagnosing a problem that I've ever run across.

Don't underestimate Bobby either - the man is a mad scientist. He can have you wondering which way is up in a matter of seconds as he breaks out a new idea and tries to explain it to you. Operates on a whole different level than us mortals.

I have kinda chuckled to myself that it would be funny of RonD and AllanD were brothers or cousins...

Kinda like Tom Hanks is related to Mr. Rodgers. Ya just never know...

I spoke with bobby on the phone once... a year ago... I was breaking a sweat trying to keep up. I think he is a natural... they speak a different language.
