Head gaskets back in!

Post by Ashley » Tue Feb 07, 2023 11:27 am

Finally it seems the copper head gasket supply is back to normal. We got our last shipment in this week and it feels great to not have those out anymore. It seems like all the production issues have been resolved.

That’s great! Good to see that happening. I’ve read that the T ignition switch rebuild kits were scarce. I’ve haven’t bought one lately and was wondering about that. Thanks for your good work!

I’ve read that the T ignition switch rebuild kits were scarce.

If a switch's problem is a warped backing plate, which it often is, that's usually an easy fix. I didn't know that until I opened up a switch and saw what was the matter with it.
The inevitable often happens.
