Thank you, everyone!!

Cat, the throttle shaft did have some slop,but I don't think it is too much. Just a tiny bit, although I hadn't thought of that causing vacuum leaks. And yes I did measure for the rear crossmember. The factory only had 2 under the bed floor, but I'm putting 3. One lined up for the frame and the other 2 spaced front-back, just for more support. I do appreciate the reminder, it's easy to forget!

TJ, Well I'm actually home-schooled, and I'm the youngest in the family therefore the only student left. Although I wouldn't mind teaching at a trade school or something, as a future job, I might actually enjoy that. Although I don't think I'm knowledgeable enough, I still have much to learn. Even outside of cars, if you haven't noticed my writing is not really superb!! I don't t know how my photos work, I just upload from gallery and it's alway worked! I don't really know why they come out bigger.

Bm, when I move the throttle the metering rod comes up and the accelerator pump shaft moves. All pretty quick with throttle movement. So it's probably okay, I must have just not paid enough attention to how it was before.

Teaching is a noble profession. It is in my opinion the most important thing some humans can provide to others. It creates evolution. Without it we don't survive very well.

Your a little too hard on yourself 56', people who are not knowledgeable enough are easy to spot. They know it all and don't need any help. They don't listen very well. They are often wrong and spend a lot of time and money on the wrong things.

We all have much to learn till the day we die, trust me!

Your writing is superb. LarrBeard will attest. If LarrBeard approves your writing, that's all that matters.

No one fully understands the photo's! In most cases it appears to be a "cell phone thing". With my Android, if I hold the phone horizontally, with the bottom of the phone to my right, the photo's are correct. I think.
