    TM You are some kind of a freak!!!!!

    West coast version oilpump housing is actually the same size,,, what is different is the internals,,, the cam lobe/plunger that the worm drives has a longer throw duration,,, producing more oil per revolution,,, you can order them from Stihl and change yourself pretty easy!!!!

    Humboldt County has illegally claimed about 50 feet of Siskiyou County, by placing their Entering Humboldt County sign at the wrong place by the Salmon River Bridge just out of Somes Bar. A Siskiyou County Boy told me this fact.
    He was on a campaign to take it back. Such is life along the Klamath River downriver from Happy Camp.

    Humboldt County? It was not good to be from Humboldt County or mention Humboldt County when living in Siskiyou County. In fact, one native Siskiyou County boy was on a mission to move the Entering Humboldt County sign as he said it was about 50 feet inside of Siskyou County and that was unacceptable. This sign was/is just outside of the metropolis of Somes Bar, which is downriver from the bigger city of Happy Camp, which was not a Happy Place despite it being located in Siskiyou County. Humboldt County is where the real Green Gold is.
