Well guys I broke down "TWICE" last Friday. I too decide to drive my Cobra to work. At noon I head for the gym. On the way She starts coughin, and sputterin. So my engine guys is a mile past my gym, so I "barely" get Her there. After 3 hours we decide the fuel regulators is toast and with a 30psi fuel pump I'm soakin Her with Fuel. Replace it and She starts up and runs great. I take off for home. 5 Miles away ......nothing.....She dies and this time no chance of moving. For the first time in 100years I don't have my cell on me, so I spot a local Police officer who is in the process of arrest some poor sole on the side of the road. I tell him my problem and he calls a tow truck. Well after the officer sends off the felon in another car he joins me to help devert traffic, Oh by the way my cobra isn't register yet. Of course he runs the plates and comes out of the car with a couple questions. Nice guy I immediately told him I'm in the process of getting it licenced and he cut me a solid. Anyway I spend an hour coaching the flatbed operater how to load the car, between his picture taking he did a good job. Get it back to the engine guy who spends the night trouble shooting, and figures out the Carb is shoot, my second defective Demon in 550 miles. Anyway Demon made good and got me another new carb and I was off and running Saturday morning.

Fun day
