Hi Guys!

Anybody can refer me to somebody that have some 165 Franky parts? My intake tube on the right side from carb to intake is kaput, the little lip is crack half way around at intake end.
Found that during my annual inspection. Funny how it came up. Look up the intake, oops, one bolt missing. Tried to insert new bolt, gasket moved. The hell with it, let's remove the intake and put a new set of gaskets. removed intake, found r/h side intake tube cracked at lip/flange half way around.
This is after removing the muffler to get it welded for a crack. Domino effect. But good findings. Yes, good because rather find this during annual than during the Fly-In season.

Give Bob Marshall a try, he helped me out with a fuel pump, sounds like he has quite a few parts. He also has a 14-13-3 less engine that he would like to sell. He's in northern MN, phone number is 218-587-5621. Good luck, Rich
 
Thanks Guy, Just one tube is good! or maybe I shoudl get a spare right! Thanks anyway.
I will call
Alain.
