Address is 274 Jackson Pines Road, Jackson, NJ. My cell phone is 310 707 8245. I have reasonable tool selection, and a lift, should it come to that, but don't expect to do anything complex. I can debug and fix most any electrical problem. We can do oil changes (including discussion of the $2000 o-ring), valve adjust (though that'll be a problem unless the engine is sufficiently cool), carb adjustments. I do NOT have a tire changing machine, so unless we want to do it with tire irons, that's probably out. Call if you have any questions.

I traveled to the Wellsboro, PA area yesterday and stopped at a Sheetz to refuel my car. They have "blender pumps" where various octane are dispensed through one nozzle, depending upon the octane you select. At this Sheetz, near the intersection of PA 6 & 15, you had the choice of 3 nozzles. The yellow covered nozzle was "flex fuel" which contained from 15% to 83% ethanol. The blue covered nozzle was E15 (15% ethanol) & was 85 octane. The green covered nozzle was for the 10% ethanol in octanes 87, 89 or 91. There was posted a small note stating that E15 was for 2001 & later vehicles, but who pays attention to those little notices/stickers? You DO NOT want to use E15 in your motorcycle or any small engine such as a lawnmower, etc. Of any production year. I personally know that E15 makes my truck run poorly & it is a later model than 2001. I am sure that this station was not the only one of its type in PA. There are many other name brands out there that probably do the same.

What should we look for when we fuel up? I'm in Northern NJ as well and 0 ethanol is hard to find if not impossible. For what it's worth, I have a 77 r100/7 and many small engines (leaf blower, lawn mower, weed whacker, snow blower).

Steve has some neat vintage BMW's and collectibles that are quite nice and rare. The tech day will take place in a 2-bay garage, with one lift, and plenty of space (gravel driveway) outside. If you have a more complex project, contact Jean Lachaud (jean at beheme.info) ahead of time, so that any special tools and other requirements can be arranged, if possible. A Grok Harmonizer carb tool for synching and adjusting carbs will be available, as well as electrical supplies and tools. As always, remember to bring your own fluids and parts, and special tools if you need them. If a parts run is necessary, Mount Kisco is about 35 minutes and 2 lights from Max BMW store in Brookfield, CT, which closes at 3 pm on Saturdays. ** PLEASE RSVP **: Let us know you're coming so we can plan for enough food! We'll start around 9am with bagels and custom roasted coffee by coffee importer Steve Bauer, and later a grill lunch (dogs and burgers, sodas, etc.) A $10 contribution for food & beverages is requested. Please e-mail Steve at cotyledoncoffee at gmail.com for more info and directions: Steve Bauer: Address: 14 Woodland Rd, Mount Kisco, NY 10549 Home Tel. 914-864-2267 Steve Cell: 914-960-9669 Address Notes: We are not easy to find! There is more than one "Woodland" near Mount Kisco which can confuse navigation systems. We are NOT Woodland Street, Avenue or Lane, etc. We are Woodland Road, which is off Crow Hill Road. NOTE: Remember that trailers and commercial vehicles are not allowed on Parkways. * Best route North/South is the Saw Mill River Parkway to the Mount Kisco exit (No. 34), go West (left turn) on Route 133 to Crow Hill, go North (right turn) on Crow Hill at the white church to the stop sign, then left (still Crow Hill Road) to the first right on Woodland Road. It is a gravel road so drive slowly. Follow the signs at the pond to 14. Total from SMRP exit is about a mile. * Also possible is via Route 100 to Crow Hill (heading East) to Woodland Road. Crow Hill Road is easily accessed from NY Routes 100 and 133. Both routes can be accessed at Exit 8 (Millwood) of the Taconic State Parkway. Mount Kisco is easily accessed on NY Routes 133, 117 and 172, as well as exit 34 of the Saw Mill River Parkway, and exit 4 of I-684.
