shrapnel knobs and cheap chips

[Doyt W. Echelberger]

Hi Mike........I've noticed the reduced gas mileage with the QLCC, and
probably because it is running richer. Haven't checked the plugs yet, but
they were running white with the resistor mod, and the mileage was better
with the resistor mod.

I'll pull a few plugs later this week, when I have some time, and report.
