I was out of town a couple of days and haven't been able to respond. Thanks for your response. I tried to be very careful not to turn or move anything. I did not check the timing marks when I put the cover back on, I only focused on getting the plastic governor gear meshed properly. I don't even know where the timing marks are. Considering that it won't even try to start, gets a good spark, and after pulling the cord numerous times gas will be visible in the carb cover around the choke plate, along with an occasional backfire, it does sound like the timing is off. Do you have any advice on setting the timing or maybe a website that might help? Obviously, I'm not an expert mechanic and hate to remove the engine again, but it looks like that's where I'm headed. Thanks again.

What browser are you using? In my case it was the version of Chrome that I was using. Now that Chrome has updated again, all is well. It was okay in Firefox also. I don't use Internet Explorer, so I don't know about that one. If you are using XP rather than Win 7 or 8, then the latest version of IE you can use is version 8, so you would be better off using Firefox or Chrome, in my opinion. Be sure to read all the posts in the thread zep gave you, as they are very helpful.

I have a sofa that is all down and an absolute cloud for cuddling into. Definitely not everyone's cup of tea, sort of Alice-in-Wonderlandish with mixed up fabrics and trims, but an all-time favorite of ours. It's made by Zimmerman. I'm wondering if the Domain sofas were, too. So that manufacturer may be something to look out for, if the CL one doesn't pan out. I don't see mine on the site (it's five years old now), but here are some ideas. Here is a link that might be useful: Some of the pieces

Beam. Do you mean the whole structure including the passthrough opening is there now? I thought it was just the door. You mean, you're narrowing the opening now? [oh, you have no idea what a thrill it is that I remembered how to do this...] Yes... I guess. That long wall is currently holding a big, broad opening at too-high passthrough height. There is a "keen" or maybe that's meant to be "beam" (English is not our builder's native language] that's vertical and a beam high across the top of the passthough that ends in it, unfortunately not the entire length of the long wall. (does that make any sense at all?) On the elevation you can just make out a dotted line oblong that traces the current opening. The door would be cut down from it to the floor. And a chunk would be walled over on the left side. sink-closer-to-wall argument was about evaluating plllog v. rhome: sink across from fridge vs sink in corner. OK, here's what I think will happen. I'll reach into the fridge and get out an onion and celery and an eggplant and zucchini and broccoli and a bunch of carrots and kale and a bunch of chard and set these bit by bit on the counter to the right of the fridge. I'll close the fridge, grab the bunches and toss them in the sink. I'll scoop up the rest and plop them to the left of the sink. I'll wash the bunches, leave them drying in the sink (hey, maybe the reef should be to the left and not to the right) and slide to the left, toward the corner and the range and start chopping and dicing, etc. Then I'm already in position, once that's done, to swivel-and-plllop into something hot on the stove. Were the sink in the corner, instead, I'd be dumping all onto the island to the right of the sink, sliding to wash and then reaching and pulling into place somewhere to the left of the sink for prepping, or prepping to the right of the sink and then needing to truck the prepped stuff around the sink to its left and closer to the range. I think this feels more awkward.... I'm getting confused... I must have posted something way-wacky. I don't think I suggested sticking the Stages in the island. I think that would take up the whole island! But the sink I had thought to add in the island also includes an integrated reef; it seemed like a good feature to have in an island, as suggested by juliekcmo (I think that's her name; apologies if I have it wrong). It does seem as if the e-granite harmony sink I was thinking about might just be too small, rhome. Maybe I need to skip the integrated drainboard though on an island it seemed very sensible. I could look into grooves on the island top, but that seems likely to be expensive. I can also just carry on as per usual with spread towels and drying racks as necessary. I suppose forgoing the integrated reef permits more flexibilty to dry to either right or left of the sink. And I guess if push comes to shove, I'd rather the limited space be used on fully submerged sink than half-useful sink/wet-drying space.
