<p>On my third attempt I hit the jackpot: a NAPA close to Fort
Belvoir *gave* me some choke rod clips that weren't even in
their inventory anymore. The guy behind the counter referred to
them as "Jesus clips," although I have no idea why. </p>
<p>I'll try shorting the brake
switch terminals tonight, although I'll need a friend to tell me
if the brake lights are working. Would anybody like to be my
friend?</p>
