We got my BT7 running this afternoon, and after only about 7 minutes, we 
could put the choke in and it would idle smoothly.  I want to change the 
oil after tomorrows run, but I'm not sure I remember the secret way that 
Bruce told us to do it.  Do you first jack up the front end until you 
can slip a jack under the rear end, or vice versa.  Also I remember that 
the front end was jacked up with a block of wood across the floor jack.  
Where does this block rest?  When it is on stands, where do the stands 
rest both fore and aft?

Appreciate your help.  It is amazing what I've forgotten in the four 
years that my Tri-carb has lived alone in the garage trapped at the end 
of this 3 miles of rocky road.
