If you know AMCA member and carburetor guru Cotten, you were probably surprised to see him associated with a different company in a tech column in the November/December issue of the AMCA magazine. In fact, if you know Cotten well, you probably thought, "What idiot wrote that?"
Well, as it turns out, that idiot was me.
Cotten has been performing services at his shop in Lacon, Illinois, for years using his own PEEK (polyetheretherketone) intake-manifold seals, which he pioneered back in 2000. Unfortunately, that's not what it says on page 66 of the AMCA mag, and that's my fault entirely.
So, if you like the guide to understanding old carburetors in the Nuts & Bolts column ("Watching Your Carbs") in the November/December issue, please thank author David Lloyd, who did all the hard work before I managed to insert a mistake.
I apologize for confusing anybody.
