    Is that knibbin pin to the left or to the right of the knubbin? I can never remember. A friend installed a knubbee to hold the knibbin pin in but he was running on winter air in July. Long story short -- it didn't work.

    Yeah Dave, but you've had experience, know the clearances by heart and have the proper Freebisher wrenches. Consider the poor newbie.
