Good news re Chuck in Indiana
« on: March 16, 2016, 05:21:06 PM »
 OK , for those of you who didn't know , Chuckie had some major surgery yesterday , he weighs a couple of lbs less now . Anyway , he is recovering well , surrounded by family and cute nurses . Apparently the hospital flew Roper's other brother in to perform the operation , as Chuckie says he feels great but there is diagnostic equipment and tubing going in and out of him that is marked Magnetti Marrelli . The doc said he might need a remap  :laugh:

 Seriously , I am glad our friend is thru this , he is in good spirits , and will return shortly to his rightful place here  :thumb:

 Oh , he did say that in lieu of flowers , a case of 20W50 Motul for the Aero Lario would be great  :grin:

Thanks for sharing Dusty.

Hopefully they used a hoseclamp on a few of those hoses!

Hope your recovery goes as well as it can Chuck.

Didn't realize Chuck was going in so soon.  Glad you updated us on his status, Dusty.

And Chuck, get the hell out of that hospital asap.  They like to do bad things to you in there!  :evil:

Glad to hear Chuck has had the work done and is on his way to recovery.

Hang in there Chuck.  Get well soon.

Chuck-

Make sure to tell the doctors to be careful with those parts- some are NLA.   There are some with superceded numbers from a new supplier- but they never seem to fit right. Make sure you follow the break in period and change the lube and filter.

Motul?????  Does he think this is the BMW forum?  Sheeesh.  How about some used suspenders and a six pack of Walmart recycled oil?  Glad to hear he's doing ok, thanks Dusty.

And add a hose clamp. Cheers and endeavor to persevere.

Get well quickly, Chuck. And remember that if your weight has changes you may want to look at your suspension settings.
