The problem is more that some simple question have no simple 
answers. They would require a book or an entire article to be 
written.

Take for example the sweep tube question. I think the question 
was on substitute tubes. By the time someone has a reliable 
answer, they would have had to do hours of research, and for what? 
To pick another sweep tube that isn't available either??

The last time I held a sweep tube in my hands was 15 years ago!

6146's won't work, 811A's won't work, anything but another sweep 
tube would be a bitch to install and only a few sweep tubes will 
work. Most or all of them are obsolete.

There is no reason to get upset with others just because a 
question has no simple solution or easy answer!!! If you don't get 
an answer, it's probably because no one knows the answer.
