The only Die Hard that has gone bad on me went at about 70 months (just less than 6 years), and the only reason for that is probably the fact that I didn't care for it regularly, and it ran dry. That must have been too much for it, because it never acted quite as well (even though I refilled and checked it regularly) and finally gave up a month or two later. I've got about 3 years on the Die Hard in my car now, and I haven't had any problems at all, which is good, since my 14 year old carburetor is showing it's age, and giving me problems starting the engine. Speaking of which, does anybody have any experience with aftermarket four-barrels? Brad Spear sdcrdcf!brad
