BTW Henry Ford didnt invent the automobile, he simply made it affordable.

To me, the JRSC is just like that starter bike that you're gonna replace in a few months with something faster...but hell if u can get one cheap, why not!

What I understand, with return style, a progressive fuel regulator is used. Maybe the question should be OBO 1 vs OBO 2 or '95 vs the rest. If there is a link , post it for me.
