Parts and pieces

[old55pete]

 I was at the U Pick it today looking for parts for the Bronco. I found a few vans with windsor engines and serpintine belt systems. I also found a 84 E150 with the brackets and the Saganaw power steering pump on a 5.0/ 302. John, werent you looking for something like that?

[Machspeed]

Sure am! Sending you an email, Steve!

[Gary Lewis]

So, did you use the Assign function?????

[old55pete]

Yes sir, I did. I wanted to see if it would get John's attention and how quick the reply would be.


EDIT: Just as a heads up Gary, this reply assinged it's self to you, all on it's own.

[Gary Lewis]

It took 13 minutes.  That's quick!  Cool!!!!

[Gary Lewis]

Yes, it did assign to me as it apparently assumes that the person to which you are responding is the assignee.  I unassigned it.

But, I'm hoping to figure out how to make this a one-time thing.  Tag someone, they get the email, and that's it.  No need for priorities, now next person gets tagged, nada.

[Machspeed]

I'm bummed! It only had a priority of "3" on it!

Still laughing.................. Yes John I will go get the parts and hoses ASAP.

And another heads up there were a bunch of vans and pickups with carbed and EFI 460's

[Machspeed]

I'm in need of a throttle cable bracket if you're able to snag one from a carb'd 460 truck (not sure if a carb'd van is the same or not), EFI trucks have a different bracket. No worries if you can't find or grab one.

Picture below was borrowed from one of Gary's threads.

I will see if there is one and grab it and the bolts if they are there to be had

Gary, just so you know, I got an e-mail notice from every one that posted a reply on this post.

[Gary Lewis]

Steve - Did you tick the box to get alerts?  Did you "subscribe"?  Or were they "assignments"?

[old55pete]

After i assigned this to John, I did nothing else. I have tryed to subscribe to posts before and it has never worked. ai did not "tick" the box for alerts ether, so I dont know what to tell you. I am assuming this all happened because I assigned it to John

[Gary Lewis]

Yes, you got the email because you were tagged.  Not because you ticked the box, or not.  Thanks.

[old55pete]

Got it. Thank you sir

[salans7]

I assigned my initial reply to Steve at Level 3.
