As it turned out, I ordered the parts from Aviall and installed 'em this
evening. Hopefully the carb bowl will stay nicely attached for a long
time...

In order to make sure the bolts didn't turn, I used a nail set to
punch the ears down tight around the bolt head flats. Next time I
intend to use drilled fillister head screws and safety wire.

I was going through the pass between Flagstaff and Kingman and when I
reduced power the engine quit cold. fortunately I was still at 10,000
ft. It would restart and run at full power, but not at a lower
setting, so I had to fly downhill fast to Kingman and land dead
stick... don't want to do that no mo!
