Hey Pete didn't i see somewhere where someone ground off the rubber and put a champher on what was left of the metal
part of the FSS and it worked just fine.

I did do a search but i could get nothin.

I ground mine down, then I saw the hole thru the end of it. So I welded it up, cleaned the end off smooth and put it in. It's been in about 2 years now, and it shuts off 99% of the time. Sometimes after I warp on it it will sit there and keep barely turning over and I have to stall it. But not often.
