You can't...we can. Wes is on staff so he can move or get rid of whatever he wants.

I'd imagine it gets tiresome to post great info just to get torn down by someone that is just puking something back up they read somewhere else.


I was talking to him this morning as he was removing things. He said he just needs a break from the forums I bet he will be back in a few months or so.

I had always felt that Weston was on the little guy’s side, fighting for people like me who is naive and could easily be taken advantage of. He had saved me hundreds of dollars if not close to a thousand just on my fuel side. He shared with us many of the secrets that many of the larger companies have been overcharging us for, for many years.

These are just a few of the cats let out from him I remember:

The s300 John Deere application 62/68/.91 after his post I found reasonably priced on ebay.

The s400 John Deere application “race cover” some places were charging $300.00 for this option.

I believe he shared that John Deere PN 173157 a $500.00 turbo is the same thing that some western turbo shops were charging around $2000.00 or so for.

He shared with me Jon Links contact info and while some may argue they are not as good of quality as others, they were significantly lower cost than some other vendors rumored to have JL as their supplier.

He gave me personal tuning advice, and shared with me that some of the big fuel shops were selling only certain people in the pulling circuits special open delivery valves that were performing better. Well he pursued this and has developed this technology everyone, even the little guy like me.

Compd is much less valuable now that he is gone.

I feel for him, I've been in that situation before on some ATV forums. I too deleted information just because I got sick of hearing it.


It's a shame when someone comes here to help others and just gets ragged on. Such is the forum life, there will always be someone here doing it too. Not much that can be done about it.

Hopefully he'll be back.

Wow.
Even the PMs that he sent me are gone. I had his contact info saved there. Well I wish him well, and the great information he provided will be missed.

F%$K!

He can't delete your PM's.
You would have had to do that yourself.

That's to bad, I never really talked to him in person, but learned much by reading his threads. Deffinently a great mind. I wish him luck in whatever he does, but hope like heck that he comes back.

That's what I like about Weston. He made me use my head and dig for the answer myself. The thing that made me laugh the hardest was when everyone asked his age. The words from him that followed had thrown everyone on a loop.

One of the few guys that spoke up about the greed and money that the consumer is getting screwed out of.

Here's to Weston. Take care and hope to talk to you soon.
