we had something similar but didn't require sources. we where graded more on presentation and what we learned moreso then where we got the information. most didn't know what the Internet was as it was just barely getting started and we for sure didn't have any. closest we had to internet was the fax machine

I don't remember which encyclopedia we had. In fact I pretty much tried to forget everything about school. Not exactly where a hardhead like me flourishes. I did do lots of research papers on animals though, and definitely remember having to write down my sources. I was really into wildlife back then. I wanted to be a Game Warden. Then the law and me didn't really see eye to eye and I fell in love with working with my hands and playing in the dirt.
I've been trying to find a used set but they're kind of hard to come by. I can find them for Ford's all day long but not 8x6.5
I think I got the last set that was still available in the country at the time. I wasn’t really wanting to buy as I won’t need for 6 months but I couldn’t say no
Hell I did my first report in the 3rd grade. I did it on the Hoover Dam. Took the tour and got literature and everything and the rest came from the encyclopedia. Got an A on it and and as a matter of fact still have it hehe. But yeah had to do the sources and all that good stuff.
"Tell Me Why" books were some of my favorites as a kid in the '70s.
To follow up on the zero turn, it was the fuel shut off solenoid. Those damn things are uber expensive by themselves, so I just bought a cheap Chinesium carb complete on Amazon for $50. Put that on yesterday, engine runs like normal again.
