No went out to the woods
Nahhh, just wrapped up this Honda job. Solenoid inside diff change. Not as bad as I thought.
Nothing as gratifying as the work @MOPARMITCH is doing... just very tedious spreadsheet work... My brain is fried but it's done.
Going to work on reinstalling that snowblower carburetor...probably flush the fuel tank beforehand
Had a SB here 2 weeks ago. I keep tellin this guy to use Stabil in the winter. Never listens. Yup carb. gummed up on SB, and everything else he has small enginewise......

Yes. Prior. Homeowner left it here... I doubt it's ever been run in the snow but found the manual choke linkage was broken and whatever fuel was in there has obviously been sitting for a while.
Fingers crossed
Nope. Went to the post office to mail you something.
Then stopped to pick up some strawberries.
Been out shopping a little, sister stopped over and dropped off a quilt that was Mom's and Del from down the street is going to stop by soon to pick up a Glen Carin glass for a gift. No one in town has them but me. I have a dozen new ones in a box.

So loooong day but got this little beauty hung. Don’t try this at home. Note the creative rigging and counter balance. Throw in some serious cantilever and what could possibly go wrong?
Well done. Probably easier to do without a group of less-than-sober contributors providing "guidance" and good ideas

I was running the little loader up on top of the quarry one day feeding a little screening plant. In the quarry was the big loader doing his usual thing with the haul trucks keeping the big rock plant happy with rock to smush. The yard loader was in the yard doing load out for customer trucks. Yard loader calls me on CB and says to shut my operation down and load trucks in the yard, no biggie, off I go to the yard, On the way I pass the quarry and see that the big loader has gathered up a rock twice the size of his bucket and probably 50% heavier than it could lift, but the rock was in the way and he wasn't gonna let it go until it was out of the way. Yard loader that was middle sized had his bucket on the rear bumper of the big loader trying to keep the big loader bucket with rock off the ground as they moved it to an out of the way place . I just kept movin' to the yard .
Big loader lifts rock, rear wheels come off the ground, middle loader puts bucket on bumper and his front wheels come off the ground, and off they went. We sold that rock for a breakwater/jetty at the local nuke plant, had to be loaded with a crane on to a low bed trailer. Rock was so large truck and trailer could not pull on the truck scale in a normal fashion. 17 tons it weighed.
Big, medium, me

Done. $10 on a $6 glass. We stood around chatting about bourbon and collecting it and sipping on some Cedar Ridge Bottled in Bond Rye. A delicious new release.

So dealing with the evap code on the avalanche. Ground side of vent valve is bad. Dunno how im going to find the break.
Can you just make a new ground or does it need to be grounded back to the module/ecm?
Hehe I stir the pot enough?
Thanks. I might have to close that thread too if the BS continues.
I figured I’ve been awfully nice lately and I wanted to get you a Christmas present . Cheers haha

So as many on here know I am a moderator on a gun bunny sight. One of the guys posted this funny and I thought it was hilarious. No idea how to transfer it to here, so I will give you guys the short version. Guy and his wife go Xmas shopping at mall, guy disappears, wife gets pissed and calls him, with the WTF, where are you question. He replies do you remember when we first got together and we saw that beautiful necklace at that little jewelry store, you know when I told you I could not afford it then, but some day…. She sighs as only a content woman can, and with a tremor in her voice says, yes honey I do remember that store. He replies I am at the gun shop right next door to it.
