Them monsoons out in the Mojave Desert, just a few minutes before you got soaked there was a very noticeable and pleasant odor on the breeze wet creosote I guess.
Here I thought my "almost summer" weather is odd with a low in the 40s last night. They're expecting snow in parts of Idahohoho and Montana today/tonight
I lost first and reverse in my 904 and took it to Lon and he tore it apart and I got to watch. He showed me what was wrong and why it happened. Kick down linkage was not adjusted right and fried my clutches.It had no first or reverse when first failed. Sat over night and had those again. Got it on trailer. Got it home

Learned a lot and drank some good whiskey with him. Was a great weekend.
You sure can smell them comingThem monsoons out in the Mojave Desert, just a few minutes before you got soaked there was a very noticeable and pleasant odor on the breeze wet creosote I guess.
Yea I remember you had that and would like to ride in your car when you get it fixed and see what the difference is in performance.No kickdown. Full manual valve body. A cheetah valve body
I used to get some really weird looks from my customers at the Chevron when I warned them of the upcoming rain "How can you tell?" "Can't you smell it?"You sure can smell them coming

Absolutely no hesitation on shifts. Easy to drive with floor shifter. No auto shifting no problem.Yea I remember you had that and would like to ride in your car when you get it fixed and see what the difference is in performance.
We usually get hail a few times a year Not often very big though. Last bad one of was maybe quarter size several years ago. Got us a new roof plus gutters and downspouts. No vehicle damage.<~~~~~ has only seen hail 2 or 3 times in his lifetime and that was out in the desert.
I've been seeing that a lot.
Last bad hail here was about 4 years ago and same thing, new roof and gutters and it totaled out my motor home.We usually get hail a few times a year Not often very big though.

Would hate to tear Trans apart if it is just a failed converter. I have a magnet in the pan. That will tell a lot I think...fluid still bright red. Does not smell burned..So how can you tell is issue with Trans. Is the converter? Trans rattling in neutral. Park
