I have no Idea whats up today might have to drive Marilyn around if the roads do not clear up to the docs, she is not comfortable with the truck yet. I hate the firechicken by the way......
 
Good Monday Morning All !!!
I have an oil change coming at 9am....10:30am....and 12pm..... Will work on the GTS after that....
 
Good Monday morning to you Mitch, sounds like you have laid out a full day for yourself :steering:
May all your drain plugs and filters move smooth today sir :thumbsup:
 
Had my Vietnamese buddy and his Wife here for Dinner Sat Eve.. Getting close now...will be leaving in 4 weeks...
 
Just curious where do you get rid of the old oil at Mitch? I have a guy that burns it here so I am good. The parts stores around here just take one jug at a time.
 
I have a friend (where Victoria is at ) that has a 400 gal tank he saves his in and I save mine in gal jugs and take it to him about two times a year..
 
Seems like every other month I empty the oil drain (15 gallons) The guy I give it to uses it for heat in his shop but might be closing down soon so looking for options.

I used to have a recycling Co come and pick it up/pump it out of my 55gal drums.. They were paying 15 cents a gal. Then they would pick it up for free...and finally they wanted to start to charge a $20 fee...So... I have a buddy that runs a waste oil heater in his shop...And now he comes and pumps it for Free....:lol:
 
Ah the days they used to buy it. I remember a gas station I worked at had a 1k in ground tank and it was like a payday when they pumped it out the owner split it with all the guys in the shop. Hey 20 then was a lot.
 
Ray...If you didn't hear... Summit would not Warrantee the Pertronix unit... It was 60 days past the date. So I called Pertronix direct and they will repair or replace it for me...
 
Good to hear they back their products also, you tell them how it sat unused?

I always took mine to Autozone. They will take 5gal at a time. I needed to get rid of 20+ gal for work recently. Found a place in Jacobus through CL that burns it.

Yeah.. that fact didn't matter to them at Summit, at all... Pissed me... off.... Then when I asked for a copy of the purchase, she said, she cant print one that old, but she could send a copy of my purchase history, which Pertronix will accept... The Friggin history was 5 pages long , going back to 2011... I was Skeered to put a calculator to it... But I knew it was a LOT of Money... Guess Summit don't want this customer any longer....
 
I am kind of surprised with Summit doing that thought that was just a Jeggs thing!
 
Well, the driveway was almost clear of ice. Just as I was thinking it was all gone, I found a slick spot. :wtf:Luckily I was expecting it and did not land on my azz. Once in the car, it was smooth sailing. Even saw a guy on a skateboard going the other way. :realcrazy:
 
There are a lot of them around here you always see them in the farm fields having a good time. Never been on one though. Buddy did have a VW bug growing up and we put chains on and welded plates on a spare set of front rims, that thing was fun for sure. The cops did not know how to deal with it, Pretty funny looking back.
 
oh heeey - I just remembered I have chicken and waffles left over - things is looking up - I just might salvage a decent Monday outta this :thumbsup:
