Hmmmmm...it idles fine. It sounds ok at the tail pipe when idling. You rev it, it then sounds like the injectors are not getting to pop pressure.

When you get the fuel pressure gauge.... check the pressure at idle and then again when it starts missing. If ya see no drop I'd wager it's time you find a new injection pump...or like you said, let a pump shop make it run.

I would just ask for forgiveness after the fact...  :cool:

I'm glad my kids are beyond the Disney days.

That would be nice, of course we'd have to get the wife past the Disney days too...

Stewie, you brought this on yourself :rolleyes: talking about scorched earth and tunnel rat chickens with all these military guys around. now you're going to have to appeal to Don to fire some of them so you can get back to killin snakes and making awesome chicken coops. Say, feel like making a trip out this way and building one for me on the backside of the house? Dungeness crab and Salmon for your troubles??

Clarification: I would probably eat this. I would also eat it on a dog, no question. But I would not call this chili. and cheese is cool, just not appealing to me in this way.

TRN's style is way more my speed, and yes to chocolate in the gravy.

salad table from salvaged wood. 1 down, 1 to go!


Please explain function of said table

basically to plant lettuce and all. mesh allows for good drainage. its also portable.

that's pretty genius there. Might have to make me one of those.

Negative ghost rider.  5 different chilis. 4 different hot peppers.

Pasilla, ancho, chipotle, pablano, jalapeƱo, habanero, Thai bird chili, casacabel, Serrano,  carribe chili

I think Don was referencing the Cinci skyline chili with the cinnamon question. they eat that crap w/ spaghetti noodles and piles of shredded cheese. it's an abomination to chili. should just be called OH spaghetti sauce.

Nice list of chilies and peppers there too; gravy's lookin' good. I'm a fan of "no-bean" TX style chili.

Right now I'm getting all I need from all of you. Prayer is an amazing thing. 3 weeks ago I was counting the minutes between pain pills. now I'm just dealing with what feels like minor UTI, so I'm ok. I know what this group is capable of so I reserve my requests for help for real dire straits, not just sultans of swing.  :wink:

« on: February 22, 2017, 08:18:31 PM »
Well, I ran into this a few weeks back so I'll chime in. while beating out my ball joints and fried bearing on the driver's side I attempted to swap inner tie rods and found my breather assembly plate had un-threaded itself from the diff housing and exposed the gears to the elements and made a bunch of growling noise since the oil level was down. I thought it was all bearing but made a huge difference when I put it back where it belonged. Just my experience, but sounds like front diff noise, especially since is gone in 2wd.

Always on a swivel in new areas but need to maintain that where I'm comfortable, maybe even more so nowadays. I'm a parking lot Nazi; always back in for easy egress, always take forever finding "the" spot where there's better light, or less skeezy cars, people, etc. Always look to see who's sitting in their cars around me, what they look like etc. Wife and I were at a jewelry store in a strip mall where her friend worked looking at some really overpriced, ugly stuff, (mostly just trying to make her friend feel good). The lot was empty and this old beat up 80's buick w/ 5 dudes in it chose to park directly in front of the store next to our car. I walked out to "put something in the back" to evaluate the deal and they were just "hangin' out, smokin' and waiting on a buddy". I went back inside, told her friend and manager they need to keep an eye on those guys and should call the cops just in case. we left but I felt it needed to be done so I called them and turned out 2 had warrants, both armed robbery. maybe nothing, maybe casing it, or maybe just waiting for us to leave, but I heard the voice and listened and now my wife listens too when I say it's time to go.

Same here Tate, shoot me a PM please

This applies to everyone here, but might need to be moved to classifieds, (Nate?).

the 7/8" rope is $119 on its own, and $199 as a kit with the bag, gloves, d rings and soft shackle. that soft shackle is available on it's own for $39.00 too, and is rated at 35,000lbs.

Thanks for asking Dave. I'm hanging in there. several "pieces" have passed since the onset of this whole thing, which is a good sign of kidney function but I'm still off and on pain meds and experiencing hives that indicate some kidney function issues so it's kinda contradicting. I do have my specialist appointment Monday, so hoping for a diagnosis and direction.

Yeah, sold the house and the condo we'd been stuck with for years. we'd bought a condo in a nicer neighborhood in Mukilteo, (read snooty Microsoft people) when they were still in construction phase put a ton of money down and were upside down within the year after the market took a dump, then we bought the house out in the country in Stanwood and have been there for 10 years. Market finally comes back around and my rental property that I couldn't give away sold in 24hrs of listing it, and we got our money back. the house took 45 days but we closed on the new place and the sale of the old one the same night.

Love to see what you negotiate for a px on the rope. I have a few snatch straps but some of them (true "snatch straps" not tow straps which don't stretch) don't really stretch if what your pulling out is really light. Maybe the kinetic rope works the same way I don't know?

Just for you to negotiate off of....  :wink:

Tate, that is a really big Lake you are on. Can you watch the shipping lanes from the house?

That's the east side of Oak Harbor directly across the bay. We're on Utsalady bay, north end of Camano island. to the northwest we can see the San Juan islands, but not to Saratoga passage and the shipping lanes due to Whidbey island blocking that line of sight. We do have a deep water buoy and plans to sell the trailer and replace it with a boat of some sort in the near future.

Tater, .25 acre???

Man you had better like your neighbors. :huh:

If one snores you'll hear it! :shocked:

If the other has gas and is upwind.... :undecided:

Love ya, man! Good for you, nice house, but I don't imagine you will stay there for a lifetime


North south and east of me are all snowbird homes. very quiet right now and very active during the summer months. This house will stay in our family for as long as I foresee, but you are right, probably not full time living forever. Neighbors are very tight nit, conservatives though, which is nice. had two of the full timers stop by and introduce themselves and even bring baked goods to welcome us to the neighborhood. Plans are to build equity towards other propertie(s) and keep this as vacation/rental income etc down the road. We stole this place and appraised value came in WELL above final purchase price.

Tate, very nice view.

Specs on the garage are missing, it does have a garage right? :huh:

Buddy lives about 5 miles out has a 2500 sq/ft shop that he's letting me reside in. current garage on the property is a large, two car pull through w/ boat launch, but we're converting that to two bedrooms and an office space. Pics and updates in a new thread in construction to come.

Like the back 'yard'!

Went shooting the 19 and 21 today. Couple hundred through each.
Now in a hotel room 200 miles from home.
My poor brown dog may have blown out her other knee.

Since Thursday night we've had half an inch of rain in conjunction with about six inches of snow.
Needless to say it was an entertaining drive.

Put the Bubba rope to use again pulling a half ton out of he ditch.
He was setting on/in three feet of snow.
Another fella had tried with another half ton and couldn't do anything more than spin.
Did I mention the freezing rain, could hardly stand on the road.
Two good tugs and he was on his way.

But found out in my goodies I need a 20 k strap a few feet long.
I'm not a fan of shocking chain that hard.
My 1" shackle doesn't work in the new Chevy tow hooks. And they are a loop now not a hook!

You need one of these guys: https://www.ringpinion.com/b2c/ProductDetails.aspx?ProdID=13994

The kinetic recovery rope is made in tey-has, as in USA. 28,300lb capacity. I've got good guy pricing for everyone here and your exchange rate isn't AS terrible as it's been lately :rolleyes:

if you think about it, THIS right here is a form of "church" for many of us. we talk, share lessons, edify and support one another, contribute to worthy causes, and hopefully all take away something of worth to share with our friends and family and improve our lives and the lives of those around us, all while fellowshipping.

I bought a house. Spent all weekend from Friday through Sunday packing, cleaning, painting, unpacking, pretending to sleep, eating bad takeout, wearing out my back and patience, downsized from 2100sq/ft and 1.2 acres to 930sq/ft and .25 acres, but I think my back yard makes up for it a bit.

More pics to come as we get settled in and do a little remodeling.

That student needs to answer this question; "if we as Americans are open to freedom of religion, and 'letting people do what they want to do' should we not then have a prayer room for every faith?" Ask yourself why you are catering to a single religion that is the only one demanding it of you. I would bet he couldn't answer it.

How many other Norwegian, Lutherans, Swedes out there have made or have had nothing other than good old egg coffee? Mom's side were all norske Lutherans and I don't remember ever having any other choice until espresso stands became a thing. although hunting and fishing w/ both sides grandpas included percolator or cowboy coffee with the cold water trick. I think the smoke from the fire changes it too.
