Thanks men. I’m going to follow the advice of a friend of mine. He carries $2000 in his wallet at all times and tells his teens if they get in a minor fender bender to not exchange information but to call him and he shows up on the scene and takes car of it in cash. He’s done that twice already and with boys, I guess that strategy has paid for itsself in his insurance rates not gong up.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Congrats, so far so good with my 18 year old. My rates are still jacked up from when that guy just stopped in front of me at a green light and got blamed.Put a camera in the car, takes all the guess work out.
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
All tore down. I think I need bearings based on the splotches on the main. Looks like still see the grinder marks on the crank journals. Cylinders look new just about. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Probably will. It’s going to a good shop and they are getting carte Blanche to do what it needs.
Dave, how do water rights work there in Utah? Here in Colorado that’s illegal unless you hsve existing water rights on your property.
Sam, that bearing isn't even broke in!
Dave, what do you mean by “they’ll be shutting off our water” - because of drought? Not because you didn’t pay your bill right? ;)

I can’t believe how good it all looks for 300k on it.I was focused on the cap side, which is typically the side that gets hammered.Splotching on the upper might be from moisture.

So I’m a warshin’ all me engine parts. Started in the varsol tank(bout 5 hours). That sucked the next day. Kinda went back and forth to the ultrasonic. Then was varsol hung over Tuesday. Today vacation has started. And so I’m cleaning engine parts. Mama didn’t bat an eye, only asked how I was making out. I think I’ve got a redneck wife…well her hubby is for sure. Cleaned parts drying in the entry way. And I brought this home to help. Slowly getting everything cleaned up. House stinks of varsol and I’m already tired of the ultrasonic’s whine.

I have spent the last 4 days doing school work, picking 5 x 5gal buckets each day of tomatoes, running them thru the mill and getting ready for sauce making tomorrow......on top of my 1st term coming to an end with finals and having to do canned peeled tomatoes as well.
