G'mornin - sunny here, humidity rising right along with the temp.
Sorry to hear of your troubles, Matt, hope things look better for you today. Hoping for a slow day at the office today, I do have some stuff for the local popo to work on but other than that, I think I might can take a breath for once. Have a good day y'all |

Took me about 3 hours to pull off the superram today. I confirmed my diagnosis. Collapsed lifter. Looks like light scoring on the roller end as well which means the cam is also F'd. Great. Still need to pull the remaining lifters.
Joel - not sure what happened first. Chicken or the egg? I'm guessing the lifter collapsed and when the valve closed it pushed the rocker arm back and snapped the stud since it had no resistance on the top side. That's an uneducated guess. Not sure if the lifter failed or got a loose metal particle in it. I'll have to pull it apart and inspect it. John, congrats on the writing. Keep up the good work. Hope everyone had a great day. |

Hey guys....I had a hard time getting going this morning. But had a phone call asking me if I could look at a computer that was acting up, so I met the guy in the shop and never came back in the house all day. From the computer, I had another call needing some plexiglas cut, so I had them come over to do that and before they left another guy stopped by for me to cut some things for him. So, as it turns out, I didn't get to #2s house before 11:30 to finish up the floor and start the trimming. 4:45 before I finished up all the trim and caulking ... well I ran short on a couple pieces that I will have to pick up and install later. Also had to make a couple calls on my little ole ladies, as the local 'cable' company was having problems with the "stream" app...nothing I couls do, but verify for the (5) ladies that it was a problem with the "company". I'm tired again tonight and headed to bed
Oh, my post from yesterday, got lost somehow and didn't get posted, so I tried again tonight...success! Nighty night! |

We'll see … word cound on the last and best of the travel books was about 35,000, with about 210 images spread over 96 pages. |
