And some metal on the magnet.


Time to tear into it and find out what's up. If it's not ready for October I'll just run the back up car. Maybe it will become the car - and a yellow POS with a bad motor will become the back up?? LOL

how do you break a shaft rocker arm???

You and me both buddy! I'm tired of it already... and I have a LONG way to go! Nobody realizes how much "stuff" is in a space like this... until you pack it up and then start to unpack and put it back on the walls/shelves.

It's so disruptive!

Normally the last thing to pack is the stereo... and the first thing to set up is the stereo... I even brought the entire shindig over in the pickup for that reason. Sadly though -- since I wasn't here to place the TV etc -- they arbitrarily decided to just coil up the cable behind the new sheetrock. Now I have to make an appointment for the idiots to come find it and bring it thru the wall. That happened yesterday. Then - since the TV box (DirecTV) was NOT activated when it was installed - that was an hour on hold and repeating why I was calling to get it working. UGH. Maybe tomorrow - weeks after the move - I'll finally have music to work by. Of course - in the meantime - I wasn't able to set up that 15' long multi piece wall unit - because the "cable is in the wall there somewhere".

Funny - the wall unit was one of the very first pieces of furniture Gwen and I bought (REAL furniture)... and that dates back to about 1976. I remember that it was about $5K - it's Rosewood... and contemporary and would still look great in a house to this day. That poor SOB has been moved so many times it's ridiculous.

Easy apparently!! LOL


It may be experiencing coil bind??


This is number 2 now.


So first the tip of a titanium valve falls/breaks off.... It gets a full rebuild... next outing it has a cracked intake runner in the head... that gets epoxied.... next up is a broken rocker arm... that's an easy fix... then I got to run a full day without issues at Laguna Seca... next outing was this time - and it breaks another rocker arm and who knows what else.


One more fix and the next motor is an LS.

On top of moving the shed -- which is basically a nightmare of work... we continue to work on the dump here so we can get it going mid September.

Are those solar panels on the roofs ridge or some kind of venting?

Nice rendering, that'll work.

I am telling you I could turn that property into a really bitchen Mountain Bike skills course. Plenty of natural features that would make for really good jumps and skinny's to ride on.

You may want to add this into your life.
