    The flooring guys will take care of it.
    That’s what I use to hear all the time when I was a tile contractor.

    thats what they tried to pull today. "This is just floor prep, whats the problem".

    Well the slab being over 2" off across the whole span is a problem and floor prep can only go 1/2" at the most. So you tell me how you're going to get the rest of the slab ready to get there. Not to mention the slab is 47* and theres not even HVAC in the building. Call me when the building is sealed and HVAC running.

    I hate some GCs.

    Do a little research on their website. They do a lot to keep the trail open and for OHV access in general and if you feel you can, take the survey.

    Cut the tree near the "knees" and "hips" first. Then, it'll flop correctly :)

    Especially when you see the guys in yellow take off when they see the second bull, but leave the dude behind.

    :rofl:


    It's almost as if they lead the guy to the second bull on purpose. "Hey, dude, come over here and get hit by this other bull!"

    To do it properly you need to cut it up and pack it into a large trunk. The "trash" your neighbors see needs to include the plastic used to cut it up on(suitably enhanced).

    Damn them coil packs are spendy for the 2.7. When you need to get them to get home and can't wait for Amazon too drop them off.

    Anyone have a 2.7 first gen that went through a code of po300, po301,and po304 only to find it was a vacuum leak?
    I replaced coils and plugs. Then checked wiring and now it seems to idle at 2000rpm. But instead of rough it's nice and smooth.
    I used two cans of carb cleaner and started hosing the vacuum lines and never found a thing.
    I'm starting to slightly become a drunk over this.

    Carb cleaner is not “sensor safe”. That’s a good way to destroy a MAF. Sounds like it’s time to bust out the RM and the multimeter.

    I don't use it before the maf. That's bad.
    I have done the vacuum lines all but the one going to break booster. And I think the booster may be going out as well. Going to do compression check in the a.m.
    When I changed plugs my #4 plug was total carbon. Full black. No oil on any of them though. And oil is new with no coolant and coolant with no oil. I'm still working on it though.
    Go in ng to do smoke test on it tomorrow morning also to check head gasket radiator and vacuum. All is possible.
