too rich for my blood...lol

 

Morning folks!

 

Congrats @Beretta4x4 for another deer down!

 

First thing I would do is figure out if it's oil getting by the rings, or oil getting sucked in from bad valves/seats, or something else. A compression test helps with this (a bit of oil directly in the cylinder being tested, if compression gets good, it's rings, if compression is still bad, probably valves/seats). If it is rings, no good short term fix and additives will do nothing anyway. If its valves, "probably" nothing to help, but if valve seal is bad due to gunk on the stems, valve faces or seats, additive may just help.

 

Howdy

 

Appreciate this!! Big help man thank you

 

Morning! hows the knee doing after this weekend?

 

It was swollen this morning but heating pad for a little bit it was better.

 

heat and ice it not just one or the other. Seems to help reduce the swelling also.

 

BBQ and beer is what I just heard.....

 

that helps the soul so yep also helpful

 

If you’re looking to get rid of it soon, use a heavier oil on the oil change. Definitely not the best thing for the motor but it will mask the problems to the dealership.

 

Long weekend but finally done .It will look much more natural when all of the landscaping and bushes are around it



and the angle make it look smaller at top lol. That’s just because I’m short, don’t judge

 

Looking great

 

Just finished up the lighting under the loft area. Much brightness!

 

I bet your ready to get in there

 

Looking good. Surprised you didn't have it come down and end in a pond. Looks very nice though.

 

Thank you!

 

Hell no! Our old pond waterfall was massive, maybe 30’. It’s getting demo so we can get access to out back easier. I needed waterfall noise, so made one out front. When it gets closer to spring I can plant. I’m going to put a few Adirondack lounge chairs next to it and watch the sunset.
