    So, going to pick up my Stage 2s from paint today, and the winch switch shoed up yesterday....

    I wasn't expecting those back for a while.. so, now, I need to make a decision...and I will definitely need a spare set of hands to do it, if I am going to.

    Other than that, still working on this massive lawn ornament until
    I can drive it.

    Yeah, I've had it for a LONG time. I couldn't be without it.

    I stream on the bike that has a sound system. Even then, I don't all the time.

    I AVERAGE 4 hours of commuting a day. Sometimes significantly more.
    Personal preference.

    So I did my plugs last week and I found oily coils on the passenger side.

    End plugs and coils. Second coil pic is lousy. All three plugs

    Any thoughts on this? She’s only got 120 k on her and I’m hoping it’s nothing serious.

    :fingerscrossed:

    This is the only oily looking spot that I can find on the engine. Maybe dipstick not seated properly and some comes out while driving?


    I also just change the PCV on it les than a year ago. Truck is running fine and I do notice a difference from the plug change.

    @Pibbles99
    Valve cover gaskets...check the torque on valve covers. If you didn't have any misfires on the old plugs I wouldn't worry about it

    Well, looks like the rain will pass this morning...

    Seems like a good day to see about some... expenditures, and testing different things for best performance.

    Gotta make sure there is nothing going on at the site first.
    Might even get to engage the front axle.. then again, as wet at everything is....

    2.5 hour operation bike is hibernating with dryer sheets. Keeps the rodents at bay. And sno thrower starts with a few pulls.
    Bring on winter

    I think most of you guys know I'm not real structured or mathematical, I'm more of the "let's build the car while we drive it." Despite my handicaps I actually got this all right with 6" of breathing room

    IMG_20221112_152704_097.jpg

    We also planned out outlets and lighting ahead of time for the lift/compressor
