Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Torque wrench on spark plugs, we need answers so cast your vote now

Good day outside. Got my ProMac 10/10s parts in thursday from Sawzilla, new fuel tank gasket, viton this time, new fuel hose, new air filter and the old beast is back in business. Good prices, fast shipping, ordered Monday.

Then went out garage saleing, $3 for a coleman lantern with the carrying case, both in VG condition plus 2 extra mantles, 2 small compressors for a buck and 2 bucks, to toss in each vehicle along with plugs kits. A motion sensor light system for $3, have to set one up for the garden, the deer are in for a surprise, if not from the light, from the pellet that's going to hit them in the arse. a decent old sprayer, couple of bucks, a full unopened24 pack [one oz each] of marine stabil, $5, 2 very HD outdoor extension cords, $4 whole bucks. Then snagged a [usa made, not the later crappy china ones] unused Schrade finger sharp scrimshaw in the box for cheap, they are pretty good skinning knives. Decent haul while running around in the convertible and frying the old noggin.

Really should have taken off yesterday from work, there were 2 lakes that had competing entire lake garage sales.

 

Get an oscillating sprinkler, put under vehicle and let it run for an hour or two while you do something else, just wander over occasionally and move it to another location.

 

I wondered what was up?

I thought not another one just vanished .

 

I always wait till it rains and go for a drive.

 

Nope, you still got to put up with me lol

 

Went to a few more garage sales and snagged this for 12$ been considering painting the wifes car. Anyone know if this is a decent one? Looks in good condition

 

Goodnight everyone, sleep well

 

As long as the working parts are good and clean and nobody has mangled the points on the adjusters it should work pretty good I would guess, can't go too far wrong for $12.

Try spraying some mineral spirits on a piece of cardboard and see how the pattern looks.

 

From what I can tell, it appears to be unused. Thanks for the tip! I helped my uncle paint a car when I was in high school, a long time ago, so my knowledge is a little rusty haha

 

The packings on the adjusters and the trigger are lubed with a light oil, we used Binks Gunners Mate, probably NAPA has something similar.

Keep in mind you will need a pretty healthy compressor to keep up with that gun if you are painting the whole car. The gun requires around 10-15 cfm, a good 2 stage compressor makes 3-4 cfm per horsepower.

 

Much better this then wondering what might have happened.

I still am some what concerned about Shane that he just vanished .

From the threads he started and carried without a word.

 

Good morning everyone

I hope you have a pleasant Sunday.

 

Rain? What's that? Way it's been going the 4th Gen Taco will be on it's way out before we get a good soaking. I can hear my garden plants from the house gasping ''water, water, my tomatoes for some water.''

 

Good morning everyone, have a great and blessed Sunday. ​

 

Off to work soon because I'm greedy and stupid. Uncle Sam already sent me a thank you letter for supporting those less fortunate who can't get up in the morning to work.

I truly do hate to look at pre tax earnings and then the take home pay. I have a bruised forehead from smacking it and going "DOH!" And my raise doesn't kick in until Monday............ [That would have been another $4.50 an hour today.

Oh well, I'd expect my home and all it's engines, vehicles, outside ''toys,'' and so on already are scheming to get their greasy fingers on that extra money...........[at least it sometimes seems that way]

 

I hope your day is a good one. Don’t let the lazy people and sticky fingers Uncle Sam get to you. They can’t help it.

 

My youngest is in the high school band and plays at the graduation ceremonies. I didn't really feel like sitting through a third graduation so I thought I'd pack up my bike and cruise around for the two and a half hours.

The high of 93 today tells me that's probably not the greatest of ideas.

Since the ceremony is on campus, I might just kick into my office and work on the new laptop some more.

 

Good morning guys. Let’s have a nice laid back Sunday, after cleaning house of course.

Oh, to keep our mower repair theme going, as I was putting the mower up yesterday I flipped the seat up to make sure there wasn’t any grass or leaves collecting around the battery, when I did the padded part of the seat came off . Just fell right off . Guess I’ll be adding that to my repair list

 

Aa

Nice! Congrats when it kicks in
