    I always disconnect the battery. I have welded on a ton of cars and trucks. Never have had any problems. But it only takes one time out of a thousand. I will be discouraging the ECM from now on that's for sure.

    Had a new key cut from my VIN at a local dealer. Key works fabulously! No more ignition hard turns! Cost $9.40.

    Replaced the lense on my gauge cluster and also replaced the blue LEDs behind the gauges for the first time in 5 years.

    Also installed a Fumoto oil drain when I changed my oil

    hahaha Thanks! That's not even the biggest saw or longest bar we have...

    Its actually perfect for Christmas trees. Just have to bend over for a couple seconds. Don't have to get down on the ground or under the tree and get a bunch of branches in the face haha. Its also an extremely nice bar length for limbing trees. I like to walk on top of the tree as I limb it and that length saves my back a lot of stress because I don't need to bend over as much.

    This is a real saw:

    What a coincidence.

    I'm going to be whispering the same thing into Monte's ear tomorrow morning.
