    Morning folks. :pccoffee:
    :dancingbacon::dancingbacon::dancingbacon::dancingbacon:

    My wife has been pulling that trick for 20 years or so. Keeps calling anyone older than her "elderly". Sooner or later she's going to run out of targets. :rolleyes:
    Sounds like much fun was had - NOT! Glad you survived it.

    Once upon a time I worked in the garage of a dairy operation. This was long enough ago that they still had home delivery trucks. I'd get calls at 2:30am to head to the shop, grab a set of chains, hop in the F350, and head to wherever the latest driver had gotten stuck. Then I'd lay on my back in the snow, mud, and muck, underneath the truck, with the same mud/muck/snow dripping down from above, and wrestle those chains on. If I could I'd use the pickup to pull them out onto level ground but that wasn't always possible. As often as not I fitted chains onto a truck in a ditch. Let's just say I got really, really good at fitting chains!
    Chonda?!? :facepalm::bananadead:

    Good morning everybody. It's Monday and I don't have to do anything, I don't have to be anywhere, and I shut my phone off.

    I think I'm getting this retirement thing figured out. For today, anyway. :D

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY Charlie !!

    Glad to hear you're on the road to recovery .... albeit slowly. Just don't rush it.

    Got your message on the Kohler engine .... it's a COURAGE SV610. I've been out of town the past week, but yesterday I downloaded the service manual. Looks like it will provide the answers to my questions. Many thanks for the offer.

    First off. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!:D

    On the kart thanks. I know about the crap made in china. I traded my RC for the kart. China for China.
    I fired it up in spring and seemed okay but was idling bad. If it's not running good soon I won't sweat it. I'm definitely not firing it up in the evening. I finally have the axis coming in to feeder:infantry:
