    Morning all
    Going to be a lousy day.
    I can feel it in my bones
    Not suppose to feel this way just before some time off from work
    This vehicle situation just took my legs out from under me.
    This is why I try to do the best I can so someone doesn't feel like I feel now.
    So chalk it up to a learning experience and this is why I don't trust others touching my
    Vehicles. But, I don't have the equipment to run electronic tests. So I'm handcuffed.
    Never again........

    Mike, what kind of electronic tests do you need? I have an ODBII interface and cable that I haven't used in years. I went wireless, so the old stuff isn't used. You would need a laptop, but I have a hacked copy of PCMSCAN that reads all the sensors. I can try to round up the parts and send it to you to try out. Not doing me any good.
    Here is the webpage of what I was doing with it http://george-novak.com/silvertank/obd-ii-scanner/

    Thank you sir. Very much appreciated. I'm going to call them and let them know what's up. I'll wait until I get back from my trip and then move forward. I don't want to touch it as they will say I did something.
    Thank you for the offer.
    It's going by by anyway so it will be a mute point to try and get into it.

    No problem, just drop me a line if you ever want to try ECU tuning. I got interested for a while, but then picked up leatherworking and watchmaking instead. Now that stuff is buried under a half dozen other old hobbies. I have the attention span of a circus monkey ;)

    How much is it worth to put this behind you? At some point you scrap it and use the monee towards something reliable...or bail

    20/20 both eyes. My close up reading has worsened, but that was expected. I'm still trying to get used to reading glasses.

    Trying my best to get psyched up for todays board meeting. Last one with this board. They nominate 8 candidates and open up the voting shortly for 4 new board members (out of 12 seated) . Then the posturing and politicking starts to pick the new board president. One guy, who's abundantly qualified wants the job. The "in crowd" with regards to old politics here doesn't want him, but they have no suitable candidate. This aughtta get nasty. I'll just sit back and listen. No say in what happens even though I have to live with the aftermath.

    I listed a few old suspension parts on Craigslist yesterday. Last night and so far today has been morons on parade....I have very specific list's of what is for sale, yet these people call and want to know if I have something totally unrelated.....READ people. READ.

    Yes, and the merit badges. We turn in the paperwork today and wait for the final board of review.

    We had a very nice going home ceremony with military rites for my FIL today. He was interred into a veterans cemetery that has to be one of the best around here. It is run by a retired marine that runs a tight ship. The toughest part was his mother. She turned 95 today and had to bury her son on her birthday. We just couldn't have everything ready to have it yesterday. He still helped take care of his mother and she is so distraught. The flag was presented to her.
