    well past due.....

    but the note the #3 plug

    I've got a valve cover gasket swap in my future. Truck has never thrown a code or burned a drop, but the pack, and then the plug after it, came out with oil. From the tube of course, not the head.

    Reminds me of an issue I had in my basement a couple months ago. They didn't even twist the wires together and lost a neutral o_O

    Easy fix for me. Twisted the fuck outta those wires!

    o_O

    I strip extra wire and twist them together with my linesman pliers. The nut basically just covers the connection.

    I do get confused when I do electrical here at the house. Working in industrial I get confused when I don't see brown, orange, and yellow wires. Oh, I guess blue as well for 24V DC circuits :laugh:

    Heading back out to Cumberland Foreside to come up with a plan to move these stairs (up to that beach house) that were shifted during those storms a while back. They're supposed to run straight down. Need to use my non Engineer expertise to figure out how to add some bracing/supports to keep them in place. Definitely replacing that 1x1 hand rail with a 2 piece 2x4 system. Maybe run some long 2x material down the outer edge of all the posts so they're all connected. Love these kind of jobs.

    I'm definitely envisioning a come-along and various tow straps. There's a big tree on the shore just to the right...perfect anchor point.

    Shouldn't be too bad, I had the septic pumped back in October... :rofl:



    Stuff like that doesn't even phase me. They clog the main lines at work all the time and ya gotta walk through a pool of waste. Get desensitized to it after a while :laugh:
