Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

just watch the part where you install the hose on the bottom.

i got one a while ago on end-of-season closeout. promptly took it home, and made the propane connection, TIGHT. it cracked the main manifold right down the middle. replacement manifolds were discontinued for that model, so it went in the scrap bin because the crack leaked more propane than it burned...

 

Spent the day working on the GMC - again.

Came in with a creak when turning the wheels, ABS, traction control & check engine lights on.

Greasing the ball joints and tie rod ends fixed the creak -- funny that.
Rusty's friend Dave >> << Rusty


The first two lights were broken/corroded wires for a wheel speed sensor, the check engine was for an oil pressure sensor.

Pulled the stick and found about this much >> lll << oil showing on the stick.
Found evidence of leakage by the filter from it was a mess under there, cleaned it up with brake clean & rags.

Seeing as it was 3+ quarts low already and what in there was blacker than midnight in a mine shaft we gave it a proper oil change - observe and report.

It does have a gauge that was showing normal - confirmed by the reader, the code probably was set when he went around a corner and the pump pulled a bit of air.

 

Good evening guys. Hope you all had a great day.

 

I do tend to get things overly tight. I'm working on correcting that haha

 

Good morning shop crew, have a great and blessed Wednesday.

 

Good morning manly men.

It is 5 degrees warmer than yesterday morning so we have that going for us.
I hope y'all find a positive start for your day as well.

 

Thanks for the pep talk. We are 7* colder than yesterday a whole 14*. On the brighter side the roads are clear of the ice from Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning.
It's going to be a good day today blowing pipe clear of dried mud, we started on 2"x 20' and it's cool seeing it clear in a poof of dust .
Y'all have a great day today.

 

Good morning everyone

We’re at a lowly 7 that’s guessed to double to 14. Wouldn’t be too bad except the sun disappears for over a week…

 

Good morning friends! Hope you all have a blessed Weds.



I guess the only warm one is the one that lives in Fargo.


Amirite @Fargo Taco

 

We are not as cold as some, but to cold if your playing with swimming pools.

 

If that’s livin’ down south then I’d want my money back

Morning shop

My phone says its -3 , feels like -20. Less than ideal but.. at least I work indoors

 

Someone please help me understand the thinking at 5:05 pm and 8:09 pm yesterday.

It was out for delivery, wasn't attempted to be delivered, yet it is somehow on time


@Delta09






It says on vehicle for delivery, somehow......

 

Morning

 

I don't know about the "shipment on time deal" but the whole area, including mine lost a day of sortation. It's an absolute madhouse right now

 

We gonna chalk this one up to lazy driver. The post office brought stuff to the house Monday on 2 different vehicles, it wasn't "that bad" in our area, it was north of us though

 

Don't get too used to it. I'll be back in the freezer on Saturday night.

 

Gotta keep that one in my back pocket. Sortation, Lol Is that like synergy but in a Sorted way.
