NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Which trails is everyone planning to run this weekend?

 

The garage

 

Bread line.

*shakes ammo can* spare change?

 

my surgeon says the difference between mechanics and surgeons is surgeons fix while it’s still running!

 

He hasn't met any real mechanics then. That's why boats have two motors.

 

not sure what that means but we did used to do Oil changes with the engine running. Had auto feed and evac system! Would suck out the oil and add it at the same time! Did a lower bearing Change while running once. Never again. Even with cyl disconnected was terrifying to climb in under the piston.
Edit
Talking Wartsila giant 2 stroke bunker fuel engines that weigh about 120 tons. They have a door in the bottom of the cylinder so you can climb inside
Also very smelly in there.

 

How does that work without evacing some of the new oil? Or is that just part of the process?

 

full change was usually about 120% of total capacity. At 100 hr intervals even 80% would be ok. Plus a 2 stroke on #2 bunker is dirty as shit anyway.

 

The newer camless engines are so much cleaner inside, even with HFO. Scav boxes still get filthy, but that's what cadets are for.

 

Did you check out the November Seattle Area meet thread? Usually the best place to find that.

 

No I haven’t I’ll make sure to!

 

Who on here has the white 4 seater RZR? I cant remember your user name. Has "Imperial" all over it.

 

I know who you're talking about but can't remember his SN. I thought it started with a Z but the forum username auto suggest isn't coming up with anything.

Oh, you need the first 3 letters I guess, I only can remember 1. Lol

 

Lol I did the exact thing. I went back like 100 pages and was like fuck that ill just post

 

Quick question!
How long can I leave my tires at zero pressure (parked in the garage, mind you)without damaging (flat spot) them? Will 24 hrs be alright?

 

Yeah, they may take a mile or 2 to round out again, but no permanent damage IMO.

 

Thanks Bob! I figured it would probably be alright for such a short time. New tires though, and I don't want to screw them up.
And...you are probably wondering why...
Trying to make sure the tent is completely dry and it was the only way I could get enough clearance to open it in the garage.
Eventually, I will finish the setup that will allow me to remove it, place it on the floor to open and dry, and then hoist it up to the ceiling. The hoist is there, just need to make a frame with some casters.

 

That bottom picture is 0psi?

 

Less than 1 psi. According to the ARB deflator.

 

Daaaang, that's a stiff sidewall.







Before Jim gets a chance: that's what she said.
