    Well it's a good thing it's a 3 day weekend holiday type happening as I've 3 days of paper work to catchup on from work!

    then there is the car to get some kind of a tuning setup done on...

    And an uncle decides his snowthrower needs repair from last winter when it lunched a piston... so I need to do a setup and bore the cylinder and of course it's so small my boring head won't fit so there goes like 200 bucks for a new tool that I didn't have ( or really need/want!) and the dang block sits at like 35 degrees so I need to fabricate a mount to hang onto the foolish thing.... aaarrrggghhhh... and of course it's family so we'll just smile and nod repeatedly like we're listening or even care!!! yep.. this is gonna be a fun weekend!

    Update: Kids Mustang: Put a scrap length of wood to my ear and then all over the exhaust then the engine. Coming from inside the engine. Solution, make sure oil is full and turn up radio. Raining light and heavy today so washed the Jeeps engine with a sponge as I got washed, while family slept. Going to work on secretary desk, inside garage. Oh, and of course play with daughter in the rain and puddles.
    The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.

    Why mess around with boring a cylinder when you can just drop a new engine in it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81y9XSQ9Ru0
