Your timin' belt's done shrunk one size too small
Those spark plug wires are a little too long
And your main prodsponder's nearly gone
Your injector ports are stripped and that ain't all
The torque converter's runnin' low on torque
And that water pump's nearly down a quart
But we caught it all in time so you're in luck



Happy Friday!

Oh well, at least the carburater chain and the muffler belt are still ok!!!! Happy Friday to you Gretsch! Hope you and everyone else has an enjoyable weekend!!!!

Some mechanic he is, didn't even check the blinker fluid.

Here is a link to some replacement parts in case you are having trouble finding them: http://kalecoauto.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=3
If you are pulling the engine apart, be sure to replace the piston return springs. Also, there was no mention of the halogen fluid... Better check that while you're at it.

Yeah, and I had trouble finding "Brick Fluid" for my "E-Brick"

Here are a few more hard-to-find items. These people seem to have just about everything, but I don't see Brick Fluid listed.

Don't forget to change the air in the tires from summer air to winter air before Labor Day.

That seasonal air is awesome.

I hate having to change those muffler bearings.
Just don't like having to crawl under the car.

In all those good parts I saw narry a knibblin' pin. If one of those goes out while you are on the road you are in big trouble.

Don't forget to check the fluid in your alternator, that'll ruin one quicker than anything!

When I flew for Uncle Sam, we used to send new airmen after, "a hundred feet of flight line", or "five gallons of prop wash"...

However, we really did have whiffle-trees and snatch-blocks and let me tell you, there was some real eyebrow raising when trying to explain what they were used for..

later on, when I was assigned to a joint-services special operations group out of Brussels, I was a part of a Tactical Warfare Action Team. We changed the name when a young female captain was assigned to the group....

Is that knibbin pin to the left or to the right of the knubbin? I can never remember. A friend installed a knubbee to hold the knibbin pin in but he was running on winter air in July. Long story short -- it didn't work.

Can you see some green newbie readin' this stuff?
