Managed to get at least the front lawn mowed. Then the cam went on a fresh engine rebuild with only about three hours on the clock. Mower was supposed to go back home Thursday. Will that didn't happen.
Still fighting s pto clutch issue with our own mower.
A Ford Ranger was dropped off this...
Still working on mowers. One went home today. Lawn is getting mowed little at a time. Need to get mine and the neighbors mowed this week.
Got about 5-1/2 acres to go.
Worked on placing the last of the shed supports yesterday. Back is now shot again. But still have more dirt to move.
Still no...
Last week was nothing but wet and cool. With sunshine the last two days the mud has just about disappeared. No related truck work has been done. But there is a transmission the needs to be put back into a Ram sitting in the way.
I save the one from the 93 but it has problems. Something heats up in the summertime and shuts it down. If only a winter driver it had no problem. Use to carry a can of cold air and a fan for fast cool downs.
Don't seem to get here as often as I should. Been working on mowers and buildings instead of trucks. Weather bounces all over the place. You name it three seasons in one week. Just crazy stuff, people getting blown and washed away all around us. Not sure what kind of year weather wise to look...
Started mowing about three weeks ago. I see brief periods of dry ground. Not dry enough to be messing in the garden though. There are still plenty of spots not safe to drive on.
My 1980 Chrysler body book calls for
rope type sealer (no makeup given)
vinyl acrylic sealant
plastic solider
Strange they don't specify were to use them.
I think the lead solider is frond up by the EPA. Guess they think lead poisoning is a real thing. I haven't every tried it.
Slave cylinders are best bleed sometimes by reverse pressure bleeding. I have even had some luck vacuum bleeding for the slave.
Master and slave are hydraulic, fluids don't make creaking noises.
Not sure about this newer stuff, but the older forks could be removed for servicing without removing the transmission. If it is a high-pitched squeak, it could be the clutch release bearing.
You can keep that up there. Wishing I could also send some northern cold air back home. But it has nothing to due with lake affect.
We get what is called Canadian plains air or artic air. That is when the trough dips this far south. It's supposed to be 38° per the thermometer. But that north...
