Got this ole 6-71 Detroit running today. Had to run the exhaust valves, and set the injector heights but she purred right along afterward. Been sitting 5+ years.

Got the cart working had to redo the casters just needed to beef up the bolts . You can see why I used 10 inch pneumatic casters not the greatest surface to work with but it’s a 150+ year old barn

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I polished the hubcaps on my Packard. They weren't too bad for 71 years old. The one on the car is before and the other is after. And then I hit the paint with some Linseed oil just for giggles. I was shocked. THE CAR IS BLACK! :eek: I would have never guessed. I would have done more but I have to scrub some surface rust with CLR first. I think that the old girl is going to clean up nicely. I still have a lot of polishing to do and lose the dried up masking tape on the trim. But so far so good. The bumpers are next. Make her pretty again. :)

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Yesterday I decided to replace a broken firebrick in our wood stove. Took time to let it cool first, then cleaned out the ashes. Might as well clean the cap & brush the flue next. The broken brick was against the back of the stove, and held in place by the bricks on the floor.... which are held in place by the bricks on the side.... one of which was broken. It's all good now and we had a nice warm fire last night. Just took a bit longer than I had anticipated.

Welded up some thrust washers to the legs of the steel lawn chairs. Got tired of one or two legs sinking Into the lawn.

Thanks for the good words. Maybe I'll take on a chaise lounge version sometime for fun :) These chairs work pretty good in the snow - I'd drag them (and other supplies) to the pond in a sled and use for lacing up skates.

Replaced the clock spring on the 03 Tacoma . This what happens when someone does work that has no clue how it works. Had the rack replaced by someone in Buffalo when my step son had the truck 3 months later I get the truck back with the air bag light on no horn or cruise . Knew instantly that the so called mechanic spun the wheel to line it up with input shaft on the rack . So now the spring had tension and eventually broke making lock to lock turns . Stepson said it had just happened so the shop was like 3 months not our problem . So a couple of hours and 100 bucks it's all working again

Replaced the oil pressure sending unit on my Jeep.
I had an oil leak that was driving me crazy trying to find it. Finally the oil pressure starting getting lower but it was not low on oil, and I discovered that there was oil dripping out of the end of the sensor where the wire attaches, and then dripping down on the a/t cooler lines! Apparently it got bad enough that the sensor was leaking enough pressure that it read low. $36 at O'Reilly's and about 30 minutes fiddling with it. |
