Turned in to decent day. Rain and drizzle final stopped for now. Got the turbo sat inplace. Still got to tighten it down to the pedestal. Three of the four are little bit of a PITA . The fourth one need to be stretch Armstrong





You can see three of the four nuts

 

The rain and drizzle final stopped. Got back on the turbo for a little bit. Got the EGT probe in. The oil return line in place. The turbo is sitting on the pedestal.

 

Sorry for the double post tablet was acting stupid

 

It was pretty much a wash out all day here. I went shopping with the wife looking for baby furniture and ended up buying me a new to me entertainment center.

I have plenty of stickers so just PM me with your address and which ones you what and how many and I will get them in the mail to you. Remember they were made in Afghanistan SO I can't say how long they will keep their color or hold up to the weather.

 

Got alot of good news. We hired a new service writer, he starts Monday. Great guy, owns a 93 Bronco(so we should get along just fine). Still looking for a new tech, I had to tell the one that replaced my son, he wasn't working out. And the best news today,,, our daughter is having twins.

 

Congrats. Glad you got a service writter. Have you talked to the instructors at the tech school closest to you to see if that have anyone about ready to graduate that good?

Just remember you have to double the GRANDPA budget. I got 5 of um in TX but no twins although the kids tried hard to get close. One just turned 13 , another one turns 13 in Dec. One just turned 9,one turns 7 in Jan and the last one turn 4 in Nov

 

We have a total of 11 ranging in age from 14 down to 1 year. I did talk about the tech school angle with my partner and he is looking into it.

 

Are kids really know how to make us feel old.

Another thing you can consider about the tech school, is ask if you can join their advisory board. That what gives the local shops a little of say in what's going on in the classes and let the instructors no what going on in the "real world". When I was teaching advisory board member got to know about the good ones first

 

Congrats Grandpa Bronco !!
Need to see if we can get the service writer into the group!! Once I retire next year I want to sell or trade my commute car for a Bronco. Have to make a trip to Atlanta today to pick up a piece of baby furniture for the wife. Also have to run by Best Buy and get my cell phone replaced because I ran it over the other day. I had it over 3 years, kept it in the case and not a scratch on it. It still works but the screen glass is shattered.

After working on the wife's computer for about 3 days on and off I finally got it up and running and upgraded to Windows 10. She will be glad I finally have it off the kitchen counter!!

 

Thanks Chief, I'm working on Bill to get him to join. I think he'll do alright. Now need to find a tech.

 

My phone some how got dropped off the so called "protection plan" so I just ordered a new screen off of Amazon. Yesterday was another dreary wet unable to do anything day up here. Getting to get a few things done before I have to go back to work, the weather has not helped out any.

 

It still raining down here.

 

Happy 226th to the Army
