Today's adventure in wonderland: My loader needs fuel filters. Any time I'd really try to get at the chip pile the loader would bog down or stall then not want to re-start. And I saw some bolts slide into the nail bin so that means more cutters tomorrow.

I did find a used cutter sitting on the ground that the grinder must've spit out. It was on the wrong side of the machine for someone to have dropped.

good evening everybody!

i got a full day in on the hill climber #2, if ray (and i) can continue working on it at a good pace it will be done in time and should be pretty damn sweet looking. and we know the drivetrain going into it goes mach 3.

Evening guys!

Got a call around 3:30ish about my truck. ETA tomorrow at 11am, the ticking noise was the purge canister in the EVAP system (hence it being intermittent) and they reflashed the PCM on the transmission deal. They're waiting on the part, which should be in tomorrow AM. No warranty issues, I just need a ride down there.

Missing GTG's are not my choice.

i cannot speak for ray, but i believe the plan is to have both up there. the ranger is getting a better shifter, and better tachometer.

clear your schedules ladies! may 29th!
