As long as you don't need to know the manufacturered date or a gasket set, I'm sure you'll finish them

Gee, thanks Jim...

They are done and turned out awesome if I do say so myself.

Got a bunch of other stuff done around the outside today also. All in all it has been a pretty productive day. And I am now really hot, sweaty, and beat.

I bet that feels good Chris.

My gaskets arrived and they are the right ones JIM! I guess I know what I am doing most of tomorrow...

Good Sunday everyone!

I tore down a little 10 x 12 steel garden shed yesterday. I called it the eye sore. I managed to do it without going inside. This was important as inside was nasty with mouse droppings everywhere. Ick. Just have to haul the steel away and fix the yard.

And I managed to get the mower stuck in the mud too. At least I could get it back out.

Looks like a great day out. Coffee on the deck with da wife today. Doesn't get any better.

Well finally got the boat on the water today. Payten caught a little perch, and I got a little Northern.

Glad you had fun Chris. I still need to watch your video.

And drum roll please............................................ .....................

It's ALIVE

kinda....

The head gasket is leaking antifreeze. I need to take the head off and figure out how to seal that. Any thoughts anybody?

RTV? Yamabond? Gasket adhesive?

It does shift through all the gears though and I saw no oil leaks so once I get the head to seal I should be good to go!

YAY!
