Still burning wood here too but not every day. It depends on the temp here.
Anything above 30-32 and it gets way too hot in the house. When it gets like this usually one load is all it takes to warm the house for the day.
I see you have the same kind of backyard as me.
A swamp until June sometime. Possibly July depending on how wet it stays.
Makes it hard to get in/out with vehicles to resupply wood.
Got some work to do on the truck now though.
Hit a big puddle on the highway and it's been running rough since. The dizzy is dry, all wires appear dry, intact and connections still seem good.
Cap and rotor looked ok so I guess the next thing is check the plugs.

Hey that's a heatwave compared to the temps we were getting a couple weeks ago. The wind is biting though.

I like the bench. Of course the cold came back. I need to tear into the truck.
Silly 1.80 gasket goes bad and ends up costing another 30 in gaskets to replace that one.

I like the Ford dealer. My mom was taking her Escape to Conrads for years then they started telling her all the stuff that was wrong so she started going to the Ford dealer for her oil changes.Will after 3 yrs. Ford had a list of things wrong. Went through it and everything they said was going, Rubber brake lines all 4 had cracks, serpintine belt,front brakes. There price to do repair was very high but there list of issues was correct.So busy dar Friday fixing it all

Hey y'all, thought I'd try to participate in this thread. Gotta love this weather bouncing back and forth with these series of cold fronts coming through. We got freezing rain tonight Luckily got my dad's work van up and running for him today, had to clean the egr ports in the intake and change two injectors for him.

First time posting in the Ohio Chapter, hello everyone, my name is Logan.

Glad to hear your surgery went well, bigwin.

Lately I've been unleashing hell at the farm, chilly but the mud is thawed out - lol.
Meanwhile at the house, been spending an exceptionally large amount of time planning what I'm going to be doing to the trucks this year.
