We’re supposed to get 3-8” snow Sunday night. I still haven’t heard a Robin yet this Spring but we still have a LOT of winter left in the Rockies. Jason, you get a lot of mosquitoes with the pond in your backyard?
No, actually we don’t. Maybe the water stays too cold for them since it’s spring fed.
I hope we’ve seen the last of the snow for this year. Sometimes a good storm will pop up in March but for the most part we should be done now.

Sorry but this line made me chuckle a bit.
Never saw an answer to your question though. Did you get it figured out?
First 6.4 Hemi casualty with the MDS lifters.
Truck:
2017 Ram 2500 2x4 cclb 6.4 68rfe 117k
Last pic left lifter good right lifter collapsed. Unfortunately our DOT inspections prohibit in getting rid of the MDS system, fortunately cought it in time and didn't ruin the cam.
You sure make short work of things, it'd take me a year to do all that.

Did you figure it out yet? I'd guess that it's some kind of gasket in a tube.
We arrived at our spot on the beach safely and had a nice drive along the way. The marsh side of the island is backed up to our site and the beach is about 50 yards from the front of the truck.
@ESwift remembers this island from his visit 15 years ago and out of all of the places we have seen, this is one of our favorites.
Now for some hanging out and several cold IPA's.
Nice Sous. I'm jealous. I need to get my truck up and going so I can get the trailer out. I'd be out today if I could, but it is still too cold for my family..... They don't do cold in camping.....

@sjbj Kate woke at sunrise and took the dogs to the beach. I'm chilling in bed and will join her in a bit.
We have started preliminary planning of our trip out west and I may hit you up for a decent spot in/near Boise to park the camper for a few days. We stayed at the KOA in Eagle (I think) a few years ago, but that was not for the spot, it was for the proximity to family we are there to visit.
It would be great if our schedules aligned and we could shake hands as well. Maybe see your new shop or you can come out to the campsite, I'll be in touch.
The chart above is a jpg file, so technically speaking, it is a continuation of the slide show.
I use the Ultra Black for a lot of my oil-fouled gasketing needs. I try to clean the surfaces as much as I can of course but short of hot-tanking it, one can never really be sure of absolute cleanliness.

A rain storm rolled through last night at the beach, but we slept well and woke to the sound of ocean waves crashing on the beach.
I laid in bed most of the morning while Kate took the dogs to the beach. There is almost 4 miles of state park beach in front of us that is never busy. Hence one of the reasons why we like it here do much. It is a small community with no commercialization. The digs are free to run off leash, which is nice too.
The wind is up a bit, but we still had a great day and had dinner at McKonkey's Jungle Shack, which is a local favorite of ours. A 1/2 lbs hand patted burger, fried pickle chips, onion rings and fries are a great choice. Later in the week we will hit up Whaley's for a couple of cold beers, chicken wings and great atmosphere.
I sincerely hope everyone had a great weekend and your upcoming week is a good one.
I use so much of it I just buy the big caulk tubes. I LOVE IT FOR EVERYTHING.
The only real problem with it is that if it's used on thin tin (like 7.3L oil pans or early small block Chevy valve covers), forget about reusing it. It's not coming off without being destroyed.
