Hump day!!
I do not if it was a power surge or just something crazy but the fridge seems to be working normally again.
Florida does not require a motorcycle endorsement on a 49 cc scooter.
The water pump is finally in, now connecting all the stuff back up that I had to remove to get it out. Once I get that done I can finish the stuff for the transmission I put in it. I need to install new software, run pressure test and run calibrations. I hope to be completely done with the truck by the end of the day.

I got it running and I adjusted the trans pressures. Now it's calibrating and as long it passes I will be good to wrap it up first thing in the morning. It's been a long day.

It passed all the calibrations! A few little things to do and it can go to its owner tomorrow. They have another truck with a drive line issue waiting to get pushed in as soon as I get this one wrapped up.

It's FRIDAY !!!
The owner of the truck I just repaired decided it needed a service before they come get it. Of course they decided that after I had it parked out on the pick up line and I had to walk back out and get it. So I will finish that up this morning and then get the driveshaft truck in. Not only did the driveshaft break but it wrapped up a bunch of oil lines and stuff around it while it was flopping around, I can see this is going to be a ton of fun.

Talked to my son last night. The screw his sub s did with the skidsteers only cost him 13.5 k . The laid a rental on it side (rental insurance paid) . In geting that one up right the borrowed another one and turned it over. Trashed the motor. His insurance did not pay because the subs did not have insurance. Thst was his make thtu the winter money.

I finished the service on the truck and we pushed in the driveshaft truck. The repair parts are 4800 dollars and that's not including my labor. Some stuff was special order and won't be in until at least Wednesday.
