I finally got the right o-ring for the dipstick tube. The previous oil leak was the bung for the dipstick on the side of the oilpan. Now I can park without leaving a puddle! Also, I got around to replacing the alternator that went out on me early in July. Fewwww! If I kept the revs up, the low voltage light would stay off, but still not good. I had hoped it was just the regulator, but nope. $180 later, she's back on the rode.

 

That will be nice to have all the oil leaks fixed. Now you will be eco friendly.

 

I like to keep things in tip top shape too, everything works alot better and certainly helps with the reliability factor.

 

Besides that, when I launch my boat, I won't be leaving a nice rainbow on the lake.

 

Good to hear ya got your truck fixed Dave!

Been out on the boat alot this year?

 

Not enough. I had to re-core the cabin roof this spring, so I didn't get it into the water until July and I've worked almost the last 4 weeks straight. Never enough time on the boat...... How about you? Get out on yours?

 

I got out a bit, but not nearly enough either. Think Im gonna get some more time next year, least thats what im hoping!

 

Next year will nearly be a wash for me. We've got a plant shutdown happening next summer, but they haven't told us when. That will mean LOT of OT for me and no time on the water. On top of that, with our vacation rotation, I'll get last pick next year (I had first shot this year), so I'll do more vacation coverage than take-age. Oh well, win some, lose some.
