Got off about 4:30, got back to the room and figured I would take a nap then get some dinner. Just kicked my feet up for the nap and get a call from CFA that the sewer line is stopped up. Get a plumber there and we open the manhole and are greeted with this.

10+ year old 21hp briggs and stratton in the craftsman finally took a dump last weekend. Just ordered a 19hp B&S motor, do I need to break this motor in first and do I need any special oil? B&S website says run 30 weight, take it easy for 5 hrs, then change oil with more 30 weight and run it normally. Any input?

I've got to say thank you to @IBMobile and Jennifer for the wonderful dinner they brought us. They stopped in this evening and brought dinner, friendship, and great conversation. Again thank you both for the wonderful home-cooked meal. I would like to publicly announce that we have a new BoD member to the list. I know that one of our BoD is stepping down and @IBMobile will be replacing him. He's a welcome asset to the Mopar1973Man family being he's a knowable person and talented mechanic.

i'd be crying if i saw this in person. more money than brains.

Last Saturday night my wife and I started a five week camping trip in our fifth wheel trailer. Tuesday morning we pulled in to Capital Reef National Park, dropped the trailer and did some sight seeing. The road in the park is only about 10 miles and took us 8 hours to see the sights. The next morning we set of for Moab, Utah to see both Arches and Canyonland National Parks. We get to the camp grounds and as I'm unhooking the trailer the check engine light comes on. What the heck! With code reader in hand I find P0336 crankshaft position sensor signal. OK, I had replaced it about 50,000 miles ago and the truck just turned 102,000 miles so my be the life e…

So I got a buddy who’s looking into a Dodge and potentially a 3rd gen. He’s looking to get somethin to tow his boat, which is 15k. I suggested he get a dually since he’ll be bumper pulling that much weight the extra stability and load bearing would help. Mainly looking for the commonly known issues on the 3rd gens if that’s the route he ends up going. He’s also considering a 2nd gen but I should have that covered pretty well. Anything in particular I should check or look at with him looking to tow that much?

I ran across a new article on Daily Mail with MoparMom where they explain how easy it is to buy fob blanks and the programming tools to produce your own key fobs. The example they show is stealing a Ford vehicle in under 2 minutes without breaking anything on the vehicle. Basically, the device will tell the vehicle to forget the previous key fob and use the new key fob provided for entry. A person can do the in a normal parking lot in daylight because you just pressing a few buttons on a device and the door is unlocked and you can start the vehicle without any tools or breaking anything. No one is any wiser about the theft. This is becoming a problem where Amazon and eBay…

Our Mail Lady (Betty Holderness) has fallen ill and wound up in the hospital last Saturday. At first we are all kind of stunned at what that she wound up in the hospital. Come to find out she is dying from cancer. She has been providing US mail here in the Salmon River Canyon for over 25 years. Just really sad to find out that she is going to lose her life to cancer. Please say a few prayers for this kind lady and may her soul pass on to heaven peacefully.

Just checking any one else in the state of ohio?

My diesel smell removable process...Wife says diesel smell not getting removed from clothes when washing with bottle of coke. Light smell just add bottle coke to washer. Heavy diesel smell pour coke on clothes and let soak then wash. I'm not getting results like I used to. My nose is getting better or coke is getting cheaper. What do you use on OPEC perfume?

I bought a name brand Mr. Coffee - Coffe maker. I bought the simple version of just the toggle switch still without all the clock and stuff to go wrong. Would you believe after barely 6 months the simple toggle switch failed? Yeap. It quit working. I wanted coffee so I broke out the screwdrivers to start pulling it apart. I'm greeted on the bottom of the coffee maker with a warning that there is no serviceable parts and you should not open the coffee maker which might put you at risk of a fire. Screw that... I proceeded... 4 screws are normal Phillips but 2 screws are Allen wrench. Are you kidding me? Ok back to the shop I cheated again instead of Allen wrenches I grabbed…

I dunno....... ya think he might see it as funny?

Stupid question (I know, just consider the source), but I changed my signature and now if I try to use two lines I get the message that there are to many lines being used. Any suggestions?

I saw this and thought of some people on this forum. I'm not condoning the use of such devices, just thought this was funny.
