I wanted to post a video of the crankshaft being turned by hand after torqued but file size was to large, so this is with all 6 pistons in.(wish I could trim other video) but not sure how to do it.

You can host your videos there and not worry about file size.

All you gotta do is hook up with me I'll teach you all I know. The biggest thing is being willing to pick up where I leave off anf continue to teach yourself. Because if I based it only on the degree I got from ITT Tech back in the day I would be lost today. When I went to college the Intel 8088 processor was just coming out for general public use. Here I am today self-taught server admin. Who would of thunk right?

8088 Wow that was modern. 

 

Actually I started with Punch cards (1974), and if you were smart you drew a diagonal line across your program so if you dropped the cards you could get them in order more quickly.  We used to right programs and turn them in and they would run them on the School systems computer.  In 1975 /1976 I used to Burst and Decollate started at 5:00 in the morning ( that was cut the roll feed paper off the checks and separate the carbon paper out of the reports from the dot matrix printer.)

 

1984 I think, I started with a Texas Instruments Professional Color Monitor and a color portable, had a color 6 " screen (took out a loan from Boeing credit union.) .  My mom worked at the cafeteria at Microsoft and would talk the employees into buying me my software.  2 ea. 5 1/4 floppies no hard drive and 256 K of ram, and I paid extra for all that RAM!!!  Lotus 123 was so handy and Word Prefect had a Spell checker, I was in heaven!

 

I watch Big Bang theory and feel old because I used to play the games they talk about, Zork.   

 

Later in life I set up video conference with my parents over 56K dial up so that they could help the kids with their homework and be involved in their lives.
