Or a Transit. I want to get one with 4 rows of seats. Remove the first 2 rows of seats. Then put a wall up. Road trips will be a breeze.

Finally got the Remy 990 apart.

And scored to a fare the well to boot.

Moisture damage to finish it off.

Box it all up for future reference. [emoji37]

Some may have seen this posted elsewhere but more joy so posting it here.
The joys of rehabbing used saws.
Put seals in a 306a that i got in 2012. Rebuilt carb and then discovered it needed seals so put it on the shelf in 2012 as a get-a-round-tuit-when-i-retire-project.
When taking the clutch off found some nimrod had buggered the thread on the shaft. Not much but down below where i could get to it; almost like on purpose.
Oh joy, i get to take my stress out on something. Used a punch and 3# hammer to get it off. Only took hour and half but it came off. Was gonna run a die down the shaft but then realized its a backward thread. As it turned out the damaged threads were at the very top. It seems the crank is harder than the clutch so there was no further damage to the threads from driving it off.
Knocked the top threads down with my dremel and tried to thread the clutch on to clean up the threads. After dressing the top of the shaft some more i got the clutch to screw on. After running it up and down and wire brushing it i finally got it to where i could “finger tighten” it. All told a 30 minute job took 3 hours but now its done.
Gonna test it out tomorrow. Looking through muffler the p&c look excellent. We’ll see.
So i fueled it up and got it started. Then it died. Taking the AF off i saw where the dildo that worked on this previosly mounted the AF and cover with metal screw. What a schmuck!
Anyway, gonna rebuild the carb. Been sitting for seven years so why not?
Also, cant take chain off cause apparently wrong bar or wrong chain. Well, I’ll fix that. Elongated the mounting slot and shortened the butt end. There, fixed
As said before, we’ll see.
Just discovered no gasket between reed valve case and mount. Some kinda blue goo. No wonder fuel was leaking. Oy vay!
Rebuilt carb and fired it up today. Runs like a raped ape.

I've got a real nimrod here That's always trying to trade me this or that for this or that. This guy "rebuilds" small equipment and sells it on marketplace here locally. The problem is, he'll get something, a saw for instance, and immediately tears it down to its atoms. Whether it needs it or not. He's been doing this for a couple of years and still didn't know what he's doing. I traded him a couple of junk Lawn boys for 5 saws. I wasn't expecting anything more than spare parts for others that I have so I wasn't hurt. But I was pleasantly surprised there was 1 I could actually do something with. But not without cussing his ineptness with small engines. Some folks you just have to tread lightly when you're dealing with them.

I love mini vans. Carry 8 people, good gas mileage, good used ones can be bought at a reasonable price, auto sliding doors, cheaper insurance; and a Toyota or Honda are very dependable. I have had a Ford, Dodge, Oldsmobile, and Toyota.

I like big SUVs too, just never owned one. They are nice though. The only advantage imo is you can pull a light load.

I think Jason's got the right idea with that Mercedes thingy.

Morning midlanders!

We are on our fifth Mopar van since the first Plymouth Voyager in ‘83.

I dream of someday owning a christian’s four door sedan instead of a flying barn.

Win, win for Jack Horners and the geezer.

Horners make a few bux from junk in the attic, plus sells new parts to the geezer to fix it. Geezer has many hours of entertainment playing with trash.

Three 028, one a Super. One MS251 (?) that runs and an 011avt for the coil and Oiler parts.
