Good morning guys
Thought I'd have a couple of hours of logging today, just to do something physical. As always with a 242.

Mornin'
Back on 12 hour shifts
Monday was entertaining a very blessed woman came in wearing a mesh see through top I said I'll be your partner
So we worked together all day
She said all these *b-wordes are jealous
And complaining I said damn right they are.
On the other hand a maintenance supervisor who I swear dresses like a 1970s pimp
Came in last week wearing some kind of translucent pink see through pants a fedora
And rhinestone cowboy boots
I did not see this getup
The fedora is his every day carry though.
Apparently the plant manager confined him to his office for his shift he wasn't allowed to flaunt his outfit to everybody.

Well here’s some gnarly pre-ignition pop:

Yeah....you have an ignition issue of some kind. Switch, or wires between trigger and coil maybe?

Just found some wear spots and slipped some heat shrink over everything. Still popping afterward though.

im talking about the one on the blue trigger under the top cover.

 

[redline4]

WTF?

Exactly.
And when I returned it to the parts department and said give me a different one, which we had in stock, the manager just said to use the old banjo bolt because he didn't want to do any paperwork on it.
Sure, because my time to clean up the old bolt doesn't matter.
He was informed of what I thought about the entire ordeal. Not that it mattered.

When it is not them doing the work, it is real easy to just say "swap it out"...
