Customer: "I just need a new rope, how much labor?"

Parts Guy: "It should only take 15 minutes."

Me:

Make that parts guy do it. He seems to be able to do it in 15 minutes.

Other engine died from overheating due to a large rats nest.

Don't hate, when you are used to 95°+ weather 39° is cold.

Notice the plus sign Wayne? I didn't want to scare our Yankee cohorts but during the hottest part of the summer here 101°F or better with 98% humidity is a daily occurrence.

 

[Johnmn]

Gross! I couldn't handle that crap!

I have a coworker who is from Baton Rouge, one day we were talking and he said "Joe, do you know what the State bird of Louisiana is? The Mosquito."

Scored this a few days ago...a fairly rugged Sachs Dolmar 120si. Just put a new meteor in it...will likely
need a carb rebuild...hopefully get to test it before surgery on Tuesday

 

[JohnnyBlade]

Press/vac testing....just installed new crank seals on a 2159. After about 5-6 minutes both press/vac loses 1 lb. and so on. Start at 7lbs. is this acceptable or should it hold both indefinitely?

Great job there Al, that looks real nice!

Did you make the exhaust roof flatter than usual on that one?

I actually did.
