Yes, it's been a while in that department though. Prices have been nuts.

Stay away from o'riley brand of oil filters. Brand new filter and oil everywhere. The top of the filter blew out. :faceepalm:

First time using one. Normally jedi uses Napa or farm brand.

Did you double gasket it ? Lol

 

[Ballstater98]

1st time shooting with the silencer. Nailed the target, with his pistol, on the 1st shot!

 

[d.kaufman]

Did you double gasket it ? Lol

My first thought as well

 

[jedi]

No. That is the strange part. jedi has seen that before when it's double gasket. This was a single gasket.

So jedi goes to Walmart for a farm one.
Get back pull it out of the box and it's the WRONG one. The box is for xg2 the filter is PH30 inside.

Fjl!!!!!

 

[jedi]

So two vehicles done.
No desire to Bleed the breaks on the 3rd vehicle now. Been at this since this morning. Tired, hungry, and dirty all over.

Oh what fun.

More like jedi lost the mechanic jedi had. The guy got tired and quit. jedi trusted him. jedi knew him for 15 years.

Sadly with him gone jedi is left to jediself to do the basics n medium stuff.

Don't trust others 2 do it right n jedi is on the road a lot

Apart from buying a Garand and a M1917, I have pretty much quit collecting them

 

[melensdad]

Needed a new battery for the lawn tractor. Figured it would be about $65, give or take a bit. My lawn tractor takes a fairly large battery, but still.

With TAX and a credit for core-trade in on my old battery, price was $208.

WTF, I thought the gubmint said this "inflation" was only 'transitory' and would not last?

Kid found a pretty impressive spearhead (or knife? Verdict is still out) today!

No, the deal has to be right. I like history, innovation, and oddball things. I would love to have a AG 42. Day I saw an AG 42 at the right price, there was a WWII Luger at the right price. Love my Luger!

Edit: anyone a Ljungman they want to part with at a correct price?

Fired up the heater early this morning, pool was warm enough (84F) and occupied late this afternoon. It will be warmer tomorrow, despite the rain. We usually keep it about 88/89.
