Congrats on the selling of your business and your move And thanks for your service! I‘ve been fighting a similar battle, slowly clearing some of my land. I’ve come to the realization that I will eventually need to hire/rent a backhoe for my largest stumps. I have a bit larger tractor, for...

Just paid $1.69 a gallon here, last year $2.19, both were price before early pay discount. We own our tank, and only fill once a year under the “Summer Fill” (best rat period) our supplier offers. Mike

Mine was filled yesterday, 8-30-23, $1.69 a gallon before the discount if I pay within 10 days, check went out today. I own my tank, and had signed up for the “summer fill” rate (no extra charge). I only needed 205 gallons to get me to 80%. We burn wood as our main heat source and last winter...

Helped my daughter move into a house this weekend, it’s furnished with a dryer. We pulled the lint screen, unbelievably clogged up, I don’t believe the previous renters ever cleaned it. I cleaned the hose and exterior vent, now I wish I had opened the dryer to do a inside cleaning. Mike

Van Halen, 1984, I was 14, one of my buddies and I were dropped off and picked up by his mom. Mike

Amazing, but a bit unsettling too. I think my wife would tell me she’s leaving but that I was welcome to go with her 😆 Mike

Nice work, I’m slowly clearing an area on my property for a future shop build. I’m eventually going to need several large stumps removed, wishing I had a backhoe. Mike

Sounds Pretty well thought out, we have had two above ground pools and 8 years ago installed an in ground pool. I may have missed it but are you going salt water? It’s the only way to go In my opinion. Once I open my pool and get it balanced I rarely have to do anything other than dropping in...

The night after my underground tank was Installed rained very hard. The next morning, tank looked like a submarine breaching the ocean. Second install was Filled w/Propane the same day. Mike

IAFF until I retired on all vehicles. Nothing these days. Mike

That’s a good point, water will separate from the oil and typically settle to the bottom over time.

I think addressing the fuel system first would be advised. If the tank isn’t too difficult to remove I’d pull It, empty and clean. I’d replace fuel filter too (fill the new one with diesel and install if possible). You will need a good battery and possibly a jump pack, it’s probably going to...

I agree with not removing the injectors ( my suggestion to remove was only if a cylinder lubricant was added). Mike

Have you checked the oil for water? Since it’s turning over easily with a breaker bar, I’d be inclined to move forward with attempting to start it. If you add any type of lubricant to the cylinders just be sure to spin the motor over without the injectors to clear them out, you don’t want a...

I haven’t either, I want it! Mike

I like the saying “If you fail to plan you planned to fail” Very important rule towards investing so you won‘t “Have” to work for the rest of your life. Mike

I built my Factory Five in 1999, started as a basic build, w/parts from a wrecked Fox body Mustang. I converted to carb. 302, 5sp. Ford B303 cam, lots of fun. I really enjoyed building it, I did everything including body and single stage paint. Since original build it’s been though numerous...

Year 7 for me (Retirement), I tell everyone I don’t get a vacation or any days off now. Mike
