    Generator Starting

    I've got a generator / welder that I drag out and use about every 6 months. Been having to use starting fluid to get it to pull the gas up. Today I put a outboard motor primer bulb on it. Much better.

    Gear Oil

    I did something today that most people don't do. I have a 94 Toyota 4x4 5 speed, a little bump around truck. It turned 200,000 and I changed the front and rear end oil, transfer case and transmission. I can't believe what a difference it made in shifting. Put all synthetic oil in. I know I...

    I will never put another one of those hitch pins with a lock on any thing again. After several choice words and a hour later, I got it off. Might be ok for a truck that never sees mud water or make sure you spray some lube in it every now and then. Better to drill a hole in the pin and stick a...
