Pure Genius

 

I'd be happy if it started up on the eighth or ninth pull.

 

In the early 80's or maybe mid 80's I wanted to mow my yard every couple of weeks. During that time frame I was not making a gross buttload of money. 

Because of that a new mower was out of the question.

So yard sale mowers it is. 50 bucks here I come.

This one mower I bought. Man that thing was awful. If I got it started within 30 minutes I thought it was a  miracle. And then if I stopped it to empty the grass catcher, another fight to start was on.

I forget what the motor was, was not a briggs  and stratton.

Invariably it would take me an hour to get the thing running. New plug, clean the carb, got gas, it was in time,  good ignition, I just could not make it go.

I got so frustrated one time I threw the screwdriver I was holding. Hard. Very hard.

Ya know where it went? Right thru the damn gas tank.

Got rid of that mower and got another yard sale mower.

Best decision I ever made.

Here is a parody of a garth brooks song you might like.

How About You?

 

I'm hoping I can still learn something.

 How a Turbocharger Works - And What Kills Them

I admit I do not know anything about turbochargers, boost from them, and how to diagnose if something  goes wrong. Never owned one, drove one or worked on a car with one. Until now.

So. My daughter owns a 2015 ford escape with the 2.0L ecoboost engine.

Yesterday she had some whitish bluish smoke from the tailpipe and maybe running a little rough. Internet surfing indicates that can sometimes happen with turbos. At first I thought head gasket, but now I am leaning to something else.

One of her coworkers found a broken vacuum hose. Didn't have any tubing so they tried to tape it up. Didn't work of course.

I looked at it with my grandsons, they put a new piece of hose on it. That car uses a vacuum pump as a vacuum source, doesn't come from the intake manifold.

She drove it and for now it is driving normally. She said it drives better than it has in a long time.

So I am doing a learning regimen about this car and found the info linked above and thought I would share.

I paid for a subscription to alldatadiy for this car. It is very hard to find what I am looking for.

Do you guys know of a better online data service I can use??

WHY are these asshole republicans investigating anybody??

You know what? It's none of the governments mother effing business what my property looks like.

Wow. Just Wow.

 

Sure am glad I don't own a diesel.

My daughter had to go to Coalinga Ca for work today. That is approximately 1 hour drive south of Fresno Ca. She said diesel there is $9.19 gal. Saw a meme earlier where semitrucks are protesting by staying parked at the pumps and not filling up.

 

3 Days Ago It Was 5.29

 In 3 days my local gas prices rose almost 1 buck a gallon. WTF changed in 3 days?

Trindad Texas Police Dept. is Disbanded

 As far as I'm concerned, it's about time. Now disband the mayor and city council.

This is the police department that arrested a woman over a facebook post. 1st Amendment anyone?? Bueller??? 

She was criticizing the state of the towns water supply. And they arrested her for it.

Then some guy was protesting her arrest, and they arrested HIM.

Then some city officials got fired, including the judge who signed the arrest warrant to arrest the lady for her facebook post. It's quite a story.

Trinidad Water Saga

The article linked above gives a good timeline of the major events.

I think things gotta be pretty fucked up to get the state to disband a whole police department.

And I forgot to mention that the DA will no longer accept any cases from the police. How bout them apples.

And the police chief who arrested everybody conveniently resigned and moved to florida.

Can You Name These Muscle Cars?

 Sad to say I missed 5 of them.

Creative Insults

 I envy the people that don't know you.

Your two cents is why they're getting rid of pennies.

Does your asshole ever get jealous of the shit that comes out of your mouth.

I love that you don't let facts get in the way of your opinion.

Somewhere out there is a tree providing you oxygen. Find it and apologize.

I know you tried your best. That's what makes it so disappointing.

As an outsider, what's your view on intelligence.
