bring it on. i think i have everything buttoned down for the winter.:msp_unsure: looks like a 1,2,3 punch coming .
 
Just dumped 4" out of the rain gage, started raining about 4am. This was the warm up for the next storm 6-10" between now and Monday and wind to pick up tomorrow, Stopped raining about noon and it cleared up a few minutes. Not really a whine because it is time, fish need to get up the road too.

About 9:30 this morning...

I wish it was raining. I lost a cylinder in my Bobcat T-320. :msp_sad:
When a 4 cylinder Kubota starts running on 3 you know something's wrong.
Mechanic came out and looked at it, pulled the injector on the dead cylinder....it had 0 compression. :cry:
I hauled it to his shop, it'll be middle of next week before he can get to it. So I guess I've got a little time to pray.
Maybe a stuck valve??? but compression wouldn't be totally 0, I wouldn't think.
Oh well, it's only money. :cry:

That's my whine for the day. Top that.

Pulled valve cover on Ford 4 diesel running rough. Weak springs. told em cheap to change now before they let go. Nope, we'll wait. ok.
Fours hours later, #3 ex spring cracked, taking out #2 in/ex springs, 3 valves dropped all the way down, punching 2 pistons and one sleeve. No cheap repair like a wait and see repair. yup
FBM.
see ya.
 
This one was kinda strange, to me.
It was running perfect, I shut it off and when I started it back up 15 minutes later it was running like crap, and smokin' like a mosquito fogger.

No, Andy, I know you really take care of your equipment.
I hope it is something easy to fix.

I was just p&m ing about some others that can't see a little saves a lot.
it wasn't like a set of springs and keepers were goin to break Wells Fargo
(well come to think of it, that's was a bad comparison, i guess).

My car just dropped a valve guide, piston hit the valve, bent it a few thou, zero compression.
You might get lucky. Have been waiting for two weeks for new guides from U.S.A.

I can always hope.
It's been 25 years since anyone said that to me. Come to think of it, she wasn't serious and I wasn't lucky. :laugh:

The rain sure is getting with it here. Sure am glad that I decided to put the good ol tin pants on today. The water shed jacket will be nice too. Yall getting your boats ready?
 
Got a break in the weather (90 minutes) and headed to the woods for awhile then the heavens open up and started raining pretty good but the wind also started and things (long things few inches in dia) started falling out of the sky

So I thought it was time to leave the woods
 
Not bad here,, drizzled for 10 minutes, dust control.
So I went for a hike up the hill just a tee on ,the sun even came out for a bit,,,guess I have nothing to whine about.:taped:
But deep down I'm thinking about you people,,,,
