  • Good day...

    was taking my cams off yesterday and lost a nut in the engine, was so mad i called it a day and went inside. today i pulled the head off to see if i could get a glimpse of it down in the crank case and to my suprise it happened to wedge itself on the ledge next to the CCT and the magnetic tipped screwdriver i have pulled it right out. i'm guessing i should go buy a lottery ticket now since that will never happen again

          Do not hide in a Camper!!. Tornadoes look for trailers and campers to wreak their havoc on. Might be best to have a beer and relax a bit, then go punch someone you dont like right smack on the nose. At least that way if Karma gives you a shot in the head you may deserve it.
