Ok guys, if I see any more attempts to sell stuff in this thread I will shut it down.

We supply you with Private messages AND free classifieds to put your stuff in, all just to keep the forums from looking like a junky flea market.

Okay, will do Mike, even though the hornblaster compressor is really tempting me. I will test it out when I get home on Sunday.

Lary, sorry about the sale stuff. Guys, I think it is safe to say, if you want to buy/sell stuff next week, bring cash with you.

not the way I wanted Larry to visit this thread.... OOOOOOOOOPS ! nice out today wasn't it? got home to the red rings of death on the 360, went out got the air line, and the blow off tip, blew the dust outa that thing from here straight to bill gates house ! for the life of me I would like to get it apart and make sure the chip has thermal compound on it, and the heat sink is clean. Coming down to the last 1/4 tank of fuel and showing 320 miles on the trip meter, looks like that quad box is helping a lot more now that it is fixed, and this is after mostly "city driving" I do have half a thought to talk the folks into buying a diesel car, and then letting them have all the bio diesel they want, provided they let me use the garage to produce it in a nice big unit, stand alone automatic. not like there is a shortage of fry places around here.

I got my exhaust tip last night, will need to break out my new sawzall next weekend when I throw it on.

Mike, haven't had a chance to test that compressor. Want to go to the big orange hut on Wednesday night for the rest of the parts?

So, are we bringing food to this shindig? I can bring drinks and such, even though the conductor will supply his own beverage of choice..... I will do this, but I need a head count so I know what to bring.

Have a great and safe Memorial Day Weekend guys!!!

I dunno if I can handle the orange place again, I was there twice today, and I'm not sure if they'll be too happy to see me again,........ might have to hit up the blue place up the road a ways...... I did manage to get a bottom drain in my folks pond today, and did a full once a year cleaning,,, what a day.

Wherever you want to go, doesn't matter to me. I have to check that compressor tomorrow so I know if I have to order a new one. Did the one from hornblasters come with wiring and such or did you have to get all that yourself?

the ones from horn blasters only comes with the leads on the compressor motors, the the relays, and the pressure switch. The smaller wires and wire connectors I got from radio shack, the primary run from the battery I got at the orange place, nice heavy stuff to carry the current, but a pain to work with as far as connectors go. For that compressor of yours radio shack's wires are plenty big, and fuses, lets not forget fuses.

I have small fuses, not sure of how big we will need to go. I learned an important lesson today, always have extra sawzall blades on hand, especially when you attempt to cut metal with a wood blade. Had to make a trip to the orange hut today and fight all the people buying plants, flowers, just for a set of blades. So are we on for Wednesday night at the blue palace?

Wow. long weekend... Pulled silencer ring out Sunday, holy whistle truck did good on the road trip, many impressed passengers, liver hurts a little bit, kind of thirsty again?! But, I think I convinced my friend to swap a 4BT into his 2wd S-10

Sunday is still good, certainly sounds like an early start if we have to dissipate by 1:30. Is 9 the idea? looks like skippin' church this week

Steve, shoot me a PM with that gauge info so I can let my buddy know before Sunday.

9 works for me, I could do earlier if we have to. Who else is wrenching on Sunday besides myself and the conductor?

I am going to try to get my gauges in. See if I can live with them in my butchered overhead pod or not. Not yet sure if I am dragging anyone else along yet
