Good afternoon. Well its been a busy day round the Rick house & garage ! Been trying 100 different things to get the lawn tractor to fire up. Just the other day after a 8 months of not running. I got it to fire up and run for about 5 mins or so. Then shut it off and tried to re start it. And it did just that But here 3 days later I can get it to fire. I changed the plug, Cleaned the air filter, New gas in it, Blew out the gas filter, I tried everything I can think of. So I put it on the battery charger for an hr! And I'll be damned if it didn't start and miss fire. So back on the battery charger again for a while. Hope it starts soon its going on 5 pm and I want to go over the lawn at least once today. Tad. It must be nice to work from home once a week. I never had that at G.M. Always had to be hands on . Jen I hope you get the morning shift and get back into having a Life . OHHHH yeah JEN. ?Where is that smoky burn out you were going to do ? HUH HUH .Dave Nice to see you on top of things on here. And THANKS for all the help you give me! I remember for a long time I didn't have a garage either. With 4 kids and a house payment and 2 new cars. I know what you mean about trying to keep your cars clean. Then one day I had enough of that s***!!!!. It was a Sunday and I stopped to buy a paper to read about football. Since it was the end of Oct by then. I took the want adds and started looking for another place to live. I saw 3 with in the city I was living at the time. Romulus, Mi. This one had a two + car garage. I called on it and it was still for $ale. I went to look at it by myself. Liked everything I seen. Then went home and took my wife to look at it. She liked it right off. So we went for it and moved in Thanksgiving day. The Kids were bouncing off the walls when I showed them the house. I think we all were Me mostly for the garage. Always had one after that. My last garage I had was a Virgin garage ! Brand NEW and nothing done to it on the inside. The owner only had a 220 line installed that was it. I JUMPED on that house also. I did the WHOLE inside. Installed insulation, vapor Barrier, then bought 10 dry wall. That way I could lay them down and around the garage. Then put another one on top of that all the way around. Less lines to match up and putty afterwards. Then the ceiling went in. OHH I also did my own wiring with the help from a friend at work. He told me what to do over the phone. I did it in 10 days by myself. The garage was finished before Shut down was over with at G.M. . Even had a service door put in . Kind of funny that we both had cars and none of them went into the garage then. Only our HARLEYS were allowed in there. My truck and her car again sat outside . Ok break time. The dinner bell just went off. C ya
