Stopped at a bud's place to drink his beer while we did a 3 hole fluid change on his StreetGlide. As we began replacing plugs he put Teflon tape on the threads. I have always used thread filler. Never heard of using tape.

Work finally called me back. I have enough leave to carry me through around mid December. Should be close to when disability kicks in. If not, I have to start looking at the 401k

I use a tread filler also, may not be necessary but I thought of it as insurance.
