That sucks, Chester.
Unfortunately, practice does not make dealing with that stuff any easier.

Hope you're all doing well this morning. Pushing 40 degrees today so I'll be changing out the starter on my snowblower. Normally I can pull start it, but when the temps drop below zero I can't spin it fast enough. Starter died last winter.

Use your mad mechanic skills built from working on Harleys to rebuild it instead.

Partner that road trip was one for the history books , my little blurb touched about 20% of the insane crap we got into , god I wish there had been a camera around for the pig, was sheep involved too.
