brain farts

[Jthomas]

so ive been wrenching every day

i wake up at 9, go outside and work all day, then around 8pm or so, i start struggling with everything. all day im just doing busy work (fix that leak, re-jet, new needle and seats, re lash valves, fine tuning)  
so then after i re assemble the carb, i put it on the truck. then i wonder why the fuel lines are on the wrong side. so i realize i have the bowls on backwards. so i remove the carb, flip them around, re install. then realize now i have the meetering plates on backwards... so i remove the carb, dissasemble, swap, re assemble, install on motor...

then its time to lash valves after i ran the motor.

i have a breaker bar in the blower, i rotate the motor by hand, get it where i want it. put the valve covers on, realize they are on the wrong side. swap sides... hop in the truck and fire it up again...

wtf was that sound?!?!

get out to find my broken breaker bar, sweet... i forgot to pull it out of the blower, so it fliped around against the frame and snapped the tip off in the blower. so now i have to drill it out.


then i realized, i havent eaten a thing allll day.  SO THE MORAL OF THIS WORTHLESS STORY: eat your wheaties

So,what was your lack of common sence?

Omg that so sucks bud

[fordrunner]

Wow that sucks can't be cheap

[Jthomas]

Yeah I'm just glad it didn't throw it through the hood or fender

It's snapon, so it can be replaced. But drilling it out sucks, tool steel is hard as hell
