    Works great in the beer fridge in the shop also. Just to keep it running well.

    But also exhauste manifolds. Any engine. Gas, diesel, harley. Start taking cylinder temps from cold start 1/2" inche from head. Compare temps and you will know a Light/Heavy cylinder, injector. Do it fast before manifold heat soaks. You can learn alot without a laptop.

    Years ago I was delivering a jet walk to the Nashville airport. I was parked in a staging area on the west side for the night, unloading in the morning. As I was standing there grilling some supper along comes a couple cops escorting some buses. They opened the gates and all the blue hairs, tackle box face and skinny pants passengers got into the waiting United jet via a portable set of stairs.

    I looked up the tail number on one of those flight tracker sites and it was going to Denver.

    The cops let the buses out of the gate and parked nearby to BS with each other. I walked over and asked what the deal was. He said the people were all hired locally on Craigslist and offered round trip airfare and a little spending cash to attend a Hillary Clinton rally.

    The political machine spends a lot of money to keep the narrative the way they want it. Nothing they present to you can be taken at face value.

    Law #40: DESPISE the “free” lunch. One of the most important things that I learned from my mom. Mom was trying to get food stamps and the women in the office told her that she would receive $25/month. For 5 kids. Mom was shocked, “Why so little?” The women behind the desk told her it was because she had a part time job, but if she’d quit her job, they would give her thousands. Mom, not being very bright asked, “Why would I quit my job? I have no intentions of living my entire life like this.”

    Mom turned and walked out. The women looked at her as if she was the biggest fool in the world.

    I have a strong dislike for those people. It’s like some dude who’s locked up and accepting the free candy bars and then complaining about unauthorized visitation in his cell. Don’t like getting porked, don’t accept anything free.

    Thank you! It will be on the it’s way to Tennessee this afternoon, first stop is her Dads house, it’s been 37 years since he has seen it in a complete form. Then another 43 miles to pigeon forge to the Jeep invasion for a couple days. It’s been a long haul, but it will be completed here later today after I get the hood latches on a a few other things.

    Not sure what I want to work on next, my 55 Chevy or my 1961 International Harvester B160…..
