    I finally went back to work yesterday...again.

    I'm trying hard to figure out a way to earn a living without working, however, I'm not quite there yet.

    I took my daughter out on the boat probably 20 times in the last 30 days. Just rolled back into Florida today after being gone since Friday and looking forward to doing it again tomorrow if the weather permits.

    This #3 cylinder misfire problem is about to drive me bug crap crazy. Code popped again today and it's the same exact symptoms as always. Had to shut down early today, no big deal there, plenty of time to make my final. I shut down because I've noticed that if I let the engine completely cool off, it seems to run fine for 5-700 miles before it acts up again. I hate to do it but I'm going to take the problem away from our shop and to a Cummins house and see what they have to say. I've spent a good chunk of money chasing this and it keeps coming back.

    Other than this problem, all is well. I'm still profitable but I'd be doing much better if I wasn't throwing so much money at a recurrent problem.

    More later...
