RNG, Rich, pick your poison. Lucas or Bosch.

We always called Lucas “the prince of darkness”, but in either regard just be thankful it’s not Magnetti Morrelli.

Good Morning!!!! 50F @ 5:15AM. Partly cloudy skies this morning will give way to occasional showers during the afternoon. High 62F. Winds SSE at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 60%.
Showery weather through Wednesday this week, but then the sun comes out and highs will be in the upper 60s next week.

February already. That was quick.

Got in touch with the gate guy and sent him a video. Now we'll see what he recommends.

No luck with stuck valve, so it's time to add some heat to the equation, and maybe pull off the handle to get better access for the penetrating oil.

Truck is loaded and trailer hitched, but the wheel bearings seemed a bit loose when I checked them yesterday so I think I'll regrease them.

Hope everyone's week gets off to a good start!

Good Morning,
It’s 25 out and has been snowing since yesterday morning, I awoke at 5am to the sound of sleet hitting the skylight. Got up and peed, and went back to bed, just woke up again now. Not supposed to get above 30 and wind will pick up as snow continues until late tonight.

I guess I’ll get up and fix breakfast and do the first pass on the plowing. Wife is apparently in the barn and the big dog says she wants to go out. When she speaks, I listen

If he recommends High Quality Automatic Solar Gate Openers & Accessories he is a good gate guy.

This is the gate Wrought/n/Harvey installed at the farm and Mike also had one.



Good morning! 37˚F, heading to the 60s, clear sunny sky.

National Texas day as Thomas pointed out but fittingly so it is also National Serpent Day.

IME, the Lucas alternator equipped bikes pretty much work. What doesn’t work is the clueless working on the Lucas system and causing more harm than good. Biggest issue with these systems are wiring gauge is a bit light in some areas and relying on chassis grounds. Too much resistance. I make my own harnesses to fix everything or modify existing harnesses to address ground issues. And the aftermarket has some excellent products to improve charging regulation.

Now a dynamo system.......I am losing hair that I am pulling out with a dynamo that is being a PIA........

good news from oncologist, PET scan came back negative, no spread, all good.
I asked him if I could start buying green bananas again and he said yes. :thumbsup:
that's a big load off my mind. Now I can start thinking longer term.

nasty combo out of sleet, hail and snow, but it's slowly accumulating
Decided it was just too miserable out to go out in car

Is great news. On the bananas too. Good for you.

daugen, great on the negative scan!

 

[daugen]

thanks.

pebbly snow coming down, another inch but cleaned off walkway and really laid on the ice melt to see if it will last.
I know it won't.
Put more birdseed out, and it was a mob scene by the time I got back inside.

One of the main reasons Fiats stayed on the side of the road so often.
