Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

About three weeks ago, my radiator let me know it wanted attention: when I got home from work, it was steaming. The leak appeared to be in the engine-side up near the top. a few days later, I backed the truck into the garage and pulled the radiator. Then my wife broke her ankle and needed surgery, so my time to work on the truck has been limited. I managed to get the rad up to what appears to be the only radiator shop in this time zone, and they're 3 weeks behind on work, so we'll see that they say when they can.

I popped the cap off the distributor today, and it's time for cap, rotor, module, coil (probably--why not while I've got it in pieces). I also checked a spark plug, and the electrodes are beginning to erode, so I guess he wants a set of them, too.

I think he's just jealous: I have been putting money and work into the tractors all summer, and he feels neglected, so he's making me spend money on him now. *sigh*
