Yeah, I'll probably go back and forth a few times on it. Smashing my thumb and making very little progress on removing dirt/gunk and what not. I need to play patient definitely has me leaning toward "forget it, replace the stupid thing." I did name this "slow progress," didn't I? Just gotta play patient.

I'm buying all my own tools at the same so I dig in and it's like "oh, I need a cylinder hone." Last time I did any major engine work a buddy brought over anything I needed. This isn't a new hobby for me, but it's the first time I've done anything big on my own budget since being married.
