Getting ready. Love my suction thing.

[Nomad74]

Love my suction thing for oil changes. Makes it easy and clean. When I first used it I didn’t believe it sucked everything out. I removed the drain plug just to make sure. Sure enough, the well was dry.

Getting everything ready for MF. Got the Promaster oil changed, the tires rotated, and today changing the oil on the 870 and making sure everything is organized and stocked. I’m sure I’ll be missing a few items, but that’s what you guys are here for .

Put the drain plug back in. Snug it.

Haha. Not taking it out this time. I trust my sucky thing. But I’ll apply your warning to the oil filter

 

[Nomad74]

Hey, I have a little surface rust on my exhaust manifold. Will Sapphire replace it?

Obviously, you ignored that service bulletin

I don’t read instructions either.

I won’t be using maps or GPS to get to Las Vegas. Dead reckoning all the way baby

If you end up in Alabama, call Coastie.

Looks like I won’t need to worry about my equipment freezing on this trip.

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Sounds like a fun trip, especially the "scenic" routes. Don't run out of gas, and remember the weather could turn on a dime this time of year.

I’ve had this thermal valve for about a year. Just been too lazy to replace it. Not a big deal with an APO system. But since I’m heading to MF I figured I should replace it. I know how you guys pick every little thing apart.

I’m also removing every piece of equipment and cleaning everything.

Can you please remove the black electrical tape off of your solution reel it is bugging me....

 

[JS41035]

Yeah and why no lock washers? Do you want the reel to fall apart? Also how are you gonna clean with no chemicals or hand tools?

 

[Nomad74]

Good lord! The things you guys notice. Tape removed.

Justin, I figured I’d stop at K-Mart and get some simple green in Nevada. No sales tax.

 

[JS41035]

Great. And would it kill you to paint the hose reel bolts? We always install stainless bolts then have them powder coated.

I see a scuff on your vinyl cuff. Shame!
