Follow-ups to problems (especially weird ones) are always cool, thanks Greg! Those terminals do look a little worn in your pic. Sometimes the connection between the wire and terminal goes bad too, which you can't see because it's inside the rubber. It may show continuity on the ohh-meter but not...

Pull the oil filter off and spin the pump with your drill motor. You'll know very quickly if it's pulling oil or not....just have some rags handy!

Maybe I missed it but I didn't see it mentioned yet...always give the crankshaft a couple of slow rotations while priming. Otherwise you likely get no oil to the top end.

Cool! Good to hear you're not letting one of the annoying kids run ya off. You're one of the good guys!

Most new stuff is like that. Case in point- My elderly neighbor's Toyota had the battery die while sitting in the garage. Well, so let's jump it I said. I don't think so Tim...without power we could not release the parking brake or put the car in neutral to roll the car out so that my...

Wow they're THAT much now? Sheeesh....

Very true. Last year on a business trip out of state my rental was a new Ford SUV. It was pretty nice, but all the heat and A/C controls were done through the touch screen--there were no knobs. It was infinitely frustrating trying to adjust things while driving. Key 'fobs', touch screens, rotary...

I went through a similar brewhaha with my '04 Ram after the DBW throttle stuck FULL OPEN getting on the freeway....thank goodness there was room for me to react and shut down safely. As I accelerated through the on-ramp the thing just kept going. Caught me by surprise for sure but I went key off...

RIP Cletus!

Red w/ white cool color combo!

That's likely not the rocker arms themselves, but the lifters or preload or oiling or the cam profile or any one of a dozen other things...setting up a valvetrain has numerous fine details and sometimes even then it's still noisy.

These guys are spot on...true converter bolts have thinner heads for clearance.

Good info here thanks guys! I'd never heard of 'Lares' before.

:thumbsup:

Hahaaa that's hilarious!:lol:

Get well soon Jerry and Mrs. Jerry! Wow I have a niece that's an RN and she just went through that same thing you did on her leg. Prayers for both of you!

You know you're in the country when a beer, a fishing pole and a rifle goes with you everywhere. And you're surrounded by dirt (that's what the beer's for--keeps our mouths clean!)

Orchids are so named after the Greek word for 'testicle'.....hmm I wonder why!

I guess not....maybe they know enough to set things up to oil correctly...
