Having fun now!
Well, not really, working on engines was fun when I was 21, but not now. I have been planning on doing a tune up of the motor home all week. I started out by pulling the carburetor so they would be sure and get the right rebuild kit or a new one. After Vera got home from bible study and lunch was over, we headed down to NAPA. They did not have a rebuild kit or spark plug wires, but could have them here at 3:30. I came home and pulled the valve covers which were leaking to put new gaskets in. I cleaned on them until 3:30, then went down to pick up the kit and wires. I also needed some cleaner, pvc valve and gaskets. I came home planning on doing the carb this evening, but the gaskets in the box were completely different from the shape of my carb. Trip #3 to NAPA, the carb kit was for a Carter and my carb is a Holly, the right one will be there tomorrow (trip #4). Things were going so good, I decided to call it a day and catch up on my blogs. I hope you did not have to work on an engine today!
