  2. Hmmmm, sounds like mraf had it right...... Glad to see your dad's getting what he needs and you are around to help him, things work in mysterious ways, as we all know. Prayers going for a successful surgery and a quick recovery, don't worry, it's still chilly down there! Dan & Rose
  3. You're just getting it all out of the way early this year Gerald, good luck with the fix!
  4. I DID manage to get out for a short ride today, about 20f this afternoon. Went about 20 miles thru the country, then a short blast back up the freeway (da*n what a mistake!) and then back to the house. It felt great to get out there for a bit. Now mind you, this is without any of that fancy heated gear!
  5. I'm thinkin' Brad still has fuzzy eyes and brain from last night!
  6. Happy New Years ya'll, we're doing the same (I'm actually drinking some Vodka!) with the daughter and her boyfriend, just checkin' in here every once in a while.
  7. Yeah, try having Anthem BC/BS as your Cobra administrator------ I'll stop there
  8. Keep dreamin Gene, keep dreamin'!
  9. Me & Rose and my trusty steed Dano--- Who sez BoomerCPO is most likely talking out of his other mouth, and could possibly settle that argument permanently come MD, IF he decides to show up- whadya think Yammer and RandyA, wanna lay some $$ on that one? (BTW, Muffin should be there so I'm not worried in the LEAST bit!)
  10. The YICS system on a MKI WILL start to leak at some point in time, just remove the whole thing and plug the ports on the intake manifold(s). Do as suggested and check for vacuum leaks all around the carbs. Keep the air filter and box cover on when running the motor, too much air getting in there with it off. Good luck, Dan
  11. Well, just keep leavin' us 1st genners out of the goodies and see what happens! Oh yeah, that's right, they're buit into our bikes!
  12. Ah, to throw my 2 cents in (after the above anyway), everything is designed to be thrown away in 2 years or so anymore. They figure they can stay in business that way.
  13. It's just all those gizmos you got plugged in there Jeff, ya gotta remember to unplug them! Now, as far as that nice waitress giving you a "boost", well, we need some more details!
  14. Looks like someone will be busy over the holidays........ Good luck with the soldering gun!
  15. HHHHMMMMM, snow on the ground with a cold blast from Canada coming in Friday....... Does it count if you roll the scoot out in the driveway and start it up and just sit there on it running for a few minutes?!
  16. Glad I was out of town and missed this one!
  17. I'll be needed one of those for the 87 Jack, let you know in a couple of weeks when I can fund it.......

    Janis Joplin

    Her lead guitarist from Big Brother and the Holding Co. just passed away last Sunday, but I'm in agreement with you, love that style of music.
  19. Jeans, wallet, no safety chrome, family got Wii sports plus, dumbells (already got 2 of those!), boy got a freshly BUILT 350 SBC with long headers, new BF Goodrich radial T/A's, we'll get the rims tomorrow for his 79 Camaro, daughter got daughter stuff My best surprise and gift this year? Getting to see Brad and Lonna on their way up to Michigan!
  20. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to ya, may the smiles equal the miles in the coming year for you and the missus. Just think, now ya got a whole nother year for Brad & Lonna to finally stop by the house! Dan
  21. But they're closed already, he wanted to get a start on pulling it apart, I would imagine. If he was up here, the trailer would have got him and we'd be in the garage tearing it apart. Got the tools to do it. He mostly needs the axle bearing nut socket, about 2-1/4 to 2-1/2" I believe. got one for a jeep and one for a Blazer in there. Hope you get it fixed pretty easy, Bob, and you've got a dry and warm place to do it in. Merry Christmas and sorry this happened to you, good luck for the rest of your travels, Dan
  22. I think you're on the right track Jack, it has to be something in the pushrod route and function that is causing this. Either it is the cup which is not returning, the oil seal at the left side of the case could be getting hard and not allowing full retraction of the rod when cold, gunk behind the cup from the hydraulic fluid or the piston cup could be pitted and catching on the slave cylinder. Might as well pull the slave cylinder, pull out the long rod from the left side of the case (tricky, but can be done), pull the short rod from the clutch side and check all pieces. Roll the long rod on a flat piece of glass or steel to check for warpage (might not be much), change the fluid and reassemble. As far as the full plate at the back of the clutch pack, remove the plates and friction discs, remove the small spring wire around the outside, remove the half plate and replace with a full disc. You don't need to re-install the spring wire, restack your plates (hopefully you kept them in order) make sure to match up the notches properly with the clutch boss cage. (Do I got that right fellas?!)
  23. Pegs are nice, want a set myself one of these days, that cupholder, if mounted on the passenger grab bars or elsewhere in the wind, WILL manage to detach itself and roll down the road till runover by a cager........... Don't ask me how I know (BTW, I still got the wife thinkin' she left it somewhere!)
  24. Great news to hear Karl, and we certainly hope that surgery goes off without a hitch next time! You kinda feel they know about the previous snafu and are trying to make you feel good about it. Best wishes for Christmas and the New Year for you and your daughter, Dan
  25. Who me? You mean I actually have to log off of here to go out and take care of responsibilties? What a tragedy!
