In the doghouse

[secondchance]

Long story short, I picked up a used power steering cooler to replace mine which is all chewed up. I know! No one can see it but I know it's all raggedy. Right?
It arrived last night and decided to clean it up a bit. I filled it with mineral spirit, sloshed it a bit and drained it into a pan in the laundry room adjacent to the kitchen, breakfast room and living room. Boy! Did the Mrs. ever get pissed off... I never had any aversion to petroleum or solvents and assume the same for everyone else. I guess I am wrong... Won't be doing that again.

Cool you ever rebuild a carburetor on the kitchen table?

I tried rebuilding a Holley 650 probably in 83 I think. Come to think of it, that didn’t go too well either.

I used an oven for baked enamel finish on LT5 coolant cross over pipe once.

I hear what everyone is saying.
Between the car, motorcycle & airplane parts always being in close proximity, I had to make a decision.
I chose the car, motorcycle & airplanes. Have not regretted it for a second.
I do have a rescue dog. She loves me and never says a word!!

I did, but before I was married. Used gasoline as the solvent of choice. 4 barrel from my '67 Coupe. Worked like a charm afterward and didn't burn down the house. --Bob

At the kitchen table, a lot of Brides don't like the smell of
Hoppe's No.9 either....

The longer you are gone, the happier they are to see you when you get home.

That is for sure!
In return, I spoil her beyond all reason!
