I don't care, I've got the tank with the 12 flange bolts.
I would like to just replace the twiston cap, but looks like everything requires a new flange and all

Rig it up to where if it comes open without the proper precautions it goes boom. Make sure the truck is insured and REMEMBER how to get the cap off without blowing yourself up! :D

anyone got any ideas on a locking fuel cell cap?
there's been a rash fo fuel thefts in my area because I got some new tweakers that moved in next door.
They already tried to steal the gas out of the old MJ tank, and it was in a location that could not be seen unless you walked up to my garage door. They got my neighbors Ram 1500 for 3/4 of a tank.

fawking thieves, I wish I could catch them, but the rest of us honest schmucks have to go to work everyday so they can collect welfare.

of course my wife is going with her girlfriends in a few weekends, so I may just move my car up the street to a friends house and wait in the garage with my shotgun.

It sucks living next to tweakerscrackheadtheves i feel your pain

the fawkers next door to me never stole any gas but they broke in to the house across the street and took what ever they could and even knocked over the lady's parent's ashes and spread them all over the living room, actually drove them out the house
the two that broke in weren't around for a couple weeks but i don't think they got caught cause the cops kept asking if we saw them, when i first moved in one was tiring to make friends with my dog, i wonder why :twak:

I have made it abundantly clear that my dogs and I are not friendly, and that I am usually armed.

it doesn't matter, they sit at home all day, so they know when we go to work or leave town.
I wish I could sit at home all day.

The conversation between the 10 year old kid and the parent was pretty funny. The dad was down at my other deadbeat neighbors house (the one that's had two infantcides i nthe last year because of negligence/drunkeness) and his 10 yr old came out yelling down the street that he needed a shower so he could go to bed because it was 9:30 and he had to go to school.
Yelling ensued.
I hpoe the kid keeps that attitude, it's the only way he'll make it.

Does anyone want to buy the nicest house in the neighborhood? I'll make you a sweet deal.

truth be told, I forecast the housing market collapse 3 years before it happened, but my wife didn't want to "waste money on rent"
So now we're stuck in a neighborhood that's rapidly going to shit, with a house that's not worth what we paid.

I'm not bitter, really.
 
the rusty silver XJ has 338K on the clock, and a friend has been DD'ing it for the last 2 months when the trans went in his focus.
 
Well, crud. There goes my weekend. Semi-emergency patching on Sunday morning.

"You want to pay me in beer?.........hmmmmm... OK" :D


My dream job would be brewmaster of a small to medium sized brewpub, preferably on Kauai.
 
Been looking into trading my New colt M4 .22. Its fun to shoot but I get more enjoyment out of my Marlin .22. I think its time to step up to a Remington 700, I almost traded my gun for a Remington 700 in .243 yesterday but the guy sold it when we were negotiating a trade. I was ready to drive 100 miles to pick the thing up today. I was not happy! :smsoap:
 
After a week,got my putor back from the shop.The mother board went out...It sounds like a jet engine is running in the dang thing. Hope I can quiet it down.

Havn't tried to play any video yet.

Sounds like a fan issue, Nick. Simple and relatively cheap.
 
Been on vacation all week. First time I've taken a lengthy vacation since I started my job. Of course I didn't go anywhere, just did little chores around the house. Dad came down and we ran five more circuits in the garage, I've got 20amp runs for my block heater (with a timer in the wall) and more outlets in the garage. Now I can actually use my crappy 110v welder. Also got a 220/30amp for future expansion. :D

Plus I got to sit around with my dad and have a few beers. Doesn't happen nearly enough.

And Neal bought a 1990 XJ today. Something to wheel until he gets his Xterra fixed again. Pretty solid vacation overall.
