Good Morning All...looks like another great day...too bad I'm sitting in my cube and not outside

EternalOne · 03-27-2007, 10:51 AM

I got to show up at a Ford plant at 7:00am this morning, yey. We had a 15 minute window to install a major platform change on 2 lines, and 16 handhelds, or risk a $15k / minute downtime fee -- and my job isn't considered "high pressure". Bleh...

Good thing is I think that the Talon only ended up having a loose oil filter (idiots that changed the head, most likely). Gonna retighten tonight and put some oil in.. (crosses fingers)

Good to hear...hope that is all that is wrong...did you check to see if they left the old filter gasket on there too?? Could also be the cause.

Yeah, today is a great day once again. Too bad I am so busy. I didn't get home until midnight last night. But I did sleep really well with all the windows open last night.

You need about 300 less things going on buddy.

After only what 6 months of trying to find a supplier.

Thats a plus...how is the build coming along??

jrak123 · 03-27-2007, 12:41 PM

much better now. I still have to get your heads finished up as well as another set going to another local guy

Murdock · 03-27-2007, 12:42 PM

Any idea on the timing of it...just wondering if I have time to get them on before I go on vacation in May, and still have time to get to the dyno.
