Sounds like uremic poisoning from smeeling the fumes in restrooms.





Seriously, hope you get to feeling better, sounds painful.

Thanks Jim... I could barely stretch my hamstrings (the one where you.... bend over and grab your ankles ) But seriously, it's so tight and I kept stretching it out but I couldn't do it without wincing in pain. I finally gave up it hurt so bad and did a few other stretches. I'll do some more after dinner later.

Any luck with a commuter vehicle search btw?

No luck so far. Just have so little time. I now have a friend looking for me. He likes to do that kind of thing and has bought and sold several.

Got all the parts in for the tractor today. Put the shaft on the lever which is held in with a roll pin. The shaft and rotating assembly are keyed and I THOUGHT I had it all put together right. I put the keyed part towards the ground and as it turns out, it's suppose to face upwards. No problem right? Just take the roll pin out and flip the shaft around. Nope, can't get the pin out now.

You just need a bigger hammer.

Actually what I think you need is 5 gallons of gas and a match for it.

What size is the roll pin?

If you have a grinder you can make a punch out of anything....
