Try a different steering wheel.

Lol, I did that; but never thought my weeener would get snagged by the spokes. Ball sack? Another issue. Chain breaking or front wheel coming off doing a wheelie left me in AGONY.

I have my septic tank cleaned out every 5 years. What does everyone else do?

Nothing unless it needs it. A healthy tank won't need pumped as often as recommended ('They' say 3 to 5 years). The key is to find a septic guy that will tell you the truth. Of course there's just 2 of us on ours, and it's an aerobic treatment unit.

...fascinating captain...

 

[jason from mars]

Sorry man....we are simple folk here ....things are sorted out in stages

1. Meat
2. Potatoes
3. Engine problems, one by one we can help you out.

4. "....betty wont start, think I wiped the cam..." How did this all start out?

I'm sure that by starting at the beginning, we'll help diagnose the problem, and help you find a solution....right guys

If the cam is wiped....there's bigger problem afoot.

cam no wipe,, the cam was 1 tooth retarded, got it dialed in at 4 degrees advanced,,WOW WHAT A RIDE!, motor didn't last long, motorhome shortblock 83,000 miles, had a tick on the passenger side,, thought it was a misadjusted rocker...nope rod bearing,, full knock now...hot dam what a ride,, the lightning rods shifter added some pizazz 2 the interior, and no more cooked shift cables, rear entry ya know

 

[jason from mars]

might need to replace the crank, so thinking about having my spare turned...have the shop remove 40 thou off the inside of the rod journal and run 20 thou bearings,, longer stroke and higher compression with stock pistons..definately need to fly cut the pistons.. just turn a cutter with a diameter of 2.10, looks like a valve, 3/8 stem, install in stk head and bolt head down bring piston to TDC drop cutter/valve onto piston, feeler gauge at .220 thick between top of valve guide and lock collar, attach cordless drill..GO NUTZ. oops make sure you have shop vac hooked to a port on the head...same on exh side just 1.9 cutter...BINGO..drive it again next year

Find another 440 bottom end. Not easy I know

 

[kiwigtx]

OMG....I just realised....it was a bottom end problem all this time....or severe lack of compression.

Being from Idaho should have been the clue. It's a 'Potato car' .... engine runs like ....potata potata potata potata....

You're thinking of a Harley engine.....

 

[cosgig]

Sooo, now that the cars running, and Jason has his shifter caught in the steering wheel, can we concentrate on what’s really important here?

 

[jason from mars]

[RemCharger]

the severe lack of compression was cured with felpro blue stripe head gaskets
