Well I'd sanded and polished and painted a gennie for Bel (thought I'd do a nice detailing job)
Looked at the regulator cover this morning before work and noticed one side didn't have good paint cover on it. The regulator was on the gennie and all was ready to go into Bel. Hmmm, I thought, wrap paper over the cleaned back metal on the cylinder, should be right, spray some paint on...........
Well tonight I took the regulator apart and cleaned the legs on it that got painted and the screw heads, and sanded the squirts of paint off of the cylinder. Decided the fan cover was dodge so took it back to metal again and repainted. Somehow I've become some crazed perfectionist:o
All I need to do now is get that damn nut off the generator shaft which holds the pulleys on😀 Na, have someone coming tomorrow to help
Hmmm, learning. Thick cord, thin cord D+, Df, for regulator. Could I blow something up if I'd got it wrong. Manuals are very handy
Done any thing stupid - Yeah came to work!!!
Futue te ipsum!!!
yep, last night I adjusted the tappets out in the lane 'cause it wasn't actually raining, 11.30pm thought I would do that "one more simple thing" change the incorrect pilot jet sitting on one of the carbies for the correct solenoid operated one, simple,:cry by 12.30am it still wasn't simple & not running right, by 1am it was back to where I started. "one more little thing" late at night can be the ultimate disaster when the vehicle has to go to work at 7am🙁
So was it public transport then?🙁
Hope things run smoothly today:sandrine
anything stoopid huh well lets see, for starters getting on the train to get to skool then actually going to skool other than that im doing alright
NO it HAD to get going again 'cause it is my wife's car, & she would take my Humber🙁

Bad news Kombikim. It's amazing how frustrating things get that late at night. Been there too often myself!!
Sounds like it's going again though.
🙂
yep it ended up fine again there was (is) a fixed 060 pilot jet in there so I replaced it with the correct 55 solenoid jet which was clicking ok but no amount of fiddling with the initial idle screw would make it run on 4 cyl, have to have a look in daylight, was quite a bit of work to get initial idle screw right again when I put the dodgy jet back in
stoopid stuff *part2* 4today

you should set an alarm
i have an alarm, it's not bad at all considering it gets thrown at a wall every morning. lasted a long time, close to two years now, mind you it only used to go off at 7 am for the first year
Not personally, but a friend last fri nite was trying to get her new engine running for the weekend, at 1130pm she worked out she had lost her kill switch key, once a replacement had been located(waking me), started the new engine to remember that there was no oil and that they had run out. so located oil at 1230 at nite. got it running.
went to work,
jumped out of plane,
came home from work.
i think that is classed as stupid, right???

getting it wrong would not be good. My simple trick for wiring or hoses (even when you have the diagram) is to wrap masking tape around anything you take off and mark where it came from. just mark them 1, 2, 3, or a, b, c. That way you can put things back without thinking. A good thing if you have a memory like mine.

I need a fang!!!
Got involved in some unconstructive gossip!
Forgot to ask husband to put the soft top back on my Bug last night. It rained today and I couldn't drive it 🙁
There has to be a trick to those annoying tops! I can't get the dern thing to clip up right at the back in the middle. Either there's a trick or I need stronger hands...
For the third morning this week , I got up got dressed and walked straight passed a perfectly good Oval, got into my late model company trolley and drove to work.
Were what I should have done is jumped in that oval, skipped work and cruised around all day. 😎
Wasted all evening responding to and fretting about a legal threat against this forum which I can do precious little about, when I should have made some dinner, and settled down to watch The Bill and Buffy from last night.
