    @ 7 am this morning, it was 25 here !...brrrrrrrrrrr..lol.
  5. Fuel gauge and clock won’t matter. i think you have a wire somewhere not making a good connection. The fact that it runs good sometimes is indicative of an electrical issue
  6. update: ok, i spent all day today getting this problem worked on. first thing i did was snag the drop down pipe, first try, the masonry line broke ( i knew it would, thin line through a sharp drilled hole ) so i drilled the hole out on my flapper to stick some 1/4 nylon rope through the larger hole in the flapper. got it down in the 2 inch casing, the drop line was only about 4ft or less down from the top, i was able to get the standing water out, slide the gizmo down into the drop pipe, quick yank, got it '' hooked '', easily pulled the drop pipe up. stopped by lowes, picked up a 1 inch foot valve, seeing how i was already doing all this work, may as well replace that while i can get the drop down pipe out !. got that taken care of. now to fix the bad 2 inch casing !?!. took me a few to get too it, used a short version of hack saw blade to whack it off, then used my angle grinder to level the top off. then glued a new 2 inch coupler down on the old casing, i then cut a 12 inch long piece to act as a riser. mounted the adapter to the new 2 inch pvcp pipe, used two large hose clamps wrapped around the 2 inch riser, stuck a piece of flat bar with a bend in it, up against the pvc pipe, tightened down the hose clamps around the flat bar's bend. then drilled a hole in the well house wall, used concrete bolt to attach the upper end to the wall. I then got the pump mounted on top of the adapter with a rubber gasket ( yes...it did leak i found out later ), bolted the pump to the adapter, got all my plumbing pipes ran back to the pressure tank. i then used another piece of flat bar to attach the very top of the motor lid, then on the other end, used another concrete bolt, attached it to the wall again. this pump ain't gonna fall over again !. by then, it was 4pm, i called it day, came back home, will head back down there tomorrow, and fix the gasket leak. considering i had to start from scratch to get this all back together ?, i'm one sore MF'R right now !..lol. enjoy the pic's of my hard labor !. oh..before i forget ?!!..i poured a half gallon of clorox bleach down the well before i slid the drop down pipe back down, still need to flush that for a bit tomorrow. p.s. in case yer wondering how i got the top of the 2 inch casing squared off ?, i used a hack saw blade, bent to almost the width of the concrete ?, then slowly...AND I MEAN SLOWLY !..worked it back and forth to cut the 2 inch casing '' some what level ''....then i used my angle grinder to smooth the top edge down better. it took a few min's to get this part done !.
  7. This took longer than I expected it to

  12. Always😁 All I know is, if the wife is comfortable she's happy, when she's happy usually everybody's in a better mood.🙂 As far as covered in snow? Not here, under cover during the ugly months. Only out when when I have to get rid of the "magically delicious" snow cover.😇 As far as windows open? Of course!!!! It's only been getting down to 18-20 at night. Sleeping with just a sheet on.😉
  13. Two for two.... All that snow plus a canned ham... Haha! Bet he's got those windows open again ...... Dead of winter most likely oh! About 12 or so degrees outside...

    It is 30 degrees this morning here in Lacombe , WOW , that snuck in on me Have a Happy Spring Equinox 2023 Monday, March 20 Spring 2023 technically starts at 5:24 p.m. Eastern time Monday, when the sun will be moving directly over the Earth’s equator — the central line between the North Pole and the South Pole — bringing almost equal minutes of daylight and darkness all around the globe. That moment is widely known as the spring equinox, but some people call it the March equinox or the vernal equinox. Here are some other interesting facts about the first day of spring.
  15. I think I remember that , was it said " snow covered Can-Ams are magically delicious "
  16. If the wrist pin journal has a loose fit , the piston will wobble , which will in turn egg shape the bore , you won't get very long from a rebuild , I find it is about 100 hours of time ------ the wrist pin journal is the end of the connecting rod where the piston mounts , which the connecting rod is pressed onto the crank , very good chance you need a crank after 4 rebuilds that were short lived ----
  17. Hm...... Painting a target on prov, eh ff.... Oh no no no... That trick won't change who the real target is... Haha!
