Hi guys thanks for setting Dan strait about Daisy. He worked on her laying on his back on the cold wet and hard pavement to fix some part in her engine. He got her fixed and let me drive. I got part of the way out of the drive way and she dies 5 times. I pulled her back in. He want to drive her and of course she drove like a lady should, fast and clean. He got her all warmed up and handed her over to me to drive home. She truly is a beauty. I can't wait for him to fix her up so I can drive her all over the place. Kinda nice to officially own my car now..

Thats the way it SHOULD be. And thats how we know that is not the way it IS when you're married.

I agree Flea it is the way it should be. Cuz u know the old saying when mama ain't happy nobody is happy. But if u keep mama happy then u have a good chance u will get food on the table that night. If not it is fix it your self night.. again. Second saying I would like to remind you is that whats mine is mine and whats his is mine. so Daisy was mine even before I got to drive her.

Well was on my back again on the cold wet concrete working on Daisy. No rest for the wicked I guess Rolling Eyes


But dinner will be on the table tonight for my efforts. Shame I can't eat it.

Just getting than danged oil pressure sensor out. Took a long time to find a way to get ahold of it. I put the mechanical gauge on it and we have lots of pressure. I then replaced the sending unit with a new one and it pretty much agrees with the mechanical gauge. So a big load off my mind knowing we have good pressure in the motor.

Probably not this year. Maybe later when I get more stuff ironed out on her.

Well got Daisy past DEQ tonight. Didn't pass the first time, so I got the emissions pass stuff and it worked like a charm. Used this stuff several times and it's never failed me.

So maybe next week we can license her. Depends on how much $$$ we have (or don't have) after christmas.

Gaurenteed to pass is the name. Black box, schucks for $9.99.

Edit: I've tried this stuff with a full tank like the instructions say and it barely passed. For me it seems to work best at about 1/8 to 1/4 of a tank of fuel. This gives you the most gain in reducing the emmision levels.
