What did you accomplish today?

Thanks! Though it may just be bad lighting, the leaves are solid green. Im actually hoping that N starts to tail off during the last month of flowering. I much prefer the taste profile of buds when there is less N at the end. Though I still have 5-6 weeks to go.

Her sister will be having babies. Many many Querkle babies.

And hopefully in the next month the night temps stay low, we may get to see some purpling.
and some bulbousing

Lucky you! At least you know what you are doing. Today is a solid day of diagnosing, which translates to crawling through the engine compartment like a snake hunting for electrical issues in a 30 model y/o car. My back is going to be screeching, matter of fact it already is bitching.
I am dreading this too, 97 Tahoe throwing a vacuum emissions control code, thought It was as hose on the vac purge cylinder (don't know if that's right term even but the big plastic canister on fuel return line) that a squirrel or some other rodentia chewed through.

Going to have to fix it or at least "fix it" so I can pass emissions. I only have 2 months!

frickin bureaucratic bullshit....our dump doesn't take tires at all, there are 4 sites around the county, at businesses. the only one within 25 miles is full right now, have to call them weekly till the state comes to pick up the two trailers they have and drop off two more. i hate people that throw shit out along the road, but i'm beginning to see how they're tempted

Hahaha, fucken rats chewed through two plastic hoses on my wife's matrix, one of them is only sold with a new gas tank...$609.00 & $35.00 for the other one. I think I'm going to try and get one at a juke yard.

Good luck..... ohh and don't look for the leak with a lighter... just saying.

Back when I putzed around with vehicles we would use a can of starting fluid to find vac leaks.
Very brief squirts around suspected areas - if the engine picks up RPM . . .

Propane torches work also. Turn on the propane, don't light it...:roll:, and point the tip around flanges and gaskets. Slip a length of rubber hose on the torch for hard to reach areas.

Pfft.. It's an 80s car, no problem. What's it got like a dozen wires:P.

30 years old, most of them in 10% humidity and 110+. Wire insulation is flaking off. I need a new wiring harness.
Ron Francis and Painless Wiring are 2 companies specializing in reproduction harnesses. I believe they'll do custom harnesses if you send them an old one.

Fog your motor and undercarriage with a can or 2 of wd40 once a year or every other year. It'll help replenish some of the lost oils in plastics and slow the deterioration. Wipe down any exterior, unpainted, plastics also. Do this to a cold motor that can sit overnight, at least, and expect it to smoke a little the next day until it burns any excess off.

So I changed out 4 struts that didn't need to be changed. This is what I get for agreeing to do work, based off someone else's diagnosis, and explained to me by people that don't know cars. It did need the one bushing the guy said, which woulda been obvious to anyone with at least one half good eye. What it actually needs is both rear wheel bearing and hub assemblies. It shoulda only cost her $400 or so, now its gonna be close to $900 when it's all said and done. Meh, I got a new tool out of it.

Smoked multiple bowls of strains, went to Starbux uber baked and got a triple mocha. Put a total mind fuck on a telemarketer with a phony credit card number because they interrupted my video game. He cussed me out and i told him to go back to Bombay. Went to a taqueria. Hammered back some tacos and dos equis. Took a nap.

4 suggestions, 3 good ones (sorry @see4 ) and I didnt even give the code, I think it was P0149. If it warms up this weekend I'll confirm. Gotta help a buddy evict some deadbeat tennants tomorrow though, dont know why they even decided to lease to them all kinds of red flags, oh well.
