Wanted to go for a spin in the 78 VW Bug Cabrio this weekend and we got about half a block when we smelled gasoline. Turned around and pulled into the garage only to find a fuel hose leak on the cold start valve. I pulled out some hose and new clamps and fixed the leak spit spot. YAY!

I pulled out my old timing light and found that the timing was off quite a bit. I went to loosen the clamp to adjust the distributor and the nut wouldn't budge. I tried and tried and then finally rounded off the nut. FUCK!

It was too tight in there to get any vise-grips in there. I drove by a friends shop to tell him what happened and he told me I could just take the distributer out by unbolting the back of the clamp from the engine case. Easy peasy! YAY!

After easily removing the distributor, I got a clear view of the clamp tightening bolt - FUCK!





Why can't anybody treat my car with respect? Is it legal to shoot somebody for doing this? Not in the head - just in a knee or a foot.

I took it apart and bent everything back to the correct shape and replaced the nut. Re-installed the distributor and adjusted the timing.

The car runs great now - YAY!
There went our lovely weekend - FUCK!

Cheers,
Mo

i'm sure you enjoyed fixing the car more than you would driving it. i know you classic car guys are all nuts like that. the wife probably thought you scuppered it yourselfo_O

i dunno about shooting the guy, he was just being a mechanic, do you know any good ones? lol

So I have a new little one myself. Some fucking spanish lady dropped a tiny kitten through our fence into out garden on Saturday. We saw her walking down the road as we were getting home. I guess she just followed our car and dropped the thing off. I saw her walking away from our house all confused, like how the fuck is she walking away from our house? Then a few seconds later I hear a tiny meow. Seriously not amused.

Luckily though no one is sick. Although the car is falling apart. On the highway the other day the grill flied up barely connected. I pull to the side and pull it off, throw it in the back seat. I also drove around a round a bout at least 3 times. We have reached official National Lampooons European Vacation status.

Does the Marion Berry smell sweet yet?

Some sweet/fruity smells but nothing crazy on that one. There is another pheno though that has some real nice odors coming through.

Thanks alpha :-) My plants have gotten nothing but water and tricked out compost teas, can't imagine I'll have to feed them for a while if at all in those big pots... Maybe a small dose or two of organic ferts in flower.

Hey Folk's, sorry bout the MIA, been in the dog house for longer than i can remember, parted way's with my grow partner, ( these thing's never work ), and most likely my last grow for a while. I honestly cant remember when i got 2 run's in same place! The local council have more or less made me and my lad homeless after refusing to add me on to another tenancy! Ive looked about and it seem's to be a common thing here, growers are being evicted for a few plant's but never junkies, peado's, crazy's the list goes on...
I got took all the way to eviction with my son for 3 plant's for my personal use, and ive got Heroin Dealers getting ASBO's ffs!

Anyway ive got a tent full, 10 plants, 5-6 strains and more importantly MY Scottie Dog Back!!!!!!! Got a guy who's been holding his cut the whole time! And the one i started from the selfie seed's is just like all the other's, had a few sack's that once removed didnt return and didnt seed-up anything, look's so good i cant believe it was almost gone

Sorry for the yellow pic's, wow things have changed since that tent shot! Everything's staggered from 6-7 week's down to 4-5 with the dog being last in line due to harvesting lot's of clone's :-)
