There was just "Asshole II--The Sequel."

Was out for a few hours and just checked messages here.  One message (in a fake Bronx accent) went like this:

"Hey, butthead, this is St. Anthony and I just found your pushrods."



Catholic humor....

Don, I notice each time I end up back here the pushrods haven't shown up but the votes for
"lobotomized trainee of a one legged sheep herder" have gone up.

Once I accidently lost my Ex Wife in Mexico. But, she found her way home a few weeks later.

That just proves my own vote carries influence.  I was first to pick that one !

While an undergrad I created an ex-buddy by putting his drunk passed out annoying ass (while still wearing a toga from the evening's party) on the bus to Kansas City.  He didn't stay lost either.  Have to admit it's got more panache when it's a wife though .

Speaking of Toga, Toga.................could these be your missing pushrods ?

Found them.

[hd-dude]

Well........where were they?

[Twolanerider]

Well........where were they?

Exactly where they should have been....

Right in the middle of the parts cart.  Where I'd looked some uncounted number of times.

The tank of course came off much before the pushrods came out.  The dash was on the bottom shelf of the parts cart.  It got set there first.  Before anything else went on that bottom shelf.

I emptied the top shelf while looking.  Same for the middle shelf.  I laid hands on everything on the bottom shelf.  The pushrods were under the dash....

Don't remember ever picking up the dash.  Can't think of any reason I'd tuck the pushrods under there just to save space as there was still some space left.  They didn't roll under the dash as they were in a ziploc.  Damn gremlins.

[hd-dude]

The reason that they turned up is of course that the replacements have been installed. Otherwise you would still be on the hunt. DAMN GREMLINS!

[RJ749]

Found them.

   Yep, right there is a safe place.  DAMN GREMLINS

That's the truth Jim .



Potential mistakes like that are the difficulty of doing something like this an hour here and an hour there spread out over too long a period of time.  Just because you know it doesn't mean you can always do anything about it though.  The benefit of this one is a full set of nice shiny spare pushrods that are actually better than the ones in the engine.













(wonder how many weeks or months this will bug me before they get changed out?)

Congratulations Don. Glad you were able to have a closer.
