March 5, 20179 yr Popular Post Grandpa Dave..... My wife Jill is missing. She went shopping yesterday and has not come home! Sheriff: Her height? Gramps: I'm not sure. A little over five-feet tall. Sheriff: Weight ? Gramps: Don't know. Not slim, not really fat. Sheriff: Color of eyes ? Gramps: Sort of brown I think. Never really noticed. Sheriff: Color of hair ? Gramps: Changes a couple times a year. Maybe dark brown now. I can't remember. Sheriff: What was she wearing ? Gramps: Could have been pants, or maybe a skirt or shorts. I don't know exactly. Sheriff: What kind of car did she go in ? Gramps: She went in my truck. Sheriff: What kind of truck was it ? Gramps: A 2016 pearl white Ram Limited 4X4 with 6.4l Hemi V8 engine ordered with the Ram Box bar and fridge option, led lighting, back up and front camera, Moose hide leather heated and cooled seats, climate controlled air conditioning. It has a custom matching white cover for the bed, Weather Tech floor mats. Trailing package with gold hitch, sunroof, DVD with full GPS navigation, satellite radio, Cobra 75 WX ST 40-channel CB radio, six cup holders, 3 USB port, and 4 power outlets. I added special alloy wheels and off-road Toyo tires. It has custom retracting running boards and under-glow wheel well lighting. At this point t Gramps started choking up. Sheriff: Take it easy sir, we'll find your truck....
March 5, 20179 yr I think I can do this one Patch...3rd plug from front on left bank...if it had been #4 or #8 cylinder might be different story; those are back under the firewall cove...bi-focals don't focus well long distance. Only one bolt and a two prong connector to coil to remove. No plug wires on this one; individual coil for each cylinder plugs directly on the spark plug; Boot part of coil leg that covers the plug well. you-tube video shows a guy changing one out in <7 minutes, albeit #2 cylinder...easier to access. Bad thing I learned, the ECM doesn't disable the injector on mine model when no spark is detected; I drove it home about 12 miles; I assume raw fuel sprayed into cylinder...hope it didn't wash out to much and score cylinder/piston; had I known ECM did have have fuel disable detection; would have manually disabled injector; of course at that time did not know trouble...could have stopped at Auto Zone or Advance Auto I suppose for quick code read...don't always trust their technical ability though. I've got pretty full complement of tools from wrench bending days to do most all jobs; all housed in my old Mac 810/820?? model Tool box & roll cab...

March 5, 20179 yr Popular Post Been enjoying the newest addition to our all week and weekend. Our 2nd son was born on Tuesday this past week. Baby and momma couldn't be healthier. He as a big boy at 9 lbs 12 oz and 22.5 inches long. Big brother was happy as well. So we have spent all week trying to catch back up on sleep after pulling an all nighter on Monday night during labor . Probably just falling more behind though haha... Now I get one month paid leave from work so I will probably find a little time here and there to get out in the shop. I did manage to get one glue up complet for the blanket chest I'm working on. Still have to clean it up and cut it to size before I add breadboard ends.
March 5, 20179 yr Congratulations to all of you!! Big brother couldn't be any more excited or proud I don't think...OK, maybe pappa too! Some things are just more wood. Thanks for bringing Jacob to the forum...our newest member and youngest too!!

March 6, 20179 yr Looks like that little one project turned out a-ok. Compliments to the chef (well, you know what i mean). Hope you and mama are doing ok and manage to get a little rest inbetween.
March 6, 20179 yr Author Congratulations Trey! Glad everyone is doing good. Now you'll have plenty of shop help!
