  1. I thought they reported that the girl was staying there to "get back on her feet" ?
  2. You can effectively test the injectors with a 9v battery and compressed air.
  3. Pre-ignition is a result of overheat. Ultra-hot (glowing) bits of carbon on the top of the piston are acting like spark plugs. Cylinder scoring on a 4-S can be from contaminated oil (fuel in the oil).
  4. The amount of coking (burnt oil deposits) on the top of the piston indicates that it was not from lack of lubrication. If there is coking inside the BOTTOM of the piston then the cause can be labeled as "over-heated combustion chamber". Typically failure from overheat occurs on the top 2 cylinders (because heat rises) but I've seen plenty of cases where lower cylinders succumb to overheat first.....for reasons unknown. On a 4-stroke your compression readings may very well be skewed by leaky valve seats.
  5. Right. What actual crime are they being charged with?
  6. If it's in my best interest..... Sure.
  7. I assume that they meant "over the road" trucker, since a OVERLOAD trucker would be a whole 'nother crime. As for the questioning.....I doubt that either of those ol'boys could afford a lawyer. And "appointed" ones (public defender's) are a joke. It's easy to convict an innocent person without infringing on their constitutional rights...and that's all a public defender is there for.
  8. Well looky there....a lower unit and a Tilt/trim pump. Right on. 👍 😉
  9. Our beloved "authorities" cage people all the time. 50% of the time they need to be caged, and 50% of the time they shouldn't be, and doing so just makes matters worse. Let's not dismiss the possibility that it may have been for her own good. Getting her off the crack pipe maybe, or keeping her away from bad people that she just kept going back to over and over again. Ya never know.
  10. Adding computer control systems to outboards was such a grand success 🙄 that they elected to add them to trolling motors and everything else on the boat too. I'm happy to say that the only computer in either of my boats....is my cell phone.
  11. What in the hell is that all about ? Is this Cassidy person 2 eggs shy of a dozen, or what? "Rainwater" is her last name? Indian? Moon Valley rd. is a little too close to home for that kinda craziness. 😳
  12. I'm surprised you didn't say "Hey Dudes". The gayest footwear ever! 🙄
  13. When I was in my late teens/early 20's there was a game warden in Audrain co. that was a total badass. 'Nam vet. Wish I could remember his name because a few on here probably remember him, or at least remember hearing stories about him. He kept real close tabs on the bird, rabbit, coon hunters, and the trotline runners.....and he would climb trees, lay in the milo fields, and might just pop up out of freakin' nowhere (like a Jack-in-the-box) at any given time! He was famous for it. It is honestly a wonder that he never got accidentally shot. Seriously 😳
  14. Mighty fine! 👍
  15. He outsmarted you. Talked you into making his job easier on him. Actually what HE did was more illegal than what you boys did. And broke his oath by doing it. If you could have recorded that little interaction and taken it to the prosecutor......you could have owned his truck AND HIS BADGE. I can't believe they don't teach this stuff in high school anymore. Besides......if you're out on the ice can't you see the game Warden coming before he gets close enough to inspect what you're doing? 🤫
  16. Even when they are dead, burnt, and in a pile. 😂
  17. Lying is not a crime. Neither is keeping your mouth shut. They can't "charge them as a group". They couldn't even do THAT to the Branch Davidians, or the Manson family. And no, the group would be "wise" to shut up and say nothing.
  18. If they took it to court, and none of the individual hunters admitted to taking more than their legal limit.....then what? No sense in recommending the electric chair unless you have strong enough evidence to successfully convict. And we here in America should BE THANKFUL of that. Actually, if I was a member of that group, I'd say "Hey, I only shot 3 of them, so phuck those guys". I'm only responsible for myself. And I'm sure that's the way it will play out..... unless all of those guys are total idiots.
  19. I can relate. Even though I have 2 perfectly good hands, there was only room for one on the project I completed yesterday. Frustrating as hell. Work with one hand.....scratch my butt with the other.
  20. WTH? You still have to skin them ! No American squirrel hunter is gonna do that. Sounds like a "wet market" practice to me. If you're worried about getting fur on the meat, just dip them in a bucket of water. Can your even imagine what that smells like? 🤢.
  21. Kill them all. They taste great BTW.
  22. What just doesn't look right about that pile of squirrels ? What do ya suppose those dudes are up to? 🤔 I'm not buying the anonymous hotline tip...... There's more to the story there. Could it be a Wapsi conspiracy ? 😂
  23. Well if 2 Hybrid Stripers can't reproduce, and "Mutts" (white bass/hybrid crosses) are a figment of my imagination......Then where are the fish that Smalliebigs is catching in the Meramec coming from ? Riddle me that!
  24. He'll send you out there with Charlie for casting lessons. 😅
