Smithvillesteve Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 Warmer weather has helped with virus" in the past. They are not sure with this one. Hopefully you are right. I was down at Pomme and Truman all last week and i thought at least i am safe here! Then i find out one of the first cases in Mo was down in this area and he was treated at Clinton hospital!! mixermarkb 1
mixermarkb Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 I'm not making any claims about temps, I'm pretty sure this isn't going to die out from heat, but UV light does help kill viruses, and the sun makes UV light-
dtrs5kprs Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 Lot of that AC compressor stuff going around, apparently. Mine went out in the Excursion. Decided to fix vs trade because it's an actual unicorn. Planned to drive our spare F150, and did for a morning. In the space of about 4hrs a squirrel built a nest on the warm engine. Chewed through the distributor wires, vac hoses, 8-10 other wires. Right down to the plugs. $300 mess. I'm in the squirrel tail business now. If you like a Mepps for whites, you're welcome. vernon, abkeenan, magicwormman and 1 other 3 1

Bill Babler Posted March 15, 2020 Author Posted March 15, 2020 Chipmunk invaded my wife's Mercedes engine, and lets just say $300 was pretty much the tax on the repair bill dtrs5kprs and mixermarkb 2 http://whiteriveroutfitters.com http://whiteriverlodgebb.com

Members mstpstl Posted March 16, 2020 Members Posted March 16, 2020 couple years I suddenly had all kinds of issues and warning lights start on my '15 F150. took it to the dealer as I have the extended warrentee. Found out it was a darn Chipmunk had crawled up and chewed thru a wire harness, $740.00 to fix Dealer said he'd been seeing a lot of it, seems few years ago Ford switch to a more "bio Friendly" insulation on the wiring thats based on Soy bean. apparently its tasty to critters dtrs5kprs and magicwormman 2
