tsi_tom Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 I'm so bored. It is too cold to do much on the Conquest. I might go out and take apart a broken G54B. Anyone else bored to death because of this weather? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr-starion Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 At -25 to -35 celcius everyday, theres not much to do here, garage is freezing, cant go skiing, cant play hockey, its just too cold, depressing, and full out boring. The forecast for us is no better for the next 14 days... I miss the -10 weather in winter, its never been this cold for so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCillini Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 25+ mph winds in my backyard 6 feet off the ground is about to strip anything not nailed down out of my yard. No snow here and sunny but too windy and cold to be out either. Just watched the wind pick up a 12 foot piece of metal roofing and a cinder block and toss it 10 feet. Wish i had recorded that.

Guest Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) I can't imagine being buried in snow like that for so long. I would go nuts indoor. Got hot enough to turn on the AC today. Washed my tow truck, went for a drive in the Conquest, taught my son to ride a bike, went on a Valentine's day gift run for the wife and now out to dinner. Then later on drinks at a bar. "Today was a good day." Ice Cube Edited February 15, 2015 by louswheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.

Much better than the engine I rebuilt. I wonder if I can just run with it.... http://i1069.photobucket.com/albums/u467/tsi_tom/The%20Missouri%20Project/Original%20Engine/Tear%20Down/cylinders_zpsxagfqiww.jpg Crack in the head. http://i1069.photobucket.com/albums/u467/tsi_tom/The%20Missouri%20Project/Original%20Engine/Tear%20Down/G54B%20crack%20in%20head_zps5gtwhcqv.jpg This engine is the original out of my car. I rebuilt another engine not knowing how bad this one was. It overheated, crack exhaust manifold, and had very low compression. The rear head bolts where very loose too. The head gasket is in bad shape but the cylinders look great. I think I am starting another engine build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsi_tom Posted February 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Nope, been working on the snowmobile all day I love snowmobiles. I had a Suzuki 440 Fury that was a ton fun. It had the awesome silver metallic fake and orange stripe. I almost died on it a few times Here is a picture http://www.hewtechelectronics.com/images/Suzuki-fury.jpg Edited February 15, 2015 by tsi_tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techboy Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 This thread is funny ... I was just telling my wife how bored I was this morning. I recently got the car in the garage setup to work on - and I've been on a roll the last 2 weeks - but there's no way with the temps/wind chills we're having even turning on the heater out there is gonna do enough to work on the car. Oh well, this weekend slips by ... boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
