The Conversation Pit This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it!

Default Why you don't keep running an engine when you hear a noise!

I rebuilt the transmission in this tractor for a friend of mine last winter, now he called me up this fall saying the engine was making noise and then wouldn't turn over any more. So I went and tore into it last week - turns out number six exhaust valve broke and rattled around for a while. Just thought ya'll might like to see pictures of the damage. Happy Thanksgiving!

Ugly! At least it wasn't the transmission. (It can be hard to convince someone that when you're touched something that later breaks that it wasn't your fault.)
