Pulled the front cover off the motor and sure enough the cam gear is all chewed up. Time for a new set.

I'm trying my damndest to get all my parts reprimed, the final prime, but it's just me and my 4 year old daughter and 2 year old son and they are not cooperating today. Yesterday they were angels and were good enough to let me hit every goal, today they are heathen demon children hell bent on making me a day behind and I only have 2 days off this week to get it painted.
I'm about to put the cranky son down for a nap and hopefully that gives me enough time to shoot the paint. So far today all I was able to do it plastic off my garage. I need to prime early so I can block sand and then hit it with base and clear tonight and tomorrow. ![]()

Finally installed the Hurst LineLoc Ive had in my garage since October of last year...
Went good, took a while though. Had to bleed the brakes a whole lot, but they do feel good. All I gotta do is ground the little indicator light but other than that its fully functional.

Got everything primed, cleaning the gun took longer than the painting, god I hate cleaning paint guns.
When the kids go to bed I'll be block sanding to see what I am up against, go I hope I don't have to reprime everything. My new gun worked great though, a Kobalt HVLP that only operates at 29psi, way better than my last HVLP that operated at 43psi, my air compressor actually shut off a few times while I was painting. Now I need a good day tomorrow, no fisheyes, no streaking, no runs, please please, please let me not f**k up the base/clear, lol.

Re: What did you do to your GN/TR today?
I sold one of the GNs today.It was bitter/sweet watching it go.
Don't worry I'll never part with my other GN until I die and then my nephew can have it. ![]() |

Well, today I bought some engine oil. 5W-30 in particular along with some AC Delco spark plugs.
Tommorow going to wake up early and put in the new plugs and do the oil change. Going to end up having to get a jack that won't break the seals in itself in the first 2 seconds of putting it up. (The last one went that way, what a POS)
