How about that baby formula crisis?

Wait... do we have a thread for that?

Baby formula crisis?

As long as there isn't a root beer crisis I'll be alright.

Just the right size to touch the ground.
Haven't done anything to my Ranger in 8 months or so. It's still sitting there in the yard with the 4 brand new tires, all the new gauges and everything else I put on it right before the SOHC took a dump.

What was the verdict?

If you said it... I totally missed it.

I haven't torn into it yet. My guesses are broken timing chain or broken camshaft. There's noise in the passenger side valve train from something.

That's okay. You can take the day off and post here tomorrow.

I didn’t actually do anything to any RBVs here today other than go in the cab of the green Ranger in search of some paracord. No luck though. Not sure where I stashed it.

On a side note, gas here was $4.69 here yesterday when I filled the F-150… at $147 and change…

I worked on the riding mower today, welded up the deck lift arm things at lunch today (they were bent/broken so instead of buying new weak ones I just fixed and beefed up the originals...) then pulled the deck the rest of the way to sharpen the blades, found one blade upside down (some un named person wasn't paying attention a couple years ago?) and cleaned up all the caked on grass then put it on. I ignored the silver dollar sized hole in the deck for now, it'll be there later... Now it lifts higher, ought to mow much more even...
