Its about 1/2-40 minute drive from here into Oregon. A handful of years ago the North Fork of the Walla Walla River flooded. I knew it screwed up the hiking trail but no idea how bad. Well let’s just say the road to drive in washed out about 1/2 mile to where you park and the restrooms are. In order to get to the trail we hade so walk on a narrow edge of jagged rocks right next to a raging section of the river. No wonder there was nobody around. LOL Of course we could leave Tony and Elmer behind. These two little fellas always love a good adventure hike. Not sure exactly how long this trail is but we did about a 5 mile round trip. In the past we have done much longer but with lack of people the trail is getting a little over grown and we started seeing bear turds. The constant human traffic on the trail kept the bears and cougars away. We decided it was a long enough hik...

You can’t go there without checking out the lawn mower drag races!! I was laughing the whole time! These lawn mowers haul ass!! They said the record was 70mph in 100 feet. That is quick!! A husband and wife were racing each other. Before each time they raced, they blew each other a kiss. How cool!! Hope you all enjoy a little redneck fun!!

Sorry to leave you all hanging with Project Subi… Good news is the project is complete and the car is running like a champ. My Son loves it and is already having some teenage fun with it. I’m considering doing another Subaru engine swap in the future. I see a lot of them with blown up engines for real cheap. Instead I picked up another car from my brother. A 2006 Mazda 3 with a 40k mile engine for $500. My silly brother had the engine put in then he never drove it. I put some tires, shocks, brake pads and brake rotors on it and it’s been running like a champ. Then she started acting up a bit. I’m beginning to wonder if this was a good idea. I’m pretty sure they are simple fixes so I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Just a little update since I have been gone a while. Stay Blessed Hivers!!

A Father & Son engine swap project on a 2006 Subaru Outback. I tore one engine apart and my son tore the other apart. Parts from the old engine need to go on the new and there is a lot of cleanup. I found out one thing… my Son and I are really good at making a mess. We really wanted to know what happened to the old engine. It was knocking really back and would barely stay running. Welp… after pulling the heads off we found the issue. Chunks missing from the top of the 2 pistons on one side of the engine. CRAZY!! I wonder what caused that?? The new engine is getting a little overhaul before we put it in the car. Headgaskets are the main thing on these Subarus. I went with the Six Star head gaskets because I heard they are the best ones. Timing belt and pulleys, waterpump, spark plugs & wires, valve cover gaskets and intake and exhaust gaskets are getting done too. With a new clutch and flywheel, this 60k mile e...

A couple broken sensors, plugs, but a broken valve cover and camshaft cap plate left me without a smile on my face. The newer engine is going to get a good once over. The new clutch came in along with head gaskets, head bolts, waterpump, and timing kit. The rest of the parts should be in early next week. Stay tuned to Project Subi as we make an absolute mess tearing these engines apart. music from Apple iMovie Darkslide by BT Sat, 10 Feb 2024 17:02:27 +0000 https://ipfs-3speak.b-cdn.net/ipfs/QmcggEXordNnpc49abzUgedrxpYKkS29ro12uggkUms75D https://ipfs-3speak.b-cdn.net/ipfs/QmRbgK6gQFqWajRjgWcBFNiZs8vtvLEvaRk7jiYKjvNrB8 https://3speak.tv/watch?v=splatts/hoqzuoohcw A few days ago we had some wire break and hit the ground in 2 separate places. After getting the wire pulled back up and reconnected we noticed a few insulators had been tracking. This means that the insulators were failing and the electricity was starting to burn the wood pole. So while I was replacing the insulators my coworker decided to get a little workout in. Plus keep warm. That breeze coming off the Columbia River was a bit nippy!!

The farmer found out the hard way when the spray arm smashed into a power pole tearing it down and cause some serious damage to the spray rig. This also caused a power outage that effected over a dozen people. After clearing the destroyed pole out of the way, we dug a new hole with the Line Truck. Then I hopped into the bucket to hold the conductors out of the way to make setting the new pole a routine task. While up in the air I can’t help but have a look around… Harvested wheat fields as far as the eye can see.

Fast forward to a couple weeks ago an I show up and 2 of rhe 3 fuses are blown. Welp, time to isolate the transformers and test the cable using a 1 amp fuse. As you can see I’m using an extendable hotstick to do this from the ground. Some of these explosions can get pretty violent. I’ve heard of the fuse holder exploding and a chunk of fiberglass got stuck in a guys hand…. Not Fun!! That first fuse blew so I know it’s got a bad spot in it. And wouldn’t you know it… the other one blew too. Looks like we have a fun evening ahead of us locating a bad spot and repairing it.
