Dove into this job elbows deep Friday 6-10-22...and Saturday morning around 9:30 EST I got a piece of debris in my right eye and ended up messing up the entire day in the local ER...then Sunday a trip 1.5 hrs north to the better hospital (Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical center in Hanover, NH,) to have an opthalmologist take a better look at things. Apparently they swiped the piece out of the eye on Saturday night at the local ER, but it was irritated and still felt like something was lodged in there. What a wasted weekend. But...back at it again Monday feeling fine.
Anyways, resealing the front cover on this 3406B engine. It was dribbling enough oil to make a daily mess, and eventually the long arm of the law was going to have a problem with excessive oil leakage...so here I am. I don't want to displeasure the authorities...that wouldn't be nice.
Quite a little job to say the least. But while I'm in here I'm flushing the radiator, changing belts and hoses, and new hood hinge bushings, whatever else I see that needs freshening up. The 'ol gal works hard, and so you need to return the favor with a little TLC now and again, if you're serious about the game.
