This spring has been epic wet here.
No row crops have been planted except
a little corn two or three weeks before
easter. We had rain at least once a day for six days a week for well over a month.
after today no rain for the remainder of the week.

I should know better but I thought I had it tight enuff.

Second time I have encountered this:

Bosch plug both times. Center electrode loose.

Not buying Bosch in the future.
Wow I never would've expected that! Now I had a champion that I blew the electrode complete out of on my 346xp one time, but then again, that didn't surprise me much lol!

Came home today to find a box on the front porch. With my name on it. ??????
Brought it inside, opened it up. An old Homelite EZ. (The original EZ). Now I remember! About 1 1/2 years ago, I was trading some saws with a young member. He sent me an old Homelite (don't remember what it was, I think it got traded away at Matt's last November.) I sent him a couple of parts carcasses and kept waiting for the other saw. Enough time went by and I decided he forgot about the deal or something.
I guess he didn't forget, cause I've got it now. Ill see about pics a little later.

I wish I could have contributed to that effort and then been able to see that in person... I bet that made Jim's day and probably made him a bit sad too, if I know his personality at all.
I talked to him last night. Said he didn't know whether to b--ch or cry. :laugh: I said a LOT of folks respect him and like (and care about ) him. Jim has done his duty for king and country. I've sat and talked with him at gtg's and on the phone at home. In my book, a set of tires is a small price to pay for the friendship he has given.

VERY well put. That right there was the inspiration to do what we did. And to the donors I thank you!
