Sometimes I get to think'n bout my age. I know a few people younger than me that are older. An' I know a few people older than me that are younger. Ok....ya got that figger out??? Age ain't got nuttin to do with how old you are.
I'm a antique ya know. Motor don't run so good no more. Got dad gum leaks an' a squeek'n suspension. Rusty nuts an' bolts, paint job bout gone. Universal joints wore slap out.......you git the picture, right???
Last night I was sit'n here, motor start miss'n. One spark plug start foul'n out. Dash gauges show's high temp an' oil pressure was go'n out of sight. I've got a appointment in the morn'n......don't fail me now old antique car.
Then after I parked it in the garage for the night, the suspension began to give way. A flat tire an' one axle spring....it seem like it break right in two. Now I don't usually work on cars at 4 a clock in the morn'n, but I fixed that spring an' push that sucker right back in the garage. Sleep well old antique car.
There ain't many people in this world that would disassemble a brand new ignition switch.....just to take a look see. My brand new ignition switch has the same current carry'n capacity as the old green one. Ha, have ya ever try to put a brand new ignition switch back together? And it still work?
Here is the old green one.....all tored apart.
The brand new blue one has been put back together an' is sit'n here scream'n at me to install it. "You'll wait blue switch, I got me a golf'n ball to find in the woods".
Back to that engine misfire. I use a once a day additive in the crankcase....Lipitor. I Google, an' yes, Lipitor can add to the cause of a misfire. Ya see, last night, all was fine an' dandy....fire'n on all 8. I took my daily Lipitor, along with my other stuff. Shortly later, I was skip'n a beat, blood pressure increase an'....what ya call 'em?, hot flashes.....just a tad on the dizzy side. I will no longer add Lipitor to my crankcase. Just a test ya know.
Ok, this is it....I got things to do. Very important appointment at the golf'n place with OFM Barney. Yeeee Haaa, I can hardly wait.

That golf game may be just what the doctor ordered for helping keep things in good working order. Sure can't hurt, right?
ReplyDeleteGet out there and have too much fun with the OFM Barney. You be good as new, and some good ole Mexican food too.
ReplyDeleteYou put the wrong gasoline or oil additives (medicines) into Sally's motor and her motor would start missing, too.
ReplyDeleteSave me looking, what is lipitor? and, for what?
ReplyDeleteGoogle Mayo.com. and get any information you want about meds - the what fors and side effects, etc. Got no time to look for you. Sorry
DeleteIts a cholesterol medicine
Deletethx kristine
DeleteI think there are certain drugs, Lipitor being one of them, that can maybe help a few people, but heart & vascular doctors want to prescribe it across the board. I took it for a few weeks and my shoulder and arm hurt so bad I couldn't drive - and I was half way across the country. Enjoy the golf game. I think Barney's been practicing.
ReplyDeleteWell Billy Bob, I'm taking Crestor (Lipitor's cousin) and the only side effects I've had so far is a bit of cramping. But then again, I've had the odd Charlie Horse a long time before I ever started adding it to my crankcase.
ReplyDeleteThey say Metamusil will help lower cholesterol, but I'm plenty loose in my differential as it is.
Crown gears a tad worn, I'm guessin'.
o yeah i remember now!!! Causes loss of memory, all of em.
DeleteOn Lipitor, I froze right up in the middle of Wally World one day. Thought the ignition was shot. Told the mechanic and she up and stopped that Lipitor crap; put me on Crestor. So long as I took the Crestor, I was OK. Went two months without it and had a catastrophic engine failure. Had to have the cylinders rebored and a new sleeve in one. While it might be overkill for many, in my case it is a matter of life and death for this old beater. As always, your mileage may vary.
