Needed a bearing for the combine last night. By the time I got home Napa was closed so I had to go to O'Reily's. I needed a standard 1" flange type excentric lock sealed bearing. Probably the most common bearing available, used on everything from lawn mowers to combines. So I go in and ask for one, the guy tinkles away on his puter and goes back and comes out with a bearing. I open the box and it's not 1", not sealed, not flange type, and not excentric lock, it's a wheel bearing. So he tinkles on his puter some more and clearly has no idea, so I googled it and first thing up is the National bearing number, the brand they sell, but third is the orielys number, so I show it to him. He tinkles some more and goes back and gets another, it's 1", sealed, excentric lock, but not flange type. I have to show him that the letters at the end of the number are wrong. So more tinkling and back he goes for another. This time it's 1", sealed, flange type, excentric lock, but the last letter is G for greasable, not S for sealed, so one more time tinkling and back for finally the right one. All this wouldn't be so frustrating considering it's O'Reily's except that the whole time I'm there both counter guys are ragging on Young folks for being so stupid and not able to learn how to work or do a good job. I could only shake my head and leave hoping I don't have to go back. Lol

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
