Well I have the pump/well problem fixed now. If I had thought about it I should have known the problem but I hate working in zap-u-tron stuff. Old pump is still good, payed $350 for a new 110V one that I'm taking back tomorrow. Rusted nuts I think said something about taping the wire to the pipe so as not to rub the wire and cause it to brake. Well yep you guessed it that was the problem. I drove 50 miles round trip at 6:30 tonight to go buy 110 feet of well pump wire to get things working again. Got the pump back down around 8:30 tonight and turned it on and no water. So now what in the world is wrong. Pulled the pipe loose going into the pressure tank and still no water. So figure I'd have to pull it again. Well it was 2 degrees out and the pipe had laid on the ground for 3 or 4 hours so figured I would let it sit for 30 minutes or so. Went out and turned on the breakers and had water so the problem was the pipe had ice some place in it. So now I get to take the new pump back but boy the cost of that 110 foot of wire sure hurt at $1.32 per foot but got a discount because of being a D.A.V. and them not having the 12-3 that I needed and had to get 12-4 and Lowes sold it to me for $0.98 a foot instead of the $1.32 per. Now I get to take a hot bath tonight and then drive 100 mile one way to the V.A. hospital tomorrow for a check up

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
