Post by somethingbroke »

What up....I just graduated tech and Im going to be living in the Burg for a while. I drive the red TJ that used to have those clownshoe thornturds the previous owner put on. Ive hit bobcat a couple of time but Ive just recently got my rig up and running. For the past couple of years Ive been plagued with mechanical and financial issues that have kept me off the trail and I finally got my ride running somewhat and ready to wheel.

If anybody needs someone to help them wrench Im usually free before or after work. Ive replaced/repaired alot of different stuff on various rigs before but my behind the wheel time is lacking.

they are sunday nights at about 7...but only when school is in session AFAIK...

and i say 'about 7' because sometimes the officers go on trips to charlotte and show up at 8:30 :flipoff2:

Hey Jim, Did you ever figure out what was wrong with your jeep?

yup....somehow I pulled the wire leads that run into/power the fuel pump off the terminals. Must have been some ginormous rock....yea right

After I found out that there was no fuel pressure at the rail at my aprtment I got a buddy to get me a free tow to auto repair(AAA kicks ass). I had to get it fixed immediately cause I have to drive to MD this weekend....while trying to get to the pump on the lift they found the fuel pump terminal ripped off. We would have never found it on the trail being that it was on top of the tank. All in all it was a cheaper fix than what I thought it was gunna be.

Welcome man. Glad to hear that any problems were fixed on the Jeep.

And not all officers are late to meetings :flipoff2:

But yes, Sunday at 7pm is when we usually have our meetings, on the 1st and 3rd weekends of the month. I will make another post about when will have the first one and if yall want to change it from Sunday to another day.
