    IF only we had a "badlands" section.

    That it does, I'm hoping its nothing too serious, but either way, I'll have a ton of problems down the road.

    I don't why it hit me the way it did, but I laughed my ass off when I read this post.

    Just struck me out of nowhere, I grew up in that area.....seen a lot of changes in that area over the years, more are coming too.

    The good news is that knee surgeries have come a long way. What used to require to zippers, a graft, 2 drain bags and a year of recover is now much simpler with quicker recovery. Doesn't decrease the pain any though.

    I had a really shitty day at work, carry over from yesterday......fucks a lot.


    Got the damn car running though.....no help from shitty diagrams and pinpoint tests from "up to date" All Data, AND the ford website system. Yeah, "do this, then do that".... NOT.

    FYI...anyone dealing with an E series Cutaway V-10 that cranks but does not start, with no codes....verify all your basic shit with fuses and relays first as usual, but when you get to verifying power and ground to the fuel tank sender/fuel pump.... the ground for the pump comes from a piece of shit *fuel control module*. Fifteen dollar part from a ford dealer....mounted on the left frame rail fore axle.

    This is why I'm not a mechanic.
    Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.

    Hey Otter.. how goes life? Belly, you wanna come over and diagnose my SBC? Or maybe you can help me find a 5spd TDI tranny for an 06 Jetta. Either task is stupid frustrating.
