5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 7

[scuba diver]

I don't remember the best time from my past research. I do remember that they recommend to time dives with the coral spawning (Hey, I said spawning again.... ) It's suppose to be pretty amazing!!

Or how about this:

Every year from December to early April, hundreds of scalloped hammerhead sharks (Sphyrna lewini) leave the cold inshore waters to feed in the warmer Gulf Stream eddies that wash over the East and West Flower Garden Banks. It's not unusual to see dozens of dorsal fins slicing the surface as you make your giant stride entry. Spotted eagle rays (Aetobatus narinari) also congregate at these reefs during the winter months, cruising through in squadrons of a half dozen or more.

Sometimes it's the journey and NOT the destination that's important!!

I know, but I really wanted the Jeep fixed.

 

[scuba diver]

Oh boy, a new game!!!


I think gaRry is suggesting that you should not have put chocolate chip cookies in the jeep in place of oil........ But that is a guess!! We need a gaRry translator!!

That would be Stacey. Oh Stacey, help us out here.

 

[WVMD]

Stacey, I need a little help here. What is he saying?

Normally I can figure it out, but on this one I have no clue.

Translation - Did you remember to put oil back in it - if not garRy will come down and add some for you......


I'm not Stacey - But I speak garRy too....

[WVMD]

btw - I was going to ask you the same thing - but he beat me to it.......

So I finally get home to answer, and no one is here!Jay should be walking in any minute. After the baseball pictures, the coaches had a game against eachother, and they needed some Dads to fill the teams, so Jay played and Jordan and I went to watch. And laugh. Too funny watching those guys who think they're such jocks stumble around.

Jay did a great job of embarrassing Jared, and I'm proud. He played well...that wasn't the embarrassing part. He wore his Goofy hat. Will post a picture after a while.

Going to read and catch up till Jay gets home.

I have been using print shop delux to make magnets and also transfers.
I did the transfers for the caps, now just need to iron them on which could happen in the next couple of months.
Of course I have a great excuse, the kids don't know so I have to do everything on the sly and when they are not around!!!

 

[itdjbw]

Is anyone around??

Susan, where in GA are you from??
We are in Sandy Springs.

Julia,

I believe Susan lives in NorthEast Cobb. Her son goes to Lassiter H.S. (2 of my children graduated from Lassiter )

Speaking of Lassiter: Susan, we heard on the news last night that another Lassiter teen was critically injured in a crash on Pete Shaw Road. Does your son know this boy (who's name also happens to be Chris)? So sad.

I heard that on the news cause I asked Aubrey if it was near his house he is building - really sad!!

 

[itdjbw]

Is this a TOP???

 

[itdjbw]

Oh well I guess I better go, DH is going to play racquet ball at 5am so I will have to get the kids up and take them to school which is what he normally does.

Bummer!! As you know, oil pressure comes from the oil being pumped through the engine with tight tolerances. Excessive clearances elsewhere in the engine can also reduce oil pressure. This includes wear in the lifter bores, excessive clearances between the camshaft journals and cam bearings, and excessive end play in the cam. Of course, any cracks in the oil galleys, leaking galley plugs, or leakage between the oil pump and block will also reduce pressure.

If you haven't already, install a mechanical gauge at the sensor oil pressure switch port and see if you register any pressure there as a next step. Did it just go flat or did the engine drop pressure for awhile?

I was going to say that!

Jay says "Cracked oil pressure sending unit" or...."Are you 100% sure you installed the pump correctly"
And...it takes some work, but you could possibly by-pass the sensor altogether and run a line from the tank to the gauge, which in the long run, would be a lot better...more reliable.
My thought was "Is the gauge functioning properly?"

Did you check for leaks? (duh....I'm certain you did)

Like Kevin said back there...there are so many variables. Jay said the port where you install the sensor could have been clogged, too.

He's still sitting there thinking about it, he keeps turning around and saying "Or...it could be...." So we know how you feel....you want it solved.

Matt and I changed the oil pump and oil sensor on his Jeep this weekend because 0 oil pressure. Still no oil pressure.

Who can come over an fix it for me?

Stacey, after hearing about your family meeting today I decided to have one during dinner and set a few ground rules around here - DD was not happy, she was grounded on Friday night and then went running around the neighbourhood with her friend so is now grounded for another week along with her friend who has to be home at 5.30pm and was late and my DD who has to be home at 6pm got home at 7pm - Aubrey was furious which very seldom happens.

 

[itdjbw]

Nite nite all!!!

I don't know about you, but I have spent far too much time worrying about my kids emotional well-being, worrying that they will miss out on sports, dance, etc....and I'm fed up because they have figured me out and taken advantage.
So....no more Mister Nice Guy.

Laura and Julia,

I hadn't heard about the accident. I just asked my son, he hadn't either. I looked for information on WSB but couldn't find anything. Do you have any other information?
