Re: We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... This is how my luck has been. Been running fine until this morning. On my way to work. Believe it's valvetrain related. Possibly a flat cam with lifters smacking. or broken push rod/rocker. Of course it's on the driver side. I have to remove the master cylinder to get to the valve cover.

Re: We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... That valve tip may be too worn and it causes the rocker rails to push down on the retainer.

Re: We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... Only found 1 side of the keeper.
Valve tip looks good with no marks. Valve is stuck. Cant pull it up or turn it. So that means the piston in that hole is done for. _________________ Rob 74 Ranger EFI351w, 4r70w, ARB 5.13 9in, ARB 5.13D44, and a bunch of other goodies.

Re: We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... Long blocks are heavy. And 351s even more so. Fingers are squishy, made of meat and full of liquid.

Re: We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... Ouch! Hope you're alright! When I was 8-9 I was helping my dad load a truck transmission into the back of a box truck. He didn't actually know I was helping and when they let the pallet down, my middle finger was under it. Squish! Fingernail only holding on my a thread. Some stitches and a few weeks and it was better. Still have a funny shaped finger.

Re: We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... If ever again I see the man who conducted my home inspection before I purchased it, I'll punch him in his face. And if he's lucky, that's all that will happen.

Re: We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... So sorry. Home repairs are not fun to deal with when you're just trying to sell it.

We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... New to me set of wheels turned out to be three of one brand and one of another. Enough of a difference to not pass scrutiny, but close enough to pass casual observation.
Would have been nice if the seller had mentioned that. _________________ Stroppe'd 1972 Sport, 302, 3 speed with old school Duff floor shifter, T shift Dana 20 with JB Fab twin stick, 4.11 gears with Trac-loc, Lincoln hydroboost, Chevy disc conversion, WH gas lift gate shock kit, 33" Duratrac tires on slots and about 2.5" of lift, Stroppe installed: bumper braces, dual shocks on all four corners, GM power steering, trans cooler mount, auto shift column, rollbar.

Re: We need a "You know what sux?" thread.... Driving 10 hours to put a load of stuff in storage only to find out management has locked your storage unit. And then to find out the office doesn't open until Tuesday.
