Oh that's what he meant by that? Jesses christ.
Alright then. Parts finally came in today. Supposed to here yesterday and that p iss es me off.
I went ahead and fixed all the burned electrical wires and secured them up out of the way. Nothing touching the headers now.
Soon as I get this thing back together and crank it.... if it starts... and if it still makes that clicking clacking sound, I'll go ahead and check for loose rockers.
I know it's no excuse and probably no one cares, but the channels are constantly changing in my head. It's a lot like holding down the button on a TV remote. Makes for getting bored very easily and difficulty paying attention to mostly everything. Also makes reading somewhat of a challenge. I believe it's called ADHD.
I don't know so much about rushing headlong into danger, though.
Feel better now, Schurkey?
Dude, I can be an ass, I'll give you that. Adhd, i know how difficult that can be, I'll give you that, Asking for advice then ignoring it, doing the exact opposite, or being argumentative about it is a different disorder I have also dealt with, with others. Clinical terminology escapes me at the moment. Myself and my ex were part of a respite program in MD. We watched Autistic, Asbergers, ADHD children one weekend a month to give families a break. Been around way worse and there was some training I had to participate in to have the kids in our house. All through this whole endeavor of yours I've said multiple times in one way or another to slow down, be patient, pay attention to what's being said, this is where being impatient is a gotcha, etc. I have to agree with Schurkey, a mentor, a mentor is not someone immature or irresponsible, a mentor guides you and makes sure you're making the right steps in the right order. Again, you're argumentative. Many of us here have tried to help you, you disappear and come back later "I did xyz instead of suggested abc and now it's not working." When I started working on engines we didn't have the internet, machine shops and engine builders wouldn't tell you anything. Figuring stuff out on our own after it blew up was normal. It's a different world now, use it to your advantage. If I told you I never had a cam wipe out buring break in I'd be lying. Been there done that, but nobody can save you from yourself if you don't ask or don't disclose what your doing, what your next step is going to be, or have an issue with someone being authoritative.
The internet, this site, are invaluable tools but you have to be receptive to and use the information. Not every one is going to spoon feed it delicately.
