The Carlisle Curse #3

I call it #3 because I think that Driller started it with his idle problem.:D

Then Trixie continued it with her starter wire problem.

Now, I've got a bad wheel bearing.:frown:

It's not that big of a deal, but I'm behind in my Carlisle preparation. The car still needs to be cleaned and waxed.

The hardest part is going to be finding a new nut in stock.

I'd rate the difficulty of the repair, in the middle, between Trixie's and Driller's problems.

I'd rate the seriousnes of the problem as the worst though. I can't drive 8 hours with a bad wheel bearing.

But like Trixie and Driller, it's not going to stop me from going to Carlisle.:D
 
Yah, I can drive to Carlisle with the bad idle no problem.

Good luck Bill, I know you can do it! :)
 
The red Mark still needs a new return fuel line before I drive it a long distance. Actually I want to replace the main fuel line too.
 
'Morning bill. Wanted to give you a heads up on camping. Of Course, if you've left already, you'll find out when you get here. It appears that the camping area we'd discussed earlier is now closed. apparently they're building a new barracks or something. Directly across the street from that area, is a different field that allows camping. $30/night. We're in a blue and grey dome tent with a yellow stripe. at the very top of the hill. Wood Ticks are present in large numbers, but otherwise, all is good.

$30 a night ? Bill is not gonna like that ;)

I had a similiar problem 3 years ago ... IMRC controller went out on a fresh swapped cobra intake, and then the following year the idler pulley on a vortech setup went bad 2 hrs before departure. Luck I tell ya ;)
 
That's what I get for not reserving anything.:D
Thanks for the heads up Mike. I'll see you there.

I replaced the hub yesterday and I just washed my car. I'll be leaving in an hour or 2.

Yes, it looks like there is a Carlisle Curse Jeremi.:)
I feel bad you can't make it this year. Soccer=lame excuse.:D

Wood ticks? Good, I'll be hungry when I get there.
I hear they taste just like chicken.:D
