Good morning daily

[supersparky]

Good morning everyone. We had a good run home yesty. Lucky we weren't heading north. There was a fire on the west side of highway. Traffic was banked back at least 10 km's.
We'll be off to the airport shortly. Terrie is flying down to Albury, then travelling across to Mulwala, back to her mum's. She has a good dose of that virus, but not quite good enough to warrant a hospital stay yet. Hopefully she can get her back on track.
Safe travels everbody. Have a top day.

Good morning 19c, N/W breeze 26c predicted beautiful sunshine for the last scheduled pennant games both our teams are playing at home today, they’ll have wash out games to play for the next couple of weeks, looking forward to getting back to bowls.

So many viruses still circulating hope your neighbour Bernie & Terrie’s mum get better soon.

I’m on pick up duty this week our eldest g’son still at school is in year 11, received a call y’day exams finished can you pick me up Nana, only one today so he’ll be home even earlier, can’t believe how quickly the years have passed he’ll be 17 in December.

I like toast & peanut butter for breakfast sometimes Bernie bacon & eggs definitely better. Carol is on a winning streak better buy a lottery ticket Bernie.

Morning all.

Catching up with an old mate from home today.

Can't stop and relax. He wanted to drive me around to see the sights. Took a lot of convincing to just have a sit down and a good chin wag. He'd be a wreck at Taggerty.

I've started removing the starter motor...I have all the nut's off...BUT...I can't get it passed all the crap in the engine bay...and I've run out of swear words..it would be more than 60 years ago since I removed one...but at least back then there wasn't anything in the way
Bernie.

Thats a b...y nuisance Bernie. I can't help you with how to get it out, but there must be something on YouTube.
I can help you out with swear words in other languages though.
I used to be multi cultural years ago.

Can you remove the black end cap from the solenoid, it will probably require removing the lock nuts on the terminal bolts and pushing them through the black plastic cap to get the actual motor wire off the bolt.

When you get it off, you will see the two contact pads I was talking about before, a search on the interweb should find these for you, much cheaper than a replacement starter motor ..... and this one knows the way back into where it was, that will make the job easier as well
