      I give it 18 months at that rate before you r3v your big toe with an exhaust manifold or P/S pump. I wear Redback Steeltoes in the shop, and have set a few engines on my feet by accident when the core guy is there for scrap metal. You really should't chance your feet. I'd suggest a short sleeve shirt w/shoes instead of a parka and sandals.

        Shift key failing you again?



        OP: Call tomorrow afternoon and I'll try and get you straightened out, I'm sure it's something simple I'm just not thinking of without the wiring diagrams in front of me.

                GL with the swap, I always wear sandals while im working.. But then again i have sasquach feet, I could drop a kennworth motor on them and i probably wouldint notice. Ive been pulling motors since i was 15, I guess ill learn when i loose a toe, untill then whatever
