Don't things come in threes ? Why is that ?
First there was (is) my bike frame. I know, that was a while ago but since it's not solved yet, I'll count that. Now in quick succession we have two more. I need to count the bike so that there isn't something else about due.
I went to start my chainsaw yesterday and no-go. Further research / dismantle / testing and it needs a new ignition module which is an easy part to replace ... once you have a replacement. The trouble is that the saw that I bought in 2014 has had its ignition system upgraded. The MS362 is now MS362C. The new module is chip driven yadda yadda yadda and I'm having a hard time tracking down a replacement. There's one in Canada with Stihl somewhere out west. Great. It's not cheap either, like 15-20% of the cost of a new saw. Great again. I also found one online in the US and there are clones coming from China, mailed from China. Since those are 1/5 of the cost of the Stihl version, I've placed an order. I do not have a lot to lose.
Sandy's heading to see Joyce and have her teeth cleaned. Well ... she didn't get out of the driveway. Click, click, click. I figured that it was the battery but no. Click, click, click. The battery is just about to die but even with a new one with jumpers and/or jumped from the X5, click, click, click. It looks like the car needs a new solenoid or starter. That may be the cheapest part of getting it fixed. Towing to Arnstein will be just as expensive. I've got a call into Booth. Daryl has retired.
So it's lucky that Kim has a car. I don't. I do have a bike.
Onward or is that stayward.
