ZJ Down
« on: April 08, 2008, 02:03:10 PM »
Well took the ZJ up to the hobby shop last night due to some problems Ive been having and we came to the conclusion that I have blown a head gasket so the jeep will be up there for awhile being worked on when I have free time. 

I always appriciate help so let me know when you have some free time.  Id love company completing this task....
I do cheeks for free just ask...

Ill be picking up the gaskets today.  I bought a whole upper engine kit so there will be lots of cleaning and so on to make sure the job is done right.  Ill make phone calls when I get down to working on it.  Thanks guys.

Well got into the jeep pretty good today but had to head home for the wife and baby.  She fell while at the park and needed to head into the hospital for some monitoring for a few hours.  She is ok and the baby is ok the doctors just wanted to take a look for a few hours.  But I had to head home around 1630 to watch the boy.  So Ill be back at it in the morning.  Got down to the head today so work is going smooth.  Ill be up their again in the morning and could use some help tomorrow.  So if you have free time stop by and give me a hand.

Sorry I didn't make it man. I was the DCPO  for Therrien until 1530. I'll try to make it tomorrow, but Amy has to leave at 1545, so I'll try to make it an early day, but you know how that is for me.
