Just the facts, ma'am
I almost exclusively cook dinner on the grill, all weather.
I like my dishes to look like this at the end of the day
I realize that a lot of what I do is less about a diet or anything, it's based upon simplicity and being a little lazy

That's what I picked up on there.
So far so good with the rider. 3rd season...strictly 0-E fuel and Sta-bil at the end of the season. Not to mention 30W mower oil (
)First start, easy-peasy. Single turn of the key.

I've been reading through Tom Hand's book, the ATSG manual and j-par's 904 rebuild thread... Be nice to get that thing cleaned up from the stupid harassment throughout, but OK.
I think I have all the "tools" minus the homemade stuff that he used. I think I'm going to go with the threaded rod mount onto the engine stand. Seems handy to be able to rotate it around as needed.

A newly divorced gal moved in across the road from me yrs ago. She bought a new push mower and seized it up first cutting. So any oil is better than no oil
You do have to be smarter than the dipstick! I can see "her' not knowing, but a guy building a stock car should have some idea of what oil to put in a lawn mower. I guess not.

Some of them guys I raced Karts with had their motors set up so loose, using a quart of oil on a race day was run of the mill

Within a degree or 2, it has been the same temp since 5 PM yesterday afternoon. Only sposed to go up about 10° from where it is now for our high today . No wind though, very unusual for this time of year.
Morning coffee is far more complex....I almost exclusively cook dinner on the grill, all weather.

You can definitely tell you take your coffee more seriously than dinner
Lol mine was a 2 cycle .Some of them guys I raced Karts with had their motors set up so loose, using a quart of oil on a race day was run of the mill
So, lots of oil talks today. I had a long talk with an oils engineer here at work. He even sits on the board at SAE. Seems the sludge and metallic garbage may have been because I used Shell Rotella T. Diesel oil has much more detergent and dispursents in it. Likely cleaned ut up. Filter is clean.

I see a lot of racers that use rotella i figured it was cause it's cheap... methanol guys that change oil every race though
And Rotella is supposed to have enough ZDDP for flat tappet cams to live.
Yikes I hope not!!!
They recently reduced it further.
