Hi Darlin’,
After a reasonable night sleep, albeit a slow start, I spent awhile dealing with a shower house problem. One of the showers suddenly seems to have popped its cork and was running full bore, with hot water streaming out of it. I had to shut down the entire shower house, since the individual showers don’t have shutoff valves yet. Once that was dealt with, and chores were done, eventually met two of the brothers at my Buick to try to get it started, and it surprisingly actually started once, but it died as soon as I put it in gear, so we ended up towing it back to camp, with no incidents, thank goodness. We did some diagnoses and testing using the shop manual that I’m so glad we got on the Buick so many years ago, and determined what the probably causes are for it’s non-starting situation, i.e. the ignition module, possibly the camshaft sensor, and just for good measure, a set of spark plug wires. Hopefully, that will be Panther back on the road! Then we headed to brother Glenn’s new house so Karl could see it, then we were all set to head out to his condo on the beach when there was a change of plan, and everyone headed to their respective homes instead, which was just as well, as I’m feeling a bit sore, tired and achy for some reason. Probably need a day off, feels like I haven’t had one it awhile. Settled down for the evening, now I’m ready for shower and bed. Good night, sweetie! Love you!
