    Glad you got it. Sorry. I should of been more specific in my wording to you so that you would not have wasted your time. Glad you got it coming . Should be there at the door thursday. Ordered so late in the day they use tuesday as a "processing" day. Amazon has gotten slack in the last few years. I use to have stuff next day sometimes(not all the time but I bet 40% came in 2-3 days) before I had prime. No with prime they make sure to take their two days. Guess maybe its just sales volume increased and the staff has not increased proportionitly?

    No rush, only got a couple truck loads left in my cutting season. Got a 10 pack of fuel filters coming from china so I will try that first.

    Carb kit came today, still waiting on fuel filters. Once I have them all in hand I will start rebuilding.

    Fuel filter is desperate process that should take 1 min or less. If u want you can go ahead with the carb . But I'm sure you know that.

    Yeah, plan is to change filter and line and try it before doing the carb.

    Oh gotcha. I would put money on it not being the filter. But good maintence to do it anyway.

    It takes some dirty fuel or tank or just lots of dust in the tank to stop one up.

    No but I dont live in a town with retail stores and I dont go to town. I work in the woods mostly.

    Well I guess there is an auto parts store here in town but everything is like 2-3x what it is elseware. I forget to have my wife get any as well.

    I need to go to town anyway. I need a compression fitting to fix a leaky water line for my fridge ive maker and I will get some then.

    Hey guys-- I tried the old silicone spray in the window track trick. Didn't have much luck until I sprayed the longer of the two vertical tracks, now it moves fairly well. Need to pick up some glue and glue it back into the track now!

    Silicone spray bought when we went to town yesterday to buy a pumpkin at those church pumpkin sales. Had to stop by advance auto to get some parts I had ordered. I bought the silicone spray. Just applies it and the window is twice as fast now if not 1.5x as fast and you can tell there is way less resistance.

    Glad that worked for you! Do this periodically and that window motor will last longer..

    I hope it lasts. Not that I can't do it but it looks overly long of a job. And the motor is expensive.

    Back on the rockauto thought. I need to get a few things for the k10. I was pricing advance and rock auto. Once I got a few items even with shipping RA is cheaper. Certain things I can't get cause no matter the combination I can't get a caliper for the ranger at the same warehouse. But I am getting Baldwin oil filters got $1.30 and belts for $1 pc valve for $0.50. ACdelco parts for cheaper with slipping than advance with $20 off coupons.
