    Condolences for your losses. Too many, too close together. Hang in there.

    A wrecker dumping it in the driveway would be my route!

    We had mentioned that too. It might be an option.

    Do it! Sounds like Dear old dad has been nice about it long enough. More than half a decade. Time for son to man up so you don’t get hurt over the winter.

    Went out with the hatchet yesterday and cut up some small tree branches from the storm for kindling. I’ll probably use a lot in the beginning of shoulder season as I’ll be doing a lot of start and shut downs until it gets real cold. Wish I had some pine this year for shoulder season.

    My wife and I are going to deliver the ultimatum that it goes in two weeks or I’m calling the junk yard to pick it up. Looking around I’m really needing the space for other things too.

    Depending on the model, it might be fairly easy to swap two of the injectors...see if the problem follows the injector...

    I feel like it’s a compression issue at this point.

    Hope it’s not a bent valve that caused the mis. :confused:

    That is bad. Bent or stuck valve? No matter, it’s definitely serious.

    Stuck exhaust valve did that to me in an ‘86 CRX. Marvel Mystery oil took care of it.

    On any cylinder? If just that one it could be a tight valve? Depending on model of course...not that many are adjustable any more...
