cars and car parts

Ok.. the compresor arrived. Of course the gaskets did not.. they are crediting them. So, I got up early the get a haircut first thing, then was gonna go shopping.. so, after the hair cut, Revington would not start.. dead battery.. called L.. picked me up, went.home, took the battery out of the parts car, I had just charged it last week.. grabbed the jumper cables and wrenches..

Back to Revington, swap out the battery.. car started ok..

Got the mail, got gas, went grocery shopping.. went home..

It looked like rain, I dont have the compressor gasket.. put the old battery on the charger.. it showed 12.8v... I checked Revingtons battery.. it was 11.9v and started the car it went to 14v. I figure that means its charging...so I cleaned up the leaves.. a few hours of that..changed clothes and went down the Cape with L and J. .for dinner..

I figure, if I dont replace the condensor, all I need is the o rings for  the compressor.. I should be able to find that locally.. maybe I can install the compressor and reassemble the car..Sunday.. and maybe get it over to the shop to get the AC recharged Monday?? 

..By the way, Revington decided the pop up an engine code and the lights were pulsing.. so we took Pearl..

.. I will have to read the code..I think it was a low power engine misfire.. needs to be driven to charge up the replacement battery.. 

  I hope....

So, tomorrow will be a long busy day..hopefully productive.. I got to get one of these running well enough to get to work on Tuesday...

..

I may need to skip walking with M on Monday..

I am down to 171..

Im happy about that.. 

..

Finances are tight.. had to borrow from the hide...to pay the mortgage..and paid a couple partials..  but will get this past week pay next Friday.. and I have 'radio' cash I could deposit..if I must..

November is not starting well monetarily...

I hope I can recover.. soon.. December is coming and I am hoping to take some time off next year.. if I can...

But, this year..does not seem to be my year..
