Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild

I never noticed it till Bou mentioned it, and then I zoomed the pic way-up ! Course with old-age my eyesight isn't what it used to be, even with glasses, when I was young, I was able to easily see a pimple on a gnats arse ! .. :laughing:..:laughing:

I think Boux got him a scratch and sniff monitor.............

Meeester Goooomba ......
I got to thinkin about your cold Arthritic hands out on that FREEZING boat, I remembered a week I was stationed in Nebraska, ( in the AF ) was 25 below (chill-factor) and we had to change an engine on a transient bird, they brought it in the hanger where we had heaters (lots of em) going but still it was like zero cause the doors were always opening & closing, my hands were icicles, ya had to take off your gloves (only for a few min. at a time) so you could reach into some really %$#@&%$$#! tight places, I was removing a hydraulic line that leaked all down my parka sleeve to my armpit WOW that was equivalent to something like gettin the head of your weiner hit by 440V. , had to run over to my area and get a change of clothes and then supply-point for an exchange parka, my hands after all these years are FINALLY beginning to thaw out !! we didn't have great gloves back then, ( a wool insert under a leather shell ) anyway I figured I'd try to find ya some gloves to keep your digits from from frost-bite, mind ya, you have to PAY $$$$ for the good stuff but on that day, I woulda paid triple for a pair of good gloves ..... I was gonna send this info in a PM or email but I figured maybe some of our Yankee friends could be interested in this as well...... just remember to remove gloves BEFORE going to pee .. :laughing:..:laughing:
