I did manage to get it running...of sorts , after it went wrong just to see what,  if anything has broken, but at this point, until I take it apart,  its just a typical blown  head gasket. I can't hear anything major broken.  I've already made my 'shopping list' of parts I need . Theres a supplier of ag  & tractor parts a few hours away.  I'm going to replace a whole bunch of parts at the same time  while I have in bits and while I have the chance.  A full 'top end' rebuild almost. 

 Thats awsome !!! I've been  a ' Trekky' since I was a kid, ( baring my inner most here :blush:) .  Watched every episode of the OS  after school (  ...that and Gilligans Island  and I Dream Of Jeanie...lol  :)

I was mesmerised by all the flashing lights & buttons , and 'warp speed' and the ' transporter '  . I have every DVD of  the OS + movies , TNG+ movies , & Voyager . Still watch them these days. 

In a month or so, it'll start to get  hot down here, thats why I've been getting all my jobs done early....until ...??  I hope to get it fixed in a week or so .. thats the plan anyway and I'm sticking to it ...fingers crossed... :rofl: 

take care

lol me too sad thing dad never met him he did all his work at a studio somewhere never set foot out here during the filming. OH yea love Star trek, We still watch it some channels run episodes back to back. Loved Gilligan too, Gilligan had it made man what was he thinking all those years lol.

 A Keeper pic of your mom! That will make a fine memory lol. I'll bet she enjoyed every minute of it.

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

I'm going do a decent pic  of it and frame it  and give it to her for Christmas :yes: 

Here ya go friend , some nice lamb chops on my very well seasoned   " antique"  barby , finished with a nice honey BBQ marinade,  and served with honey carrots & corn on the cob  ...and a glass of white wine  :)  Best damn barby I ever bought. Got it back in the mid 90's . Its sure  showing its age  these days , but the food tastes great :thumbsup:

 Its has  heavy cast iron burners , not the s/steel ,  like most newies  have .  Can't find cast iron burners anywhere.  

You're cooling down &  we're warming up and its'  BBQ , weber, & spit roast season'   for us.

Quite a yummy breakfast that would be eh? Breakfast of champions :thumbsup:

 

It lives yeyyyy , after 11 months  !!! :banana:

I took the plunge this afternoon  and got my ol Fordson going again . About an hour of fiddling about cleaning  the fuel tank , and getting the fuel  line sorted, , filled the rad up  with water, crossed my heart & said a lil' prayer....it came to life  after a few turns!!!  I gave it a kiss, ssshh...  don't tell anyone, people might think  I'm going a bit strange , lol.  Drove it around, a  minor hiccup, but otherwise great, it ran sweet !!  Not an ounce of smoke coming from that exhaust .  Next, oil change,  new plugs & exhaust pipe  . Never did like that ' lump'  :) :)

After a few hiccups, it went great   :) Nearly completed all my annual property  chores/ maintenance . Fire breaks are compulsory  here in Oz  . Once they're all done I can focus on getting my lil' Grey Fergie sorted. Pick up parts Wed. 

Here ya go friend. Some nice  yummy cray fish tails  with a  creamy cheese sauce with a lil'  cracked pepper  , garnished with fresh home grown Parsley & Marjoram ,   and,  juicy sweet prawns ( shrimp)  with  some lemon on the side. Washed down with a nice white wine .  Damn delish , and filling it so was too  :thumbsup: 

The cray tails come from a friend that has an  in-law that is  a cray fisherman up north.  So good to have friends like that :)

I'm doing my get ready for winter chores lol. getting my old truck and camper ready for 10 days in the mountains hunting elk. gotta till the garden and winterize everything, fix a couple of storm windows. I have no idea how much gas is going to cost us this year so I'm worried about that a bit. 

Dang you set a fine plate, that looks so good. my brother is bringing in a deer today for me, it will make some awesome sausage for the winter, and some nice leather lol.

Man, I so totally envy that ,  being  in Mother Nature, having a cook up  around the camp  fire ,  hope all goes well  :).  Days are getting warmer, Summer is on its way, seems to get earlier each year I'm sure.  All my annual chores are almost done, just one little bit to do , then I can have a play with my 'toys' .

i cant wait to tell you the truth I need some quiet time under the stars, a nice hot fire and a cold beer all at the same time. I made up some hunting gear to show off while visiting friends up there, we call it camp hopping, stop by and have a beer and BS a bit. Some of them i only see out there once a year lol but its a lot of fun. My winter chores are starting, fix  some storm windows till in all the rabbit fertilizer, get the vehicles ready and fix up the green house roof. Jeez maybe I'll just stay in the mountains lol.

Thats something I can  really relate to . The ' elderlys ' can be hard work .  Theres been many  times I just wanted to p*ss off in the car for some time out on my own in the bush, and spend some quality  time under the stars .  For me , its like pressing a ' reset' button .
