3 was at 90, 4 was at 60. We just pulled him from there and broke him down. Checked the heads, they look good. We are gonna get a new set of rings.

Put A trailer hitch on the Bug  ^banana=




Pulled the front bumper for Cali Bumpers "Thanks Mug Man" 11&*



Relocated the horn to out side the bug instead of the trunk. abike-

Started the bus after breaking down. Ran low on oil... smoke, etc.

Runs as crappy as it did when it started pooping out on the way to Firefly. I was told I'd be ok.

Misfiring, Backfiring.

(Yes I am aware I have an exhaust leak)

This was Tuesday night and yesterday, not today .

 I used my Bus and 110 inverter in it to power my sump pump while I did not have power at my house.  This way I knew it would run regardless of the generator.
