I am starting to think that I may have an obsession with fixing things. Maybe I should be throwing them out and buying new instead of repairing. Yesterday I put new fuel lines in my string trimmer, and it ran. I went to use it today, but it wouldn't start because the primer bulb ruptured. I have a new one of those on order now along with a few related parts. Parts are so easy to get on line. Last fall my forty year old Kuhn tedder jumped time. I couldn't find why this spring so I put it back together, and used it, but also started the process to rebuild my parts unit which turned out to be much better than the one that I have been using. It got all new bearings, then mission started creeping pretty bad and it got a thorough clean up, prime and paint. A few years ago my chainsaw wouldn't run so I ordered a replacement carburetor. My Ferris mower lost the belt that drives the blades. So I ordered a new one. Changing the belt was easy getting to it took a couple hours. My Ford Escape needed new flex lines for the front brakes so I replaced them along with the calipers. Since I was doing brakes I went at the F-350 because it had a pulse. That turned out to be just remove, disassemble, and lube except that one rotor needed turning. My biggest project is my 67 Datsun roadster which in Jan of 2015 was going to be just a quick prep and paint but turned into removal of everything except the suspension and rear axle. I didn't get to where I was actually starting to get closer to being done with it until ten months ago. A lt of my stuff is old and maybe it should be retired. I remember twenty years ago noticing that old people think that anything that they bought in the last twenty years is like new. I am thinking that that is me now.
