So I wasn’t originally going to post but I decided to share the journey if this to FB Got this thing out of my neighbors yard for free , it’s been sitting for years but I just in a whim decided it couldn’t hurt to ask, I did and was told if I got it out the yard it was mine

Got it home and have began to assess the damage and needs to get it going under its own power , I’ll be doing most of the work myself with some little help here and there from knowledgeable friends

It’s already been quite the experience and I’ve only got a few hours of work into it

Not pictured is some work I did off camera , full tune up (plugs wires , filters, ignition coil , distributor cap and rotor.

It’s got spark, and air flow but I’m missing fuel as it will run on starter fluid for as long as you spray it but dies out as soon as fluid stops being sprayed. I’ve changed the fuel filters and checked for blockages in the fuel lines and have deduced that it was a pump issue , and boy was I correct

It has 3 fuel pumps on it , one in each tank, and one in line up near the motor.

Oddly enough the rear tank under the bed is brand new with a brand new pump and nether have ever seen a drop of gas in them I guess prior person to me got started on them and ended up not seeing it through

The main tank along the side rail however (pictured below) is absolutely nothing but trash at this point , luckily none of the fuel and crap in it ever made it into the lines past the filters so hopefully the injectors are still good enough to get it to idle

New main tank and fuel pump are otw but I fear even with them installed I have a power issue to the fuel system as a whole so that will be the next step

I’ll post updates regularly as progress is made

Stay tuned!!

Very cool. Is that a 1991?

I’m in Facebook jail for trying to sell projectiles on marketplace. Fuck ‘em.

(I don’t use that word in real life. That’s how pissed I am.) I got extra stuff from an estate sale I can’t use.

Reloading projectiles:

I have a little bit of .38

A good amount of .270

Lots of .303 and .338

And some 8mm

I also have a ton of shell holders if anyone is looking for some esoteric size, I probably got it.

Who’s into reloading? Who needs .38 cal projectiles?

I got a bunch of extra things I don’t need in a bulk sale.

Here’s four open, partial boxes. Four different brands. A total of 374 rounds.

See pictures.

$60 and I cover shipping in the CONUS.

I’ll take #Bitcoin, Venmo or Zelle.

What’s going on with the price of #bitcoin right now?

I want to swap the rest on my shitcoin hbar for #BTC.

It seems that I have less than enough for the Exodus app to do the swap.

Suggestions anyone?

I’m letting the eBay auction decide the price on the Dillon. But I do have other supplies such as .303 projectiles, .270 and .338 if you are interested.

Is anyone here on Nostr into reloading?

I’ve done it off and on for years. I just remodeled my work area and am getting new different gear.

I’m putting up a Dillon RL550 on eBay for sale.

I also have a bunch of projectiles for sale. Those won’t go on eBay. Follow me to see those posts later today.

Interesting.

I think two additional metrics to grade should be adoption and adoption rates. Obviously the USD would score high on adoption but probably not so high on adoption rate and some countries are moving away from the USD. And of course the opposite is true for BTC.

I have no idea about Monero.

This surge in $bitcoin is faster and happening sooner than I expected.

We hit an all time high overnight at over $70,000.
