this will be a lot easier now that i might have the right marks....
man i feel stupid.

not stupid, ill-informed is more likely the case. If you were stupid you would have left it the first time

this is true,
but for you to drive from NC to NY to split a 12 pack with me...
even if its damn good beer, might not be worth it.
(even with my winning personality )

yeah,
definately a good laugh will be had by anyone who has been following this thread since its birth. Mys will probably spit his beer out laughing.

i feel so stupid though about this timing mark though...
i would have had it the 3rd time if the mark was lined up right...

think going to sears ill find a jam nut tool for cheap?
