    Pulled the dead alternator out of my wife's hardly 5 year old car. What a joke.

    One of the hardest parts was finding any information on the Outlander Sport. I looked online for 3+ hours without coming across anything on removing the alternator. Haynes or Chilton don't make a DIY manual for Mitsubishi. I can find a post or video in a couple minutes on my Ford Ranger. No such luck on Outlander Sport. I had to buy a Mitsubishi Outlander Sport pdf from Mitsubishi. 

    The removal wasn't too fun. The biggest pain was the ac compressor below the alternator. It needed to be dropped and moved while the hoses stayed connected. That was a good hour or two trying to slide the alternator between the frame and compressor. Ugh. I'm glad it's out for now.

    sometimes you can put a lever or jack on the engine and move it an inch or so out of the way, can make a big difference getting stuff out.

    This is something I'm really going to miss about Saabs; it seems they were designed to be worked on.  The oil drain plug was at the front of the pan, about 15" behind the front of the bumper; I could remove it by only kneeling on one knee, once I knew where it was.  The oil filter was up near the top, and had this neat shroud which kept oil from spilling everywhere (my Toyota has that now, maybe they all do).  The fuze box was under the hood, on top of the wheel well, with a clear plastic lid covering it, with the protected circuit printed directly over each fuze.  There were spare fuzes, of each color-coded size, slid into plastic sleeves off to the side of the box.  Didn't even have to bend over to change a fuze.  Wonderful!

    Been doing yard work all day. Spreading manure compost to supplement my clay soil, and seeding and putting down straw. Also doing the brick edges for the sidewalk. 


    Also gonna cook some tube steaks on the smokey joe with some kingsford briqs. 



    My yard is practically all clay. Gypsum has done wonders.

    Started the day with the every 8 week blood letting at the Red Cross.  Shoulda stopped then.  Remainder was a true PITA- finally got home about 90 minutes ago.  
    Adult beverages will pack an extra punch given the pint low on human oil.  
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    @Ozzie_Isaac thanks for asking. First time I've had to sit down tonight. Kind of inchoerant this am.
    Barium remained stagnant all night. Stayed after my shift and cut him. Couldn't find a foreign body anywhere. My surgeon buddy (boarded veterinary surgeon) stopped in ..we hunt together and Cache has picked up his birds.
    He double checked everything, couldn't find a foreign body either. His liver values are elevated , so had him biopsy while we were in there..waiting those results.
    Right now we think he got into some toxin (no clue as to when or where) and its screwing up his Gi tract .

    Right now he's gorked on pain meds , and in good spirits. He wags his tail when I walk by his kennel.

    Went riding quads today.  Ran into some police officers who recommended we find a different trail.  There was a dead body up the trail and they were waiting for a medical examiner to remove it.  Luckily that doesn't happen every day.

    Skunks eradicated. Decking on stairway replaced. Plants in the ground. Trees and bushes are trimmed. New backyardlights put up. Killed all the ants. Removed the old fans and put can lights on the front porch. Herb garden in. Eggs are loaded with Rockwood and wood. 

    Just pulled the brisket. Time to Sous Vide some ribs. Memorial Day Pre Debauchary is about to begin. 


    My hero.
