Reviving the Metro

I was in municipality today on business and stopped by at a motor shop and picked up a new engine for the metro.  It was only $290 for the locomotive!  I still can't believe how cheap that is.  Of course, the whole buying an engine thing just underscores the serious trunk of scope creep we are experiencing....
We started out pulling the head to see if it was warped.  It was and the middle piston was entirely full of water so I took the head down and had it machined.  

Since the head was off, and that required pulling the timing belt, we figured we might as well get a new timing swath, and since that was off we figured we might as well do the water pump (actually, I think I verified that it was leaking - it may have been what caused the overheating in the first place)
Then, I figured with the head off, I might as well hone the cylinders and instate new rings.
Then the guys at the auto shop convinced me that if the engine was overheated to the point where it quit running (it was) then it would as likely as not be a good idea to have the entire block rebuilt and they pointed out to me that I could buy the engine at City Motor in Dallas for wonderful cheap....so I figured they were right and did that.
Of course, now with the engine out, I can see that the clutch is wearing and so we might as well replace that, so I need to buy a new snag a grasp at.  Also, since the oil pump has to be pulled to install it on the shortblock, we might as well go ahead and get a new one of those too right?
Oh yeah, and with the engine pulled, now would definitely be the most superbly time to replace the CV shafts/boots that are totally ripped, worn and popping.
What else?
One more cool thing - we removed the locomotive with

Making good on a resolution

by Erin Craig

We had a very provocative evening at my house yesterday. At about 6:30 pm, my husband interrupted my post-run shower to tell me that the our hot water heater’s inlet whistle — the one that fills the water heater from the City’s supply lines — was hot.

“You actually put your hand on it?” I said, a bit incredulously.

“No, no, on the insulation,” he assured me. “The insulation is fitting warm, I’m sure the pipe is very hot.”

This was good news. It meant that as my shower depleted the hot water tank, it was being replenished with water that was already hot.

Not to be outdone, I waited until his post-application shower was finished, then went out to the garage and listened closely. No whooshing natural gas noise.

“Hey,” I shouted. “The water heater isn’t heating!”

I repeated this sacramental no fewer than 3 more times over the course of the evening. I did it when my daughter took her shower. And when the dishwasher was running through its first cycle. And when it was event through some other cycle, just to be sure.

Throughout the evening, the water heater performed perfectly, delivering nice hot water without ever tripping the temperature sensor (chiefly tripped by cold water coming in from the city to replenish the warm water we use from the tank). As a result, the natural gas flame never ignited and we enjoyed fossil-tinder-free hot water.

The joys of a solar water heating in action!

As I noted in an earlier blog post, I pledged to institute a solar water heating system as my New Year’s resolution. My utility enacted an incentive program enabled by a current state law, and mine was the first project installed under that program by my contractor.
