Think I may have a leak.

Went to fire up the grill last night, and there was no more propane. ( I better call Hank) I bought the tank about 3 weeks ago and used it once.

Think I may be going back to a Charcoal grill.

The best way to check for leaks is to just light up a cigarette.. if you catch on fire, you have a leak. If you don't then prob not..



Have you checked the propane tank regulator or the hose to the grill? rubber hose so probable failure point.

So the JBweld for the Accord didn't work for the hairline crack in the radiator.. Sister told me she drove and the temp went all the way up to H grr... hope she doesn't crack a head...


Just one day shipped denso radiator, gates hoses, hose clamps, and 2 gallons OEM blue honda fluid to her place and she should be taking it to a mechanic tomorrow...


why would you keep driving when it goes to H /rant

Damn. I'm surprised considering I've repaired an AC line with JB weld before.

ohhhhh yea.

My old Accord is being shipped off to Colorado.

Went by Ford on Saturday to look at something and noticed my old Accord sitting by the door. So I went and asked a salesman about it and he said that someone in Colorado bought it.

I thought the car was gone weeks ago because it wasn't on their website. He said the person from CO just bought it a couple of days ago. If I knew that I would have bought it back.

My wife was like damn, too bad we didn't go a couple weeks ago. Because she said she wanted the car back too. Now we are looking at Accord Sports, but Toyota is giving us a better deal then Honda. (We've own 2 cars from Toyota and paid both off within 2 years)

The fact your old car was at a Ford dealership with all those Mustangs (which look IDENTICAL to the Accord)...priceless.

Honda wants to give me a shitty interest rate, while Toyota is giving us a better one. Better then any credit union/banks too. But the new Camry is meh.

Damn it, I should have taken a picture. It's not being shipped until tomorrow I will swing back over there and see if I can get a picture.

Toyota is known down here for giving 0% interest all the time. I still wouldn't get one just because I don't like them.


Oh well lesson learned , no to JBweld...

Yes, I've looked at the Optima, I really really like them. I think they're a little overpriced. I think the top of the line Optima is 36k.

That's what they are offering. It's their Annual sale too, so I can get a 2015 Camry SE for under 20k. 24k MSRP, some discount then an additional $750 so it would be $18,900.

Honda wants to offer me 3.9%, their reasoning was because we just bought the house and the Explorer.


I'm looking into the Fusion titanium too, since I have a pretty good relationship with Ford now.

Love Ford's titanium line... Had the fusion titanium as a rental before and by far favorite so far. Edge titanium was a nice CUV TOO!

I am certain I can live without it...
will I regret not jumping on these while they are still not totally treated like crap or become so rare they cost an arm and a leg to own?

I don't know...everything I've read says you'll have massive smiles and be in love with the car and not want to sell it.

Now, will I miss my TL and the S2000? Probably...
