tips n tricks

while rejetting my edelbrock carburetor i discovered the replacement needles and jets that come with the calibration kit are marked with a stamped number that is so small it is practically impossible to read even with a magnifier glass. i started thinking about all the "CSI" episodes i watched and put my brain in forensic science mode, at which time i grabbed a Sharpie and painted over the numbers then wiped off the excess ink from the needle. I was now able to read the highly contrasted numbers stamped on the needles and jets. CSI would be proud...........

i would suggest you paint over them with a Sharpie and then wipe off the exess ;) i hear it works great.

That was very good thinking man. Alot of ppl wouldn't have even thought about that. I'll have to keep that in mind so if something ever comes up that small i will be able to read it :)

No... You just needs to buy some new sockets from sears...

I've needed glasses for so long:

but the doctor says wait, because my eyes haven't become dystrophic enough yet?

What the hell do doctors know anyway?

They told me I would die in three years 11 years ago. So now I tell them the ghost is here for his appointment, asshole! they laugh.

My pecker has WTA tattooed to it:

When it gets stiff, it says Welcome To America!

I don't have to worry about small things!
