People have this much free time to screw off and make Dumb videos!
If I had all that free time, I'd be working on my truck and not making dumb videos!

I've known guys like this. He'll also sell you a pack of grid squares for your maps, as well as brand new chemlight batteries, and then send you off to Co. HQ to look for a PRC-E8

Thanks for the video. IMPORTANT STUFF!

Well before you do that I feel you must really take care to rotate the muffler and inspect and or replace the muffler bearings (This might require you taking it to a shop).

Make sure you have summer air in your tires. A lot of people do not know this but sometimes the compressor has the wrong seasonal air and it does not do the job correctly. Best practice is to blow it up yourself. So the procedure (I think this is in the -82 TM): 1.) Take the wheel assembly (tire and rim) off the vehicle (remember to use jack stands). 2.) Remove the valve stem core (Removers are very inexpensive). 3.) Push out the old or last seasons air. 4.) Blow in to your best ability new seasonal air (This may be tough, use your tongue as a stopper when inhaling new seasonal air. YOU CAN BE AS GOOD AS ANY COMPRESSOR). 5. Quickly install valve stem core. 6.) Finish off with compressor to desired PSI. (This process here may lengthen the life of the tire and correct a lot of imbalance found in your tires.)

Those are a few procedures I find STEEL-SOLDIERS tends not to spend time on but are very important.

Oh my my, a lot of work................
But it 'tis an escapee from Home Forum General The mess hall Joke of the day"

I remember
50 feet of flight line
a bucket of steam etc etc

Lol

 

[gcbennet]

Don't forget the buckets of prop wash, sky hooks, and checking the carrier's road wheel tire pressures. lol By the way, the new spools of flight line should only be the high-vis yellow type. If they come back with white it's the older winter stuff we don't use any more, so send them back searching for the new all-season yellow.

Thanks for enjoying the humor.

I am not selling. Maybe I said something wrong, somewhere to give your that impression. I have a M998 and I just bought a M998A1(so I am buying).
