I present to you, 1500cc Honda engine. 92 horsepower and 97 foot pounds of torque at the crank at sea level, I'm probably putting 50-60hp to the wheels at my altitude. Neck snapping acceleration. 55-60mpg on the highway.

I didn't think it was possible to hate you more after you posted pics of your first ride......
I was wrong ......

@EndersShadow,
I hope you had some good music blaring while you were executing that task! It always helps make the medicine go down, so to speak.

Today was no diff. Electrical scares the $hit out of me. Redid 2 GFI outlets to move them from builder grade Manila with 15 years of age to white like the rest of the outlets and plate covers.
Then added a USB outlet and some LED backlighting...

Nice.
We had a phenomenal sunset last Friday night. I had no camera handy (and of course, those moments are fleeting, especially this far north at this time of year).

HA! What you DONT SEE is the amount of time it took me in my inexperience to realize you need to wire the outlets in sequence if running to a secondary outlet. IE I had 4 wires, 2 hot 2 neutral and had them all connected wrong lol...
Nice massive cut in my hand right now from a flathead screwdriver that got away from me while trying to force the bend on the side nut till I found you can use the back pinholes to secure it down lol...
So I will for sure still need that advice and will be calling eventually lol....Moose68Bash wrote: »mhardy6647 wrote: »Flip the breakers, first
Yup, have a outlet tester and the FIRST thing I did was plug it in and make sure no juice.
