Good weekend

Well i never got paged all week so that was awesome. On top of that i didn't have to go into work today until 2pm. The best part of the weekend was Saturday until about 3pm though. I managed to get my Eclipse running finally! Put the starter in friday night, then charged the battery over night. Since it was warm saturday it started right up after a little work and running out the fuel from the lines. After that i took it for a little spin and showed it to a friend. All went well.

The friend brought over a mini motocross bike. I never rode one before so the little 125cc was enough to have some fun, but small enough that if it got away i could just stand up. Definitely a good time and my yard was ok for a bit of a run with it. Did a little bit of accidental wheelies or going into neighbors yard, but overall not too bad for first time, no big spills or blood or anything.

Later I decided the eclipse needed some more time on the streets so i went out some more. Found another friend to give a ride to, drove around a while. Went under a bridge with the wastegate wide open. Good times. Then it was time to take him back home. Got off the highway and stopped at another light. Third in line with three behind me the tach jumps around a bit and car dies. No chance of restarting but it does crank. After a bit of troubleshooting and friends stopping by it turned out it was time for a tow from AAA. its home now, but it seems the ignition box i bought last year might be fried since it doesn't seem to be sparking (Wrench stuff: Coil on plug is a little harder to check, but the timing light which worked before doesn't show any flashes indicating inducted current while cranking).

haven't gotten to the car yet, but yesterday I hooked up a friend with an AT&T tilt unlocked to work with their t-mobile plan. Today i pulled the railing off the back porch so i have more room for the Grill i got yesterday too.

Lot more happening this weekend to write about than there has been for a while. Guess i liked the warmer weather!
