Good afternoon all! Hope we are doing well today. Whole lot of staying inside for me. Need to enjoy the few weeks I have before summer classes start. Take it easy and drive safe.

I'z up.

Nice bright sunny day. 44F now, going up to 54F. Tonight is the last cold night. Then it's in the 70's.

Just got off the phone with the repair shop. Basically what happened.
Bearings going bad in the fan hub. Allowing the fan to move around. Chewed through belt.

Replaced belt. Didn't know that the bearings are going bad.

Bearings failed later. Letting the fan to chew into intercooler. Fan blades broke and took out the bottom radiator tank. And ripping the wiring out from the ecu controller. The damage to the intercooler and radiator is bad enough to warrant replacement, not repair.

The renters muddy everything up as they still wanted to go to the beach. They wants the shop to overnight the parts, and that would have cost another $650. Wife put a stop to that. So the renters are out of the picture now.

It wouldn't have been so bad if they wouldn't have wrecked the damn thing. That just poured salt into the wound.

If it would have caught fire and burned to the ground. That would have been the best thing to happen.

Rusty, really hope your streak turns around soon. Sorry it's been such a crappy week for you. I'll have a drink for you tonight.

I am very familiar with your SPL threads

Sitting outside a clinic in my Z. Have to give a sample for an upcoming Drs appointment.

You check in then go wait in your car. They text when they want you to come back inside. Hope they got a big jug ready...
