[Vwdiesel] Oh Fudge (timing belt broke)

[lbaird119 at aol.com]

  While taking our daughter back to UW, my wife had to drive the pu 
to work.  Every time she drives it she asks if it'll start, if it'll run, 
what 
if...  I don't know why since every morning, I climb in, glow and go!

  Well, tonight, she gets halfway down the street and it dies.  Dad goes 
to check on it and I suspect the stop solenoid, what else could it be?
Yeah, the worst thing it could be.  So, tomorrow, instead of fixing 
tractors for pay, I'll pull the head, order parts then rebuild the head 
on Tuesday afternoon/evening and hopefully have the head back on 
before Wed morning, when I have to put in carpet.  At least if I'm 
not done, the material is on site so I can throw the tools in the car 
and go.  Never fails I'll miss something doing it that way though...
  Ugh!
