So after the Water Pump Follies, we did the Salem show for five days, had a good time, visited with friends and generally kicked back. Sunday we packed up to head home. Fortunately, it's cool and rainy out today. I say fortunately, because I cranked the genset to run the roof air, and hit the switch accidentally a second time, which turned the set off when the starter tried to engage. Tried to restart, GRAUNNNNCH!. Oops - took a tooth off something there. So, home we went with the windows open, and since it was 70s out, not a bad ride.
The starter now grinds instead of engaging. Out comes the Junkerac this weekend. I am not minded to reinstall it, I would prefer either my Kohler or my Yamaha. We'll see which one might fit. Or, I may consider a contractor's special, a la KenH. Also this weekend hopefully I'll diagnose the dash air and get started fixing it. I think the front seal is gone but I want to confirm before simply replacing.
