Where'm I gonna live? - Page 16

infinite monkey · 12-07-2012, 06:16 PM

I do.

Reminds me of a part in St Elmos's Fire, where the rich girl gets her own little apartment and says (paraphrase): i made a peanut butter sandwich, and it was my peanut butter, and my bread... (something like that.)

Pearl is doing doggy things...so cute.

I'm so glad things are better for the both of you and now you can relax and settle which is the fun part.

Griff · 12-07-2012, 10:07 PM

You and Pearl have both found your groove. Good stuff.

classicman · 12-07-2012, 10:36 PM

Happy for you Tony. Sounds like all the work has been worth it. The stress removal is probably incalculable. Good for you.

I have a two bedroom house, one bedroom for me, and one bedroom for stuff... and boy is it stuffed.

I have a one bedroomed house. With a single main room downstairs. Tiny rooms at that. Colloquially known as a 'one up one down'. It's also a 'back to back'. There's no back door. The back of my house is the back of another house facing in the opposite direction. I am surrounded (as in share walls with) on three sides by neighbours.

And my puppy has recently discovered the unparralleled joys of a fucking good bark.

Yes exactly

jimhelm · 12-10-2012, 08:57 AM

You have fuel?

You may just need to bleed the fuel line. There is a little chrome bolt with a nipple somewhere.

Undertoad · 12-10-2012, 09:08 AM

Yep over 1/2 a tank. I did see a Youtuber on bleeding the line. I will give that a try first, that seems simple enough. (And yet they won't tell anyone to try it because it's fuel and 1 out of 100 will kill themselves.)

That's a good place to start. If your getting oil and it doesn't fire it's probably the igniter. If it fires but shuts down, it's probably the electric eye that shuts it down if it doesn't see a flame.

I must say I was very satisfied with the heat while it was on. It was hot.

that's the good kind!

If you haven't had a pro come out and service it, you should really do that. I always did it once a year. they need to clean the burner, and the chimney. If you have blockage in your exhaust, you could kill/injure yourself with the carbon monoxide. A service call should cost around $100. Wingard Oil was my local company in Elverson 610-286.5300 Tom is a nice guy. Sam was a good honest tech.

maybe give them a try if you don't have someone you trust near by.

infinite monkey · 12-10-2012, 09:22 AM

Yes, get a CO detector. Probably saved my life in my finished basement in my house years ago.

DanaC · 12-10-2012, 10:29 AM

And Sam's experiences are proof positive of the potential consequences of a slow non-lethal dose.
