Winter here so I transition to inside stuff usually. And nickle and dime stuff fixing stuff that ought to have been fixed over the summer. Current project is an old Dell Optiplex 740 with bad capacitors. I could have replaced the capacitors but Oh noooooo, I decided to put a mother board from a 780 into the old case. Turns out the front I/O panel and cable are different, so I'm looking for a 780 front panel and cable. Why mess with an old computer? Gives me something to do and keeps me busy and out of trouble. I did change out the carb on a neighbor's generator set yesterday. Got it running, ethanol gas again, it has a resin fuel tank and the ethanol really did job on it, the binders from the tank had coated the inside of the carb and ruined the seals and gaskets. Time to top off the batteries on the scooters as they sit over winter and the batteries on the riding lawnmowers and whatever else sits over winter. You don't want them sitting dead over winter.
