haha, thanks Rusty Rod. Its ok though, i'm used to it, my first major mechanical project was replacing a clutch in a super-compact kubota. If you know anything about compact tractors...its a nightmare, it was older so i didn't have a book, but i had the thing torn in half(they use the drivetrain as the framework) in about a day. Dad about had a heart attack when he saw it, but the best part was when i returned it to the farmer(who i work for). He asked dad if he had any trouble, dad told him i did it, you should have seen the look on his face!! i was like 13.
so i'm used to being heckled because of my age...
