Wow! But I guess you guys have had warm temps for awhile though. Wish our ground was warm already. I have some Kentucky Wonder pole beans.... I should try them. Make it easier for the deer to get them if they're up high, lol!
I started Blue Lake bush beans. That's what I had last year.

This has nothing to do with anything, lol, but last night when Larry was watching American Chopper, they showed the inside of Paul Sr.'s garage. Have you all seen the beautiful Oldsmobiles he has in there? I didn't know he was in to the classic cars too. He sure has some beauties in there. Looked like a gorgeous 69 442 drop top amongst others......

Not so good here but we'll make it ![Frown](https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
Like Jamesbo said cow + flat rock
Well I get this call from my daughter and she is having car troubles. Seems what Mike's van did is contagious
It's a 2001 Cavalier, so can't be much right?
Well I leave werk early to find a slew of cops wit lights going and a whole lane blocked on a busy two lane with folks trying to get to work and school
She's freaking out and even was able to get her car just to the right of the white line, so I don't see why all of the commotion
Anywho I get them to help me push it waaaaay off the road good enough for them to let me leave it there long enough to take her to school and come back and see what's gwan on. Hmmm da boyfriend musta put Phord plugs or something on it
(Sorry Clint
I couldn't help it
) Well the battery is fine but when I turn the key, nothing
no dash lights, nothing.
Hmm so I'm thinking ignition switch or fuses. Well it's not the fuses so I guess my day will consist of trying to get this POS going again
Hopefully it'll stop raining soon so I can trouble shoot it. And if it's too much trouble, I'll just shoot it ![Big Grin](https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Well I hope you all have a better day than I

Evening everyone.
Scot I'm sorry I started a trend. I hope the Chevy people will help you. Since you most likely won't be dealing with any of the places around me, your chances of success are more than mine would be. I friend of mine had a Cavalier that quit on him driving to work one day. It wasn't the ignition, it was a rod through the pan.
Got a distributor for the van, and while I'm at it, will get a new cap and rotor, plugs, wires, and an air filter and whatever else I can see to replace while the doghouse is off. I love G20 vans but working on the engine and messing with the cover can be a PITA.
Work tonight. Gonna be nice, a little chilly but no rain. I think we're done with the rain for awhile, which I like.
Okay time to go. Hope everyone is having a nice evening.
Mike

Good Evening All.
Nothing exciting here lately.
The weather has been nice lately, so I decided to go for a drive when I got home tonite. One of these times I should take a pic or two.
Watching the NHL playoffs right now (Are we allowed to mention sports in this thread?)
I will need to get caught up on a few posts now.

Hope you get her going again. I'm not sure what GM was thinkin when they came up with their new 'ignition switch'. Just replaced another one in an 07 Envoy today. (4th one in this vehicle)
Paul, rounding up the bowling season. have 2 weeks to go. I'm ready for some outdoor sports. Mowed the lawn tonite. Wasn't really looking forward to that part of summer tho.
Bought another .22 today. Had a loose barrel on my Model 190 and no-one could fix it. So, I tackled it myself, and after a little jerry rigging, got that tightened up.

Sunny and in the 50's now, heading towards 70!! I came to work another way this morning, so I was here by 5 till 8. Don't like the little back road, but beats sitting in traffic - to quote Jamesbo - watching the ODOT people lean on their shovels, lol!![Big Grin](https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Well I got Teepo back yesterday afternoon. Left work at 10 to 5, met Larry at the house and off we went. I'm very happy except...................
Her steering wheel is crooked.
Her steering wheel should not be crooked!!!! It goes to the right. The rocket is not straight up and down. I don't like it!!!
Evidently they took off the steering gear box to clean it and paint it. I just figured they'd paint it on the car. So how did they mess up the steering wheel?
How can I get it straight again?? Is it worth it to take her back over there or is it an easy fix to get it straight again? Blue??? Scot??? Rob???? Anyone?![Big Grin](https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Does it mess with the alignment or anything? I don't know anything about crooked steering wheels, lol.
Other than that, the paint on the trunk looks beautiful, the power steering lines look much smaller than the ones that were on her - there's more metal showing and they are spread out, where her old ones were like on top of each other. But they look very nice - even without stripes! I'll take a pic soon and show you.
I will wait to hear from you guys on the steering wheel before I call Don himself and complain. It's just such a PITA to miss work to get over there and drop her off and all that crap. If it's something Larry can fix, I'll do that.
Quiet in here. Brian is off tomorrow, so that will be nice! Keep me a little busier!!
Well you all have a great day! Good luck with the ignition, Scot!

Mornin Olds lovers.
Sandy. They may have reattached the column to the gearbox a spline or 2 off. it might be a quick easy fix. If that is all it is, there should me no reason to re-align it.
Not supposed to hit 60 today, gonna look like Ohio today.

It depends on how they took it apart. The input shaft on the gearbox is splined. they will need to remove the pinch bolt, pull off the coupler, and reinstall. They should start by making sure the tires are pointing straight ahead. then they can set the wheel to the tires.
#4338
Good!!
Thank you Jamesbo, lol. It looked to me when I got down on the floor in front of her in the garage, that the front tires are like leaning to the left some, but steering wheel is to the right, from the inside? Know what I mean? Hard to explain.

Not a wheel alignment, a steering wheel alignment.
In a perfect world the steering wheel would stay perfectly lined up.
I've never done one and had the wheel stay aligned at 12 o'clock, maybe I have no luck.
With the wheels pointing straight you loosen the tie rod adjusting sleeves and evenly turn them whatever direction is needed to align the wheel and when it's straight tighten them back up. It doesn't change anything but the steering wheel position, turn the adjusting sleeves unevenly and you will mess up the toe.
When you do a wheel alignment you clamp the steering wheel in the straight position and bring the front end alignment back to it.

It should have been that way to begin with, but evidently whoever worked on her couldn't grasp that concept or something!
They must not understand that everything is supposed to line up. I've only had her front end lined up one time, and that was when I got the new tires on her a few years back. They look cocked inwards to me now.....

Ok Jamesbo..... You'll be happy to know I just talked to Don Sitts and he told me to bring the car back over and he will see that she is fixed!
I asked if I should call the Service Dept., and he said no, he was going to go right out and tell them that I would be bringing her back in and I would be waiting on her and they will get her right in!! He did not sound pleased with them, lol. He said they will put her on the machine and make sure everything is good!! So I guess I'll be using a vacation day next week to go get that done. Shoulda been done correctly in the first place......
I have to take a 1/2 day off on Tuesday and take her to Highland Rd. Auto Body so Bob can have his Sherwin Williams rep there with their computerized camera and he's gonna see if he can match her paint. I showed him those 14 paint sticks I have already, where they tried, but he seems to think he can do something the other place couldn't or somethin. I'm taking the rims over to him tomorrow at lunch time and dropping them off so he can start cleaning them up for paint. Steve won't be happy with me taking time off, but oh well!!! This is Teepo we're talking about.

Well I got the car towed to Hamby Chubby Dealership and they are gonna honor the recall and change the ignition switch and harness. Yay! Now I pray that IS the problem. I guess it could be the BCM, but I wouldn't think so since it died while going down the road
Definitely a safety hazard whatever it is.
Glad to hear Don will take care of the issue Sandy, he sounds like a good guy. I would take him all of your business if it were me. It's hard to find decent people in the business this day and the way the economy is now. Good luck with matching the paint as well.

Howdy doody! Another night when my neighbor's son brought over his dog and distracts my dogs. Fun. Now they have to be in the house all night without being out and I have a feeling he does this on purpose. Why I couldn't tell you, except maybe that he's a *****.
So! Day two is upon me. Last night wasn't so bad, except I had to stay till the end. Who ever heard of staying at work the whole required time? Well I got to bed around 11 this morning and the dogs let me sleep until 5. How nice!
Sandy Don should know by now how you are with Teepo. I'm sure it doesn't phase him in the least, and I know he will get things right. I wouldn't want to be in the poor dude's shoes who messed up.
Scot I'm glad the Cavalier will be fixed, and I hope that fixes it. I worked at a couple Chevy places for awhile and that was one car that had really very few problems.
Okay off to work. Everyone have a great night.

Of course storms later and into tomorrow with temps dropping to 49 for the high tomorrow!!! I wish it would just stay warm already. Hate to say it, but we need some rain, lol. My flower beds are really dry......
Quiet in here. Brian is off today so it's nice, lol. Steve does have his friggin heater going....
Man can't possibly be cold!!! It's on every day. It got up to 82 in here the other day and I looked at Brian and told him that's just ridiculous, and I went out and flipped on the AC!!! It's 76 now and climbing.....
I gave Teepo a nice sponge bath last night and a coat of wax.
She liked it!! Still have to do the trunk yet. Also gotta clean out the inside and clean the windows and polish the bumpers. Will get that done this weekend.
I have the rims in Tincanio so I can run them over to Bob in Macedonia at lunch time.

Well the courtesy from da Chubby place never happened as promised yesterday eve nor this morning so I called them to see what's gwan on. Well it seems they are waiting on the harness and it won't be in until Monday morning
So much for customer service and common courtesy
Man I sure wish I'd had bought the Alero I looked at instead of the Cavalier now but everyone knows hindsight is 20/20. I know I know the Alero and the Cavalier are pretty much the same car but Oldsmobile put a bit more "pride" in their cars. Yeah the Cavalier is a great first car, but having to deal with people that act like they don't need your business makes me want to sell it and try another make of car.
I do know this, if it ain't reliable I don't need it.
I guess we shall see Monday evening hopefully ![Confused](https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)

Hey everyone. I think I'm posting to the Good Evening thread lately.
Friday! I got out really early this morning, so I hope that doesn't cancel an early out for my Friday. Well, I have the whole weekend plus so it doesn't matter.
I've been feeling neglected and negative lately. Poor me. I need a vacation. But where to go? I think I'll stay home and play with the dogs. When I leave their "vacation" is going to dog jail. Wish I could take them with me some time.
Well everyone have a great evening and weekend.
Mike

Good Evening All.
Well, the stretch of nice weather here is over. Rain today, tomorrow and more next week. They are even predicting some of the solid rain on Monday. Guess the Delta will be staying parked for a while.
I heard today I am now working until the end of June!![Big Grin](https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Nothing exciting planned for the weekend.

Hey everyone! Looks like I been missing out on a great social thread here. Today is looking really good here - bit windy but sunny and clear. No 'yard werk' for me yet.
The snow has finally gone but the ground is still wet and frozen in most places.
Got to the shed yesterday to find some car stuff and also took out the 'one pull' start lawmower and weed wacker. Tried them to see if they still run and unfortunately they do.![Wink](https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Was going to BBQ today, but the wife told me otherwise. Guess it would help to ask before I start taking out stuff to make....and here I thought she'd appreciate not having to cook. Oh well.![Stick Out Tongue](https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
Wish I could take the Cutlass out for a spin, but it still needs some front end finishing and alignment. Have a great day everyone!

Afernoon all
Beautifful day
Unfotunately tragedy hit my wife's family and today we had to bury her sister's oldest son [24]
With rue my heat is laden
For golden friends I have had
For many a rose lipt maiden
and many a light foot lad
By brooks to broad for leaping
the light foot boys are laid:
The rose lipt girls are sleeping
in fields where roses fade
-Housman
