Found My Bean Bags

Post by Liquifried »

I now know where the bean bags went for my Baggo game. Got this txt from Rick, the mechanic and it said "Never found corn in a crankshaft". Looks like the mice enjoyed their stay at Chateau de La Sportfire. I pulled the motor and put it high up on a shelf. Lesson learned.... Always plug the holes! :roll:

Pulled apart a dirtbike or two that looked like that- one the mice had stuffed it FULL from airbox to tail pipe (carb, cylinder, etc, included) with seeds and bits. Took some doing but its still running today. The other had a torn air filter boot and was ridden through a wheat field- filled the engine up with wheat and killed it. That one didnt get fixed...

The one that made me the most angry though... My great grandpa bought a '48 Dodge pickup brand new in 1948. Used it on the farm for years and years before it died- got parked in the scrap heap. Someone left the breather cover off and the mice pulled ALL of the stuffing out of the seat and pushed it down that hole into the crankcase. Fast forward 20 years- I drug it out of the scrap heap for my high school shop project and discovered that mess. Yuck.
