The Need for Spark

 

As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.

I mentioned this previously in passing, but as our 2009 GMC burned a spark plug wire off, and the mechanic decided it needed 500 bucks worth of plugs, wires and distributor due to it having 190,000 miles on it, that beyond making sure your vehicles are serviced and ready to go, as it looks that sometime in the future there are not going to be parts nor service, that everyone should be looking at spark plugs.

You can mow your lawn, which I would not do as in a meltdown a mowed lawn would mean people with things, and who could hear anyone with a lawnmower running, sneaking up on them. My focus is what I would need with someone watching my back.


That means your generator needs a spark plug.

This means your chainsaws need spark plugs, meaning PLURAL.

This means your roto tiller needs spark plugs.


Now you can dig with a shovel and raise nothing in your garden. You can sit with candles in the dark, and you can cut your wood with a bucksaw so you get blisters, but in all of this the smart person, and that is beyond these prepper sites you buy things from, are never telling you what Lame Cherry has in you need spark plugs. For chainsaws you should have back up chains, a sharpener and the oils with gas.

I found on Ebay a mechanics sevice set of 2009 vintage 24 pack  J19LM spark plugs that go in a number of things..........including my Poulan 2000, which I told you before I purchased 3 more almost new ones on Ebay over the past years,  so I have wood cutting implements and the reason I chose this older version is I do not need to prime anything. I take the choke cover off, put some fuel in carb to get it running and it is about retard proof. These other nice saws can flood with priming and have other problems when I do not want to be standing around taking a saw apart. This Poulan that people cuss, is old. I take care of it though and it does the job for the wood we need to supplement our home heating.

You will need to find your spark plug parts number and sometimes you will need to go to a guy with the book in the store to see replacement parts in another brand. I got old Champion plugs because they are good plugs and they do not wear out sitting in a box out of the elements.

So you have been told again as I write this in the Thanksgiving week and who knows what is come since then.


.....and as far as I know if the plug has an R on it, it is a Resistor, meaning it will not clack on your radio. and in a meltdown will work as long as it is the same number.

Just get the ones you need though by the parts number.
