I like your backsplash. A LOT.

Where are you putting the bead board?

Ran the gas line for the generator today and it would not pump any gas through the line, OK The fuel pump quit so I bought a new fuel pump and still no gas, I could blow through the line but no exhaust on the line so I took the tank off and found that the end that was on the line tube had some kind of one way valve on it, I removed it and now it works fine, Only I had just went and pumped 27 gallons of gas into the tank just before I installed the generator's gas line and with no way to pump the gas back out I took the tank off with the gas still inside the tank, It will be a Bit*h to put back but I will get it there some how........... That is just part of a rebuild............I ran the generator with the tank out on the ground and I had to re-adjust the choke and idle because when the roof AC kicked on and ran on cool for a few then it would kick off causing the generator the run pass the 1800 RPM limit causing it to shut down, Its fixed now and running great I just need to install the gas tank tomorrow.

Allow me to recycle a classic phrase:
