I swapped the spark plugs/plug wires and had 0 trouble... which is weird!

On a Strange note, I crawled under my truck to do a fuel filter, and discovered that someone put a fuel filter that is to wide to fit in the filter holder, so it was pinned between the holder bracket and the rail... I gotta pull it out of the trash can so I can google what it goes too. It is a Motorcraft part though... Just thought that was pretty unususal for a friday the 13th.

It wasn't this Friday the 13th but about 10 yrs ago a buddy of mine and I were going to his property to have a fire and hang out. We were going up the rd in separate vehicles. My 1983 f150 and his 1984 ford tempo. I didn't know the rd I was on but he did. They had just tar and chipped the rd and he was weaving back and forth making all kinds of dust and I could not see where I was going. All of a sudden his tail lights disappeared and I was in a ditch that was about 3 ft deep. Had to put it in 4 wheel drive to get out. He did come back for me. So we finally got to the place and we get out of our vehicles and we can hear a hissing sound. I think it's my tire cause of the ditch but it wasn't. It was his! Then another friend of ours showed up and was there long enough to cut the tip of his thumb the whole way off when he tried to make a stick to cook a hotdog.

We look back and laugh about it but that night sucked

My 92 Lincoln beat a 02 modified Lightning.. all the way from 45-120. I think that counts for bad luck for the guy with the Lightning. Lol

At publix, the track for the sliding doors at the entrance, my mother tripped on it and fell to the ground. Head bounced off the ground and cracked her phone. Luckily she was alright.
