So close to finishing and the worst headache ever

Just finished the oil cooler line job, idler arm, fuel primer pump, replacing the transmission mount, and fixing the screwed up window regulator.

The last thing left is to fix the differential and add in the new mount as well as fix the broken bolt.

But man I have the worst headache. I was drinking water all day, but I wonder what caused it.

I noticed your location.

Could it be from the heat?

If you are hot and perspiring you need more than water. You need to drink a sports drink of some sort. I do not care for them but when I was working out side last year in the TX summer, the water did not cut it but Gatorade did the trick. I was still hot but my body did not hurt afterward. Just my 2 cents.

Too much work in too much heat. Go take some pills and lie down in the a/c.

It really wasn't that hot and humid yesterday. Mind you guys North East PA is a town near Erie and not Scranton :p

I was drinking water all day, but I think it might have been the mapp gas. I was using it a lot of frozen bolts and the air in the barn doesn't seem to move as well as I like.

Time to find a big box fan!

IF you drink a lot of water and have a headache, you may be low on salt.

You probably need more salt, drink a sports drink, they are actualy good for something once in awhile.

Oil cooler lines on a 617 suck, what a PITA design.

Exclamation *** VENTILATE OR PROSTRATE! ***

If you were heating up anything that was galvanized, or even oil-compounds, you were probably poisoning your system.

ANYTIME you're using a torch or flame, make sure you have V-E-N-T-I-L-A-T-I-O-N.

You're lucky someone isn't performing an A-U-T-O-P-S-Y on your carcass right now.

Be happy the headache is all you got. Stay away from the garage UNTIL YOU VENTILATE before lighting up again.

Your posts are funnier if you're able to post and you aren't "post." ( Or is that "toast?" )
