I got a job April 29, 2010, 10:49:46 AM Thank goodness! Man the economy is a bear, but I finally landed a job with Lockheed-Martin. I've been looking for 4 months. Looks like I will be back working on jets again! Now I can afford to get that motor rebuilt. Quote Selected

I got a job Reply #8 – April 29, 2010, 04:33:17 PM lol it was a hacker handle for the character dade murphy in the movie hackers. The only problem I'm having with it is figuring out where an oil leak is comming from. I'm thinkin it's the pcv valve. http://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?t=28004Yea kinda weird you spent so many years active over there, retire, wait for the construction, and go back as a civi makin the good money Quote Selected
I got a job Reply #9 – April 29, 2010, 05:59:23 PM I put a new main seal and pan gasket on there, plus a new input shaft seal on the trans. I had the whole engine/trans out to do it. Quote Selected
I got a job Reply #10 – April 29, 2010, 06:36:55 PM yea i remember you telling me that. I don't know for sure at all what it is. it's looking like it's coming from the rear seal. i'm gonna put it up on some ramps and have the car running since it's not leakin when it's off, to see where is coming from. I can see the smoke when i have my head under the hood, but can't see where it'shiznittin. my guess is the crossover pipe for the exhaust manifolds Quote Selected

I got a job Reply #12 – April 29, 2010, 10:23:19 PM I'm working at Lockheed right now. At the Ocala branch. I don't work directly for them though, I work for a drywall subcontracting company doing construction over there. We're on and off over there quite a bit. They are actually one of our biggest clients. I was laid off for the last week and a half, and then on tuesday they called me up and said there was work at LM for me. They are the only client we have right now. My company is 1 foot and several toes in the grave. LM seems like a good company to work for though. I tried to get a job there a few years ago, as a board solderer, didn't work out. They never called me back for the 3 weeks of training lol'gratz on getting back to work Quote Selected
