Another one of those how does this happen ?

[BIGSHCLUNK]

I have NEVER seen a shaft on an armature break, ever. This is from my BIG loader. Used it all morning loading a semi full of cores. Went to start it after lunch,starter would spin and not engage. Pulled it... found this.... WTH ?

Kick back when trying to start?  I've seen the whole snout broken off from a good kickback at the wrong time...

It's trying to tell you to retire BIGS. I keep saying.

No kickback..........

If I weren't going to Florida Murray I'd be heading your way for sure!

@BIGSHCLUNK  you should come mid August for Moparfest. I have three cars registered, I need drivers.

[BIGSHCLUNK]

Would really depend on the date - My mgr usually takes a weeks vacation in August. So no getting away that week.  And the wife's birthday is the 13th... I have to tread lightly.

Moparfest is August 17 & 18. You could take her on an international excursion for her birthday.

@blown motor    you know Murray, that may just work. Let me ease it into the conversation.  Now I still need to know when my MGR is going on vacation!

I couldn't wait... so I txt..... and she goes... "Fun "   We will see when she gets off work! 

[blown motor]

I don't know your wife but was that a serious "fun" or a sarcastic "fun"? 

[BIGSHCLUNK]

A little of both I guess.... I'd say as of right now we are on (95%) for sure. I just need to get some logistic's in line. Of course she's asking me a ton of questions I have no answers too as of yet. How long to get there, hotel room, money exchange, dog sitter, Murray is letting you take one of his cars, ect ect ect... ??? 

So a warning to the Canadian government.... BIGS is coming, be prepared !
