Today after replacing my starter, solinoid, and ECM I took Oblivion out for what was supposed to be a 10 mile jaunt to make sure the ECM was programmed correctly. Not to happen. It appears the main seal on the transmission let go, spewing copious amounts of fluid everywhere. Even when parked and off...

ECM

This is a common problem with the 7.5. After many years of sitting around or running around the ECM tends to go completely bonkers. Mine acted up this Friday. After the engine warmed up a bit the stalling begins. Letting it cool down for an hour or so allowed me to run it. This of course was after a...

Clay baked Trout with Pesto

Ok now this may seem a bit odd but trust me, this method will work for most skin on whole fish and it is a really cool presentation when you unwrap it. You can bake this on a hot bed of coals outdoors. The secret to this dish is really fresh fish. Also- You can change up the filling if you want. A c...

Great

You will love PEI. Went their years and years ago as a kid to the Canadian Scout Jamboree in 1977 (Damn that was so long ago) Pretty as a postcard. Reminds me of the English Countryside, great lobster there too, and the water is warm due to the gulf stream hugging part of the Island. Plus the new er...

Lazy Man Mojitos

I have an herb garden here in Vegas. The only perennial survivors are mint and rosemary. This is one of my favorite lounge in the pool on a hot summer day drink. ps if you do not have a muddler, an old wooden cooking spoon works great for the task. Large Glass Handful of fresh mint 1.5 shots white r...

Bananas Foster aka Drunken Bananas-So Easy!

This one is for all those people who like bananas- my wife Diane included. I make her Bananas Foster as a treat at home, so this is my camping aka lazy man version. Also a great excuse for me to bring along a pint of dark rum to enjoy with a cigar. Foil butter brown sugar peeled banana- cut into qua...

Specs on the rear rack?

Hi- Love the concept of carrying the Yaks on the back instead of the top.
We have 2 9.5's and I would love to know how you fabricated the carrier you have there.

I know what your talking about. Di and I have actually had some of our best meals while camping or traveling. We camp/traveled southeast Australia during their spring a number of years ago.

Grilled Boneless Leg of Lamb

This is a great recipe for charcoal grilling lamb. It cooks quickly and you can guarantee it will be tender and not overcooked. You can prep it before your trip, freeze it in the marinade, and then charcoal grill it at camp when it thaws. Makes great Gyros! Ingredients 1 young lamb leg, bone out, re...
