So it seems the Dimetrodon's engine has a bad lifter. It was probably a bad part from the beginning—this is the second engine we got from this company after the first was defective—but this was not apparent until after they'd run it for a bit, and now it's developed a bad tick. ATC are very generously doing the repair on it out of their own pocket since it's now past its 6 month warranty. They will have to tear it open and put in a new lifter, maybe new cams. That means probably at least another week's delay.

Monkey is being quiet today, and now on the penultimate day of our quarantine, I need to figure out our next move. I'd figured the remaining repairs couldn't possibly outlast the quarantine, but I guess I was wrong. It might be nice to move to a nicer hotel while this is going on. Looks like we're going into November now. Still need to figure out how the DMV is going to work as well. And towing my Jeep. So much fun.
