Have a ratchet strap ready over the top of the motor so once you slide the lower unit on most of the way you can hold it in place with the strap. That can take the weight while you line everything up good to slide it on the rest of the way. I had to turn the key a sec to align the spindles so it would slide up.

re: Somebody explain the outdoor griddle phenomenon to me.
Posted by mtcheral on 6/20/26 at 5:47 pm to Bill Parker?
Not sure what yall are doing that takes so long to clean these. Just got mine for Xmas and I haven’t pulled out my Primo XL since. I cook multiple meals at one time on mine so it makes that process a lot faster than what I can cook inside in a wok or my cast iron. I basically just scrape the griddle clean while hot and then when it cools down a bit wipe with a paper towel. Rub a light layer of oil on and put it away. Much faster than the time it takes for me to clean multiple pans inside. If it’s that much hassle to clean, you’re doing it wrong.
Have you tried some dry needling and specific core and low back strengthening after? I’d be willing to bet this could make a massive difference for you. Many people have post laminectomy syndromes related to never regaining proper muscle control in the low back. I’ve had a microdiscectomy myself and have moderate to severe arthritis confirmed by MRI and I have 0 pain on a daily basis. Things changed massively after I had dry needling the first time. I’m a PT in your area so if you want to try it I can help you.
As someone who lived in Prairieville for a while and then Baton Rouge proper, we moved back to Covington a few years ago and we would never consider going back to BR again.

Seen quite a few in Pointe Coupee. They like to knock over deer feeders.
re: Low back pain and disc injuries - experiences?

You don’t have any symptoms of radiculopathy and if you aren’t going to get injections or surgery the. There isn’t much point in an MRI.
re: Low back pain and disc injuries - experiences?
Posted by mtcheral on 6/6/26 at 5:21 pm to JasonDBlaha
If it is truly a disc injury it’s still way too early to consider surgery, especially without nerve symptoms. It can take a while. You need to keep exercising and strengthening. Should try an inversion table or Saunders traction. If you do get an MRI then maybe an injection from a pain management doc would be appropriate to help get relief faster.

Quit stretching and get to strengthening. You are asking your muscles to do things they haven’t ever done and they are failing you. Stretching is temporary and actually makes you weaker doing it right before an activity. You need to do more of a dynamic warmup before running/jogging like some bodyweight squats, walking lunges, heel raises. If you want to do some static stretching for tight areas it should be done after activity or at a separate time.
Pentair replacement pump
P42BC0010A2-01 HP is the model number
Looks like you can get it for like $750 and replace it yourself. Cut the power to it and wire the new one in place of the old. Cut the power back on. They are charging you $1000 plus for that.

You get what you pay for. I tried them but they didn’t last long before they got all scratched up. Won’t buy again.

If you’re looking for antique, try The Bank in New Orleans. Lots of options. Can maybe call them to make sure they have some options for your specs.
re: Strained Lower Back Muscles - Peptides To Speed Up Healing?
Posted by mtcheral on 5/5/26 at 8:58 pm to Arkapigdiesel
Peptides aren’t going to magically heal your back. Something is wrong and the tightness is an indication of that. You need to improve your backs ability to handle your daily life and workouts and quit straining it. Go see a PT to see what’s up.
