Lot'sa pumping

I got the poly that Dodger gave me out of my Blazer and onto the engine 
stand today. Paul Lenneman said my engine hoist was leaking off and he 
was right !!!! I had a heck of a time. I bled it and checked the fluid 
level and all is well there but it sure lowers rapidly if you're not 
pumping it and you have to pump like a maniac to get it to lift. I 
recruited my wife to pump on it while I put the floor jack under the oil 
pan with a few boards for heigth. The floor jack helped it have enough 
power to lift but if I went too fast with the jack the engine would fall 
over. It was exciting but we prevailed. Guess I'll have to get the hoist 
repaired or get a new cylinder. 

My wife had to take the Blazer to the dentist today with the poly in the 
back. Need I say she's glad to have it out of there?
