Which Silicone?

**Steve** · 24th August 2006, 10:23

Someone just swore at me

A guy asked me for some advice with his Classic KISS as he knew I was a Classic KISS man from way back. He was having troubles removing the counterlungs as they were sticking to the breather. I suggested silicone applied on the inside of the lung mouth and a bit on the breather as well. He said he didn't think that would work and after me reassuring him he said he would give it a go.

Fast forward a few days to today and I get a phone call from a man that seemed to have tourette's syndrome. He had to the best of his knowledge followed my sage like advice and was having even more trouble removing the lungs. The tool had used caulking silicone

Mistype ?

To remove a stubborn CK CL, the "pop a straight screwdriver" method works best, but I would hesitate in sharing that over the Internet as well...

If he ever comes to you and says he's considering having children, swear to us all you'll stop him...

There are those that just need a bit more descriptive detail than others.

His reluctance to see your silicone idea as a logical suggestion, should have been the first clue that he wasn't thinking of the "slippery Kind".

Perhaps it would be wise for him to stay a bit farther away from water untill those other brain cells come back from holiday.

A bit more cultural exchange that will make you cringe Phi.....

A 'tool' in Australia is a slang term for the male member so to speak. What else does one go to work with? ;-)

Hi Steve, you know no good deed goes unpunished. What a moron this dude must be! What low quality of people are are buying CCRs these days? Maybe this means we've finally hit critical mass with CCR ownership and the lemmings amoung us will start diving over the cliff. -Andy
