Ever in search of the perfect state of tune for his Tinker Toy engines, my son Ryan asked me to help "adjust his valves" tonight. Might have something to do with the fact that he just watched me do just that on my 427 cobra. With a little trial and error using some Pam cooking spray and some 3-in-1 oil, we got his bad boys running like champs. I sure wish he had gone with a hydraulic cam. Still, I like the way he thinks!

Note the Nerf rifle in the background of the 3rd image. My boys loved those things too. There mother was finding the darts everywhere while cleaning...

Isn't that the truth?!? My wife hates our Nerf wars.

Thanks for the comments, guys.
