172k. I'm sure it's toast but I like taking stuff apart and i'm not out anything but an evenings work if it still doesn't work.
It is definitely fun taking stuff apart. Like when I changed the starter motor in my 335. What a PITA! I curse that one bolt in the back of the motor! Three inches from the firewall. WTF, BMW?!?! But I got it all back together and believe it or not, it works!

A flex head wrench is the key there.

Ya! I found that out later. Plus the universal size for that F... er.. what I meant to say - FINE E-torx - I just bought a set of ratcheting ones from Sears and they are very nice.

I'm trying to get our hardwood floors refinished but for whatever fucking reason getting someone to show up and give me quotes is like pulling fucking teeth. It shouldn't be this hard to spend money.

It always seems to happen when you want something done you can't give your money away nor will people show up if you try to give them extra money

I'll take any extra money you have laying around...
Hardwood floors should be a DIY. You'll save a lot of money and learn a new trade. That's why I put my own tile floor in my basement. OK, it was a PITA, but I learned a trade and also learned why I don't do that trade for a living...

I've got no issue diy'ing stuff but our hardwoods are 100+ years old so i'd like to not fuck them up. That and my August/September is packed between work and 4 weddings. One guy did get back text me after I sent him pictures. $3 per sq ft to refinish the floor and it's about 500sq/ft.

That's actually not a bad price.
