I replaced one of the valve cover gaskets on the old Nissan Titan tonight. When my wife saw the engine in this condition she said it gave her the vapors and that she was going to have to take to the bed.

This is a great time of year to scout for tulip poplar trees. Just look up and look for these dried up buds.
