Ejection Handle Pulled
...on a Friday.
I changed my oil on Thursday and had a EGT probe acting up that I needed to diagnose while the cowl was off so I had EI send me one in case it wasn't just a bad connection. Fortunately, it was just a bad connection and EI said I could return it if I didn't need it (they're such good folks).
By the time I was done it was too late to ship so, on Friday I...
dropped the probe in the mail (priority) to Bend, OR.
dropped the oil sample in the mail (priority) to Ft. Wayne, IN
The probe arrived at 10:50 this morning.
The oil sample arrived at 9:44 this morning.
And I frequently do this on Fridays...they're quite consistent at gettting it there on Monday.
For $5.25/ea.
Try doing that with FedEx or UPS.
Many like disparaging the USPS but it's my experience that they do one helluva job especially with their priority and express services. During the week both packages would've made it in two days and for a price far cheaper than any two day service offered by the other two.
FWIW.
