Well we were. I said we were suppose to be on the movie set at 5AM with Das Bus to do a scene for this film they are filming in Houston.

I go out and get in the bus to go get gas and the bus is not running very well. It's bogging down in all gears except for 4th and the oil light keeps coming on.

So we pulled the spark plugs and one plug is solid black with liquid all on it. Also there is a rocker arm or pushrod sound or knocking on the right side of the engine. Wan't there before. Are we about to lose our motor? I am concerned to drive it to Houston in the morning as I'm afraid I am going to throw a rod as the RPM's are low. It runs and idles and goes in 4th gear fine. Oh well Das Bus might not get it's movie tomorrow due to concerns of the engine problem we are having.

Would any of you know what we should check? Thanks,

Hmm. Hopefully that's not oil on that spark plug.

Not sure what it was really. Took the other two plugs off and cleaned them up. Started the bus and it ran like a champ all the way into Houston. They just used us for the highway driving. Closed off most of the freeway for the shots.

Then they were going to eat lunch and then head over to the older part of town for other shots. We were let go early as well as you can see from our Bus it wasn't the older type car over in the ward district in which they were going to go film at next. Other than that it was a fun experience and would love to do that again. Check out the photos. Pretty neat stuff that goes into making a movie. Maybe I should change careers from Photographer to Film.

Oh on another note that Square that was there that you can see in my pictures is the Pier 1 SB that was on their catalog and online. It will be for sale soon if anyone wants a square. Nice one.

That's pretty neat!

I'm glad the motor is ok. Congrats on the movie
