***pause***
I forgot to mention that when I change my oil I take some of the old oil and refill the oil-bath breather over the carburetor. If you're following along, don't forget that step!
***play***
With all the parts in place we took off the breather cap

Because it takes 6 quarts and one jug is only 4, we emptied the first jug into Cecilia then filled it up to the 2 quart mark from the other jug.

Powder puff put the cap back on while I jumped in to start her up and circulate that new oil.

I had forgotten that I had the hub apart. Guess what I always do when I jump in any vehicle?

Pump the brakes.
Without any drum on them at the moment.

I had a heck of a time getting the spring off the brake shoes off but by prying the spring off I was able to fix it. I reached in and poked the rubber innards back inside the brake cylinder. Then I slipped the piston back in, finally I put the rubber boot back on. Hopefully it'll still work. We'll find out when the hub is fixed.
No pics of all that because I was scrambling like an idiot to get it back together.

Sorry guys.
I did finally get in and start her up. Purring like a tiger! (pic taken with key in ACC position, so oil light is on - dont freak out!)

With that done I can focus entirely on the hub parts issues.

Some people are like slinkys. Not worth much but funny as heck when pushed down stairs.
