The fluid is a little low. So I'm gonna buy some stop leak fluid probably tonight and I have my brakes wheel bearing and another package at my house sitting
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
Ace I bet if you put pads on it you won't need a drop of new fluid. +1 Kyleosaurus Russ.
Nate that looks a lot better. Mine is bug-eyed with one lamp sticking out because the black bracket is patched up. I need lamps like a hog needs slop.
NB02, those are gonna improve looks for sure. I'll be watching for pics. My headlight ideas are still too retro at this point,lol.

Nope she took fluid. decent bit too I pushed the sensor in to make sure it was in all the way. Hopefully get brakes done this weekend they arrived at my house today
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
You put all new brakes on and still needed fluid? That's what he meant. Then there may be a leak if it needed more.
I've had a leak since I bought my car, the aluminum proportioning valve on the drivers side is corroded badly. That will get replaced before winter.
Also not my car but helped put all the components on a 3800 s/c for a riviera. The engines class rebuilt the bottom end after the intake gaskets took out the bearings. Also did some work on a 87 turbo 3.8 regal.
Re: What did you do to your Car today?
Did not put brakes on yet. And I probably do have a slow leak somewhere

Be prepared when you do change your brakes, you'll want to suck some of the fluid back out. When you change the brakes, you push the piston in the caliper (to make room for the new friction material on the brakes) and that will cause your reservoir to overflow and spill brake fluid everywhere...which eats paint and such.
An old turkey baster works great for those types of things.

Put a civic in his place when he tried to pass me. Then after my car cooled a bit I changed 4 plugs I'll get the other 2 tomorrow.

And did a sloppy Collinite 845 application until I can get real on it.
Made the mistake of looking at it with a led flashlight when I was done.

Nice. I used to spend a lot of time on FSB. My Bronco rotted out and the F-250 I had sitting here for a few years with big dreams in my head, well, I sold that a few months ago. Don't have the drive to 4x4 these days. Still got a mountain of parts that I don't want to get rid of. LOL
