Northern problems...

Turned the rotors and put some adaptive ones brake pads in my sisters bonneville yesturday. Then oil change today along with jerry rig fixing a seep on one trans cooler line, still seeps but is way slower from the looks of it. I'll replace the line later when I can get it in the shop at work. Stupid cars.

OK finally got it clear - anyone guess how???????????????

brake cleaner

sulfuric acid ? lol

took out the 180 t-stat today, hoping for better fuel economy, only time will tell

nope - brake cleaner doesnt work on the gauge portion, I cut it out
the red it the base of the gauge face.

Gave it a long needed hand wash, then made it a camera whore.

OK soaked the piece(of cluster face) i cut out in carb cleaner - and results

heavyd what are you trying to do? lol

4x4 suv, trash in the snow, false confidence for sure. will get you point A to B better, but you cant drive it like its on a rail. they slide real easy.

but a full size pick up truck, with a 8' fisher plow and 1000 lbs of salt in the back, is a beast. my gmc would start and stop like it was dry out. the 33 x 12.5 BF Goodrich all terrains had a lot to do with it.

now you know why i think my regal sucks in the snow.
