While I think your plan will be fine if it was me and my state made it easy to dispose of old gas I would dispose of it. We are only talking about $25 worth of gas. I would not want to mess up my car's fuel system for $25 in gas. Maybe an old pickup with a carb. Pour some in a clean jar...

Get pure silicone grease.

Replace the rotors or your will shortly replace the new pads again and the rotors. New pads will not wear the rotor smooth.

Yes I agree on clamping a flex brake hose does not sound like a good idea to me. I am not one to clamp a hose to block the flow.

I would have thought dealers and most Indy shop would only replace or resurface the rotors as they make more $$ and don't want people coming back saying the brakes are not right after just a pad slap. As a shade tree mechanic I typically have new rotors on my shelf but will do pads only if the...

Get a diesel, no spark plugs to change.

The EDID is basically the graphical capabilities of the monitor. But the EDID also means there is a monitor there able to be used.

So there is an option in Windows with multiple monitors something like "save monitor display options". So assuming that's not checked how does Windows choose the default monitor to display the desktop? I am thinking it goes through all the video ports in its priority order requesting an...

I attend many meetings daily over Zoom or Teams. Never use the camera. We all know what everyone looks like. Typically what is on the screen is a document not video pictures of people. Some have a photo of them saved as the picture to display.

I am 73 and only work on things I wants to. Oil changes and no rakes. The rest go to a trusted Indy.
