Thanks. I figured it deserved a good wax after a summer of beach riding. I decided to wax the insides of the doors, the roll bar and the door sills, so I figured it would be a long day. Cranked up some Molly Hatchett Greatest Hits on iTunes, grabbed a 6 pack of Miller Lite then went to work. Didn't even get to finish the 6 pack!
The Tundra in the background though works the crap out of me to keep the paint looking good. I can't keep black streaks off the paint. Unfortunately it does have to sit outside in the sun and rain, so I guess that is the issue.
More interior window trim, in oak.
I did! It was the screen assembly and top lid as one unit. It was not terrible with the right tools and a little patients.
Oh and here was todays project, new thermal paste for the 15 inch MacBook Pro with dedicated graphics. I used arctic silver 5 thermal compound for the cpu and gpu. Runs 20 degrees cooler now. Old paste was dried out and flaking.

Great job keeping these old beasts alive. I've worked on a couple Macbooks and they are easy to work on with a bit of moderate difficulty.I did! It was the screen assembly and top lid as one unit. It was not terrible with the right tools and a little patients.

Replaced kitchen faucet for my aunt.
Are you saying you take the tires off the bead and re seal them every 5,000 miles??? I’ve never done this in my life besides when mounting a new tire.
Yesterday changed the oil filter and resealed the valve cover gasket on the Focus, it looses a quart every month so not worried. Today is changing the oil on the Dakota and Escape, almost forgot and it's been a year.
A little late Saturday changed sisters oil... 18 toyota ch r out went iffy lube bulk synthetic and a service champ filter in went 0w20 super tech paired with a Mobil 1 filter
2000 Camry 4 cylinder engine cleaned the IAC. Actually pretty easy to do on this car, but unsure how long this is going to last.
Brakes all the way around on a Nissan Sentra SR. Thank god it doesn’t have electronic parking brake bs
Out running errand in my '11 Tahoe 130k miles and get back in the truck and no gear selection. ***, of course it's raining also. Cable end popped off the trans. arm. Popped it back on and got home OK. Pulled arm off the trans. and drilled a hole in the ball end and put a pin in it like they used to do it in the old days. Darn quick assembly snap on stuff that's part of the cable assy. , at least there was enough of the ''ball'' protruding out to do the classic fix.
LF tire repair including a balance on a 2011 Caravan.
Rear pads and rotors on a 2018 328d xDrive. NAPA delivered Fremax rotors, never used them before, I hope they're decent. Packaging was different, that's for sure.

Quad bikes today. It came in for no charge and a power steering fault. Put in a new reg, and the power steer fault is tight ball joints overloading it. And so wheel bearings and brakes too as always.
I'd like to know what the two connectors coming off the brake booster is for.
Not sure. Maybe post that in the Tundra forum.
