Debating whether I should change the X3d's oil today, or wait a couple more days for it to warm up some.
Motul 8100 X-Clean+ going in the crankcase.

Today I changed the downstream oxygen sensor on my 2006 Toyota Corolla LE with 95,288 miles. Yesterday the check engine light came on with code P0137

.

That is sensor voltage low. It failed the scan tool diagnostic too

I changed it with a Denso 234-4233 which is the OEM part. The original one I removed looked like this:

Cleared the codes and drove 10 miles. It works

Finished! Just before the rain started.

Today I resoled a well-worn pair of Timberland boots. The original softer foam soles had dry rotted and were falling apart, literally coming of in chunks. I resoled them with Vibram’s best 100% rubber, chemical resistant hard soles. I had to cut the old soles off with a Milwaukee hacksaw and smoothed with a sanding drum on the drill press.

The soles were attached using Barge’s rubber contact cement plus 11 brads hammered into each heel.

It looks pretty good certainly passable. The boots were clamped overnight for the rubber cement to cure.

Today is new power steering pump day on my 2005 Ford Taurus. I have a rebuilt Ford Motorcraft pump from Rock Auto ready to go in.

This week I helped my friend prefit a Mustang II style front end under his '49 Chevrolet truck project. The kit also includes brackets and leaf springs to update the rear end. He's using a drum brake rear from a '95 Caprice.

2001 Dodge Ram 2wd oil change in the snow under the sky

 

[wings&wheels]

Not auto, but removing a leaky rudder port for reseal and probably some fiberglass repair around the mounting hole. Every Winter I clean the bilge and by the next Fall it is nasty and slimy again...

Just finished installing a LED light on the front of my boys Raptor 90 ATV.

I restored the headlghts on my Gen 1 Tundra today using a White Diamond kit that was on clearance at Advance Auto Parts, for $4 marked down from $10. Here is the kit.

It is a single-use kit and was worth the $4. It has two towelettes covered with white paste that I suspect is a cleaning solvent and cerium oxide powder. Then after polishing there is a black sealant that seems to have a finer abrasive. You apply that and let it dry on the headlights then remove it. The kit came with a microfiber towel but I used my own.

Before

And after

I could see the yellowed plastic being deposited on the towelette

Pressure washed chassis yesterday with salt brine remover and undercoated with NHOU today

 

[TiGeo]

Going to rotate my tires front to back then swap out my rear brake pads for EBC Yellowstuff to match the fronts and swap out my front rotors for Stoptech Sport slotted to match the back.

 

[wings&wheels]

Since the crappy weather is here, just started the brakes on the 911; pads, rotors, sensors, flush, etc.... 58K on the originals.
