BRZN Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 There was a small dirt trail across the gasket right where the pan was leaking. I've got 100 or so miles on it after I installed the new gasket with no signs of any leaking. I believe I got it taken care of. I'll know for sure once spring hits and I can dive it more.

Ls1transam Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I applied Glass Sealant and Boost in the direct sun just because it says not to lol. I wanted to see what would happen. So I tested it on my old truck that gets maybe 500 miles a year. Instead of doing half the windshield I broke it down into quarters. I had no issues at all. Applied a sticker on my daily too lol. aaronc1 and BRZN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LT1xL82 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I believe I've finished all my winter Mods... Front Sub Frame Dropped to allow access to the oil pan and a Fel-Pro Gasket was put in place to stop a pesky oil leak between the block and oil pan. GM Service Manual states motor needed pulled, Ha! Dave, that's one serious model car! Really nice work. Top shelf all the way! The engine support bar sure is a slick piece. Neat! BRZN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Slow Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) I Rinseless Washed the SS. When I cleaned the exhaust tips I remembered I hadn't put anything on them so I treated them to some wheel coating. I did that on my ATS4 and it kept them real easy to clean.

TheWolf Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Replace two disk drives on my PC. Increased the external backup drive to 2TB, and swapped the data drive for a Solid State Drive. The system drive was already an SSD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Slow Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I dug out the Briliant Glaze from the basement and loved me some SS. After the wife returns from running errands her Beast will get a bath. Right now the Durango R/T if covered in salt and road grime.

SumBeach35 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Pressure washed the car at the pay n spray then a Rinseless wash followed by Patriot wax. First time using the Patriot and I must say even in 30* ambient temperature it still hazed up in a decent time frame. Not sure I like the light blue applicator though. Seemed a bit too soft. 8675309'SS and ocdrifter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc2hill Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Saturday I attended a detailing event put on by another retailer. I did not pay much attention to their products, but did get to see the fine folks from Grit Guard, tried out all the Flex machines, all the Metro Vac machines, and also all the Rupes machines. I also took a few classes taught some very knowledgeable detailers, And got to catch up with Sizzle Chest and AudiX2.

LFairbanks Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Cleaned the garage a bit. Changed two carburetors out on my lawn equipment. They start super easy now. Drained the gas out of the snowblower and ran it dry to put it away. Changed the blade on the lawn mower and cleaned the old one up so that I can resharpen it and balance it. Mowed the lawn. Next weekend will be a detail on my trashed DD. Anybody that is having issues with stuff not starting you can probably buy a new carburetor on Amazon for dirt cheap.

Rich Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Went to Wal Mart in another town today. Nothing else to do. This weather sucks, and it's going to be a couple more days till we get warm enough to melt the latest snow and I can work on the daily driver. Vette is staying under wraps for another couple weeks at least. I WANT SUMMER! BrianT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcaineer Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) Absolutely BEAUTIFUL day today. Had to do some chores vs clean the car, though. So, I built and installed/replaced a 48" gate (6' cedar privacy fence) at a rental property of mine. Also added a new lock to it. Didn't finish till after dark, so no pics just yet. May add some later this week. Edited March 20, 2017 by falcaineer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_c579 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 So I finally received the foam gun I won from Srtowen's giveaway on instagram and I went ahead and gave my car a wash before I left my home town. I, however, was not the only one that had fun with the foam gun and I even got my youngest brother into it. Love that Adam's shine I get after every wash! trim.34118997-EDDA-4FC9-8EB2-C4FC428B417A.MOV Maddie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
