Not sure. Died like a switch. Icp connector is melted, code for a CPS and they just did injectors but didn't torque them at all

Good morning everyone. I need to go rearrange my garage some more today. There just isn't enough room for all the arcade games.

I am on the search for a place to get my car windows tinted. I would like my car interior to stay cooler, especially with all the HOT leather in there. Any opinions or suggestions?

I used tint master in Wethersfield on the Berlin turnpike.its a bright yellow building across from Cumberland farms up near hooters. I did 2 vehicles there and have sent a bunch of friends there too. And like most places that tint, cash gets you a better price

Yeah I've heard they're pretty good. Tint on this truck seems a little darker than my old one, but maybe it's not dark enough cause my truck still gets really hot even with tan interior

I went to a few today, and I think I am going to A-Plus Auto on the turnpike. Price was good for 3m product with one piece rear window. Planning to get it done next Saturday morning.

Rack of ribs cooking slowly on the Weber.
They took a dry rub and sat in the refrigerator overnight.

The foil wrap is now on, and the 'Q' is reading ~135*

I'm going to be here a while...

Tomorrow I tear my axle out to replace a hub seal (and the shoes)

Good luck with that Jim.

I'm washing the two trucks and cutting the grass.
Then I will take the rest of fathers day off.

I hope to finish early and spend some time w/ my dad.

Just need to get this done and have no time during the week.
Not a big deal, but I don't want to **** the neighbors off with an impact wrench early Sunday morning.

It's a beautiful evening down here in the 'toe',

I spent my time this afternoon giving my car a much needed wash. Thanks for all the arterial fungus, Brendon! Came out alright, but it certainly shows its wear, being a car with 68k miles on it. Tomorrow is breakfast with the outlaws and family. Oh right, IN-laws. I could use some more nice days like today.
