An old fart only gets better with age like a fine supercharger whine.

Welcome unavailable.
I thought I might have a free weekend coming up, but my son might have nixed that. Hoping he has not caused catastrophic engine damage to a second Cavalier. I'm too tired tonight to mess with it.

Hope it's not serious Rick. My son called me yesterday and said his brake pedal was going almost all the way to the floor and sent me this pic. Then my wife called and said there was a puddle of oil under his left rear tire. I was hoping to have an easy Friday afternoon. Now it looks like I'll be doing a rear brake job on his truck.....UGH!!!

My son thought the reason his oil light was on was a bad sensor! Needless to say he destroyed the engine!
Of course he wanted me to fix if.

Talk about car shows, going to the Good Guys annual car show at Del Mar which is in San Diego. Over 2500 hundred classics and hot rods and rat rods, so much fun and a lot of eye candy.

So, would it be a horrible thing to take my 2015 Camaro with ceramic treatment through a car wash? Being SO old, I don't feel like using my old age energy to wash this car every time it's semi dirty. I haven't taken it through a car wash ever and am thinking it's best to keep it that way. I'm just wondering if anyone else does or has.
I use a couple of seemingly decent ones in my area but on my leased 2016 Impala LTZ with that pearlescent white paint job. Always looks good and I finish off the drying and wheels myself. Also I'm guessing I'm posting this in the wrong way or something.... Thanks |

Just passing through. Hope to see you all at Camarofest. Plan to attend with friends from Gateway Camaro Club (St. Louis). All the best!

Hi new guys!
My son handled his repairs himself. Took it to a shop, they diagnosed it, and $270 later, it's good as new. Nothing major, and he paid for it himself. I was hoping to finish the front brake job on my Dakota tonight. Even stayed home instead of going to a car cruise. But finding a correct front wheel stud for it is becoming challenging.

Looks like we get to spend some big $$ replacing our AC system, which involves 2 outdoor compressors and 2 coils upstairs where the furnace and exchangers are. AC systems last about 10 - 15 years here in Phoenix, and ours is 11 years old. During the past 3 years, we've had to do some repairs to they AC, so it is probably time. I'm getting a mini-split for the garage too. Gets HOT in there during the summer, when I want to work on the cars.
