Any warm up idling will bring your mileage down fast. Next thing, have you regeared to 4.10 yet? If not, ask Tommudd about how his mileage went up after he regeared.

Gave her a bath in the pay and spray. People were not happy behind me as I kept pumping in quarters... So much salt!

On a side note. The underside is much easier to clean with a lift!!

Re-loctited and tightened 2 torque converter bolts that were next to each other. Apparently 2 holes were dirty and the loctite on the new bolts didn't take. Cleaned it all out and tightened them down. Checked the other 2 and they were tight.

No more rattle-tap noise I can't find, even with the stethoscope. Yay! I can drive my Jeep again without fear.

On another note, I cannot believe it hit 71° here the Saturday before Christmas.

Took it out for a shakedown cruise. Yep, noise is gone.

Filled up the tank, took it through the quickie wash to get the mud & salt from my coworker's neighborhood off, went to the beer store and came home. Then cleaned the inside of all the windows.

All in all, a pretty good day.

Washed and waxed her so I can take her out to dinner for my birthday. If the wife does the same I'll take her too.

I had a Jeep dream last night and Tommudd went SFA now I don't know if I should tell someone before I eat breakfast or it will come true. Or may I should. I think it's only a matter of time. Maybe we should call you Tommodd!

Went from the ARB after 8 years, to the Matrix Brush Guard for a few months and now Rock Lizard ( yes I know there are wires hanging down from the old LEDs I had for turns/running lights )
