Not a damn thing, drove to the library to finish do some work and had to lend my mother my van which every time she brings it back there is something new a scratch or something, nothing I can do about it because I don't want to kill the bitch in a fight. But anyway, for now I'm just counting down the days until I go back to Florida. I have a bus load of work to do. Replace Filler Tube Replace Torque Converter Replace Door Lock Mech Re-glue rear view mirror Replace rear suspension (leaf springs, bushings, bolt, plates, etc...)
Rebuild Entire A/C system, involves flushing and replacing of expansion valves, filter drier, o-rings, seals, fasteners, rebuilding of compressor, salvaging of piping (all rusted so I have to remove rust in and out and paint after clean), so on so forth)
I also have to take the seats out and clean all the dog hair and throw up spot or spots up off the carpet, clean everything. Clean and wax outside of van.
I may be purchasing a weight distribution, I am pissed because I wanted to buy a new tool but I don't want to wear my suspension premature with towing that heavy trailer I talk about. Always something and never enough time or money... Life...
All this the above is just for my van...
Then I have another vehicle, my mothers car I have to fix. Needs new wheel studs and wheel nuts Hyundai Elantra so pain with the hubs. Needs who knows what else.
Then a customers dodge van. Needs transmission overhaul so I'm going to be busy with that.
Busy busy busy I tell ya.
