This morning I got my CHMSL working again.
All 4 previosly installed LED's were dead.
Not any more.
Now I get to investigate an annoying steering wheel rattle.
I believe it's in the intermedaite shaft.
Let the fun begin/continue.
Oh yeh, passed 172k this weekend.

just left Hippo in his place
We usually have cold winters, but what I see outside the window is beyond decency.
-35C (-95F) brings sadness. It's good that now is the weekend and I'll save my transport.
His Japanese counterpart refused to start 2 weeks ago. This is geared towards the Japanese market and will not drive in temperatures below -25C (-77F) without special training.
American cars start and drive, but they don't do it well. Frozen oil will not lubricate the engine and the pistons will scratch the steel. The rubber parts turn to plastic and crumble into fragments.
My losses these 2 weeks - the rear shock is leaking, the oil pressure sensor is broken and oil is pouring on the snow.
Blankets on the hood and cardboard around the radiator do not save the day. The battery is also on the verge of death, although it is insulated with an old jacket.
My squaw's Ford also suffers losses.

Have you thought how we win wars? Enemy equipment simply cannot move on Russian soil for half of the year. At least east of Moscow.

-35C = -31F

The crossover point where degrees F and degrees C are equal is at -40 degrees.
