Went to the cemetery to plant mums at Sweetie’s parents grave, then off to Fort Erie for a coffee and a walk, drive back home, cleaned the interior windows and windshield, I musta forgot to do that the other day!

Window wash jug is at the firewall, above your flex hose to your air box.
Pretty sure that was a joke. But better safe than sorry.

Replaced the dreaded leaky fuel line today. GM should be ashamed of itself for this. Bean counters obviously won the day on this design.

There is an open NHTSA investigation. I’m saving my receipts in case action is taken. Easy to file a complaint on line. Pretty sure no one has died yet. The power steering and ignition switch problems caused a number of crashes.

I drove it to a trail to go for a walk, then drove it home, I checked the oil, coolant and topped up the windshield washer fluid.

The flex hose for the air intake is on the passenger side inner fender and the washer fluid reservoir is mounted to the same inner fender.

Today, a trip to Costco, then a stop for a coffee. Then home! Just in time for lunch!
