Nice weather here today in BG Ohio.
Just finished up some work on the Taurus and am enjoying a Redds Apple Ale.
Had bought some factory mud flaps in the fall but never had a chance to put them on. Today was the day. Had to remove rear wheels to do so. While I was in there I figured I'd give the brakes a check, this would be the first time I'd had a chance to really look at them since I just bought the car in September of last year. Found both sides had the lower guide pins totally seized up. Got them pulled out and cleaned them all up and lubed up. Took it for a spin, I can feel the rear brakes grabbing more. Tomorrow is the front. Hoping I don't find anything wrong.
Also gave the girlfriends car an oil change. Glad I did, that oil was black.
Now, time for a shower then some Mexican! Margaritas here I come!
