Changed the air filter on the walking mower and mowed a little before the heat arrived.

I tried to clean the new bumper up yesterday evening at around 8:00 it was still 97 degrees.. Id spray the bumper, put down the hose and go for the soap and the damn thing was already dry. Finally gave up.

Cavalier is down now. Shifted into reverse backed out of the driveway put it in drive and noticed the shifter went into drive way to easy. ends up it was still in reverse.

After some research it looks like its a very common problem and the bushing's rott out.

With that many miles, deserves a breakdown or two. At least you have a back up.

Upgraded my garage tool box today. I decided to go ahead and make an investment and get something I really wanted and that would last the next 20 years or more.

Is he going to be a Flat tracker or Speedway rider, either way he has the lean down, now just a little more counter steer and he is GTG!
