Transmission service

[Chukbacca]

This state is so embarrassing.

I think Valvoline direct will sell it to you shipped free plus free hat, but it is like 35 a gallon which is more then old market rate. Amazon looks like it ships as well cheaper as well. The number one place to get this was Walmart, now not available anywhere in CA, If you get some, might want to think about storing some and order again.

kind of a bad ass hat...

I cannot disagree with you about the weather. Respectfully as Californians, we are just lobsters in a pot, and I would suggest that many if not most who have left the state would agree.
Sadly, I do not share your optimistic vision of California’s future

Burla,there is great light coming. It will get bumpy for awhile,just hang on. By the end of the year,it will be a different world.

I did the transmission service. Thank you for the recommendation for Valvoline direct.
I utilized a B & M pan as PPE did not seem to have anything for my model year/engine… I suspect it was an oversight, but I did not want to deal with it being incorrect mid project.
I was thankful that it was nowhere near as bad as I thought…since I have the 3.6, I had plenty of room and didn’t have the exhaust heat issues

Yeah-that’s what I figured. The B&M was the same price so I wasn’t too concerned.

Downside to the B&M pan is the gasket it uses,keep an eye on it,as it has a bit of a rep of leaking after awhile.

A lot people moving to Tx I guess ...have you looked there as your next destination? ...he he

Texas is a different state from the get go. We are the only state in the US who joined the union by treaty, bot being annexed by decree.
We are one of only 2 states in the US with homestead protection laws so strong in the protection of the homeowner.
There is no state income tax, and so many other things good.... but those damned hurricanes and tornadoes! GRR!

Other day had tornadoes east and west of me. Duck, cover lol

Tx has by FAR the most tornado's. Well at least they *usually* don't sneak up on ya. Around here when they put out imminant Tornado warnings, everyone goes outside and has a look...ha ha. It's true. 9.999 times out of 10 nothing materializes. The night time ones are the worst though!

We had one sweep through and clean up some machinery as a kid. Missed the house by 125'.

And the media just HAS to go to THE deepest flooded area and compare this set of storms to Harvey! Talk about stupid!
