wat

 

I tried memeing.
And I failed

 

Right rear missing lug nuts. Dirty clutch fluid. Torn cv boot. GOOD LOOKING TACO other than that

 

Yeah.

Well I fucked that up! Changed the spark plugs on the 4R, they definitely needed it. Going through and checking the few vacuum hoses and such to see what needs replaced. I have silicone hose left over from the Taco. Pulled the PCV valve out to make sure it was still good and cleaned up it. Then I managed to over tighten it when I put it back in and cracked the fucking valve cover! Screw in PCV valve. FUCK! So annoyed. So now I get to shop for a replacement and plan on doing that sometime.

In the meantime, I slashed black RTV on the crack, doing my best to push some into it. Then I backed the PCV valve off a full turn to let the crack close back up. Hopefully that holds for a while.

 

Yes, yes you did.

 

They already started spreading the brine on the roads.

Snow prep bruh

 

Regularly scheduled Fluid Film reliability testing in progress. Black op code name WINTER

 

The Avalon survives just fine.

Cause you are a fail

 

Suuuuuuuuuck. If you don't get result you're after, JB weld or similar 2 part stuff might do it.... At least you're competent, things break all the time, can you repair it? That's the question, and it happening to you sucks of course. But it would suck a lot worse for many here definitely not belittling your situation, just saying

 

Wtf happened to our sport/hobby..... All the innovative cool new stuff is great but it drives prices way high man..... Suck that

 

Yeah, it's a bitch, that's all. Gotta replace the valve cover now. Might as well do the gaskets on the passenger side while I'm at it too. They've been done once before according to the maint records I have. Just a pain in the ass is all. At least I don't have to pull the intake like on the Taco. Paint them red like the Taco too

 

No way! You were road tripping in comfort before it got too cool for us

 

My daughter just picked up the Sequoia wheels for me

 

Definitely a pain, that crap when it pops up unexpected like that can test patience
Yeah and you know the stuff to do while you're in there

 

Hmmmm...

To ADD or not ADD.... that IS the question

 

You would think, after all these winters, all the snow storms and bad weather, all the years that have passed by... You would think that someone would have come up with a less toxic (to vehicles) way of dealing with the snow and roads.

 

Dude, if you had a front diff, you could install your front drive line in already.
