Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Sad but better than dead.

 

I was thinking about cleaning the inside of the truck out but made a poll instead after this storm rolled in.

 

Woo-Hoo, first vote.
Ginger needs a good cleaning in and out. She has been on daily duty since the brakes acted up on the van -- which I'm too busy (lazy) to fix.

 

I try to not let anything stay in my truck cab for very long. Usually clean it out when I get home. My wife’s car on the other hand, is always a disaster it seems like.

 

Same here, I can’t stand having stuff laying around in it. The dirt on the floor don’t bother me. My wife’s car, I always have to move stuff out of the seat when I get in

 

Need a "More often than monthly" option - for better or worse, I'm a bit obsessive about vehicle cleanliness. If the inside goes two weeks without a thorough wipe-down, dusting and vacuuming, it's very unusual. Wife's Mustang on the other hand... it's a little more relaxed.

 

Also a few randoms of our camping trip to the beach this weekend. Sorry none of me posing like @six5crèéd

 

Great photos! What beach is that?

 

I thought once a month was excessive

 

gold beach on the Oregon coast.

 

I figured it was somewhere west, we don’t have rocks around the beaches on this side.

Oh and thanks for no posing pictures

 

Yes! The ladies, what the heck...

 

My truck has needed cleaned for a year now. I just always get caught up in something else. I want to pay someone to do a deep detail of it inside and out just to have a clean slate. then I need to buy a pressure washer.

 

I do under the hood just as often.

 

My stupid fuel door hinge broke, which is apparently pretty common. Check yours and oil em!

(Not my pic, but this is what happened.)

 

You couldn’t feel it binding before that?

 

Its been binding for a long while. It's been rusted and bent, but not a lot you can do once it gets to that point. Gonna keep some spray lube in the truck for this from now on. $30 at my local dealership for a new door.
It was rubbing really bad today and I tried to bend it up to clear and it just gave out.

 

I’ve always been able to get those loose before they broke. Just takes a little finesse. Sorry for your issue

 

They’re as thin as an aluminum can they feel like anyways.

 

Installed a pressure washer pump manifold…. Customer never drained it and winter cracked it. Anyone know if I need to add some type of pump oil or some type of lubricant?? I gotta rebuild the carb yet but rather not hurt anything else ….
