    Dude, I've been off since 1130 and it's my Friday.

    Don't know what else I have to do the rest of the day :laughing:

    On a real note, I'm meeting up with @eon_blue for a little mod party to take care of some much needed maintenance.

    That'll include the fuel filter I've got sitting aside as well as the cv axle seal.

    If I was at our new house already, parts would definitely get installed. Just not going to do it here in my in-laws driveway; it's fucking immaculate without a single drop of oil or stain.

    Fuel filter as easy on a 3rd gen runner as it is on the tacoma? I always thought it was in a nice easy spot

    I'm pretty good about not getting too much splatter on the driveway, but then the girl that rents the guest house next to our backyard had the rear main seal give out on her Civic, which of course dumped oil all over the place lol. So I don't care quite so much anymore.

    Definitely is, but it's in the list of "I don't wanna" :anonymous:

    Figured it'd be easy knocking a ton of small things out at once.

    Yeah, I've got "bored day" kits in the garage filled with non critical parts I should change. The LC one is actually getting really big

    My buddy’s driveway has 3 large oil stains from the 3 months I lived there. Machine shop ruined my Ramsey winch and it was pouring oil from the mounting bolt holes when I took it out of my truck. Flatbed transfer case seals blew out from clogged breathers, and something else.

    But he dinged up my driver fender on the 04 so I call it even.

    all this talk of non critical parts

    Maybe I should try and do the tie rods and drag link on the ford this weekend and get it aligned next week before I make a bunch of towing trips.

    On the other hand my 2 front tires are almost shot and I have a set of newer take offs to put on anyways

    Most of the big oil stains, even from our neighbor's seal failure, have all but disappeared over the last couple years...they eventually go away at least on our driveway.

    Ours is pretty old/darker concrete though...I imagine if you have a nice white concrete it would never really go away.

    I've tried the kitty litter "trick" and it does jack shit, at least in my experience

    The only substance that works is Simoniz Ever Zorb, grind it into the stain and sweep away after 30 mins

    That's smart, plus it would give someone like me less anxiety if I knock things out per section...

    Yeah his house was built in like 2015 so they wouldn’t clear up with the different cleaning methods I tried.

    As for the kitty litter… I just spread dirt on my oil/coolant spills and shovel it in the trash the next day.
