Put some new fogs in the car last week. I do a lot of highway driving at night. These seem to help fill some dull areas.

Got a lovely power steering leak, squealing wheel bearings (possible U joint), and exhaust manifold leak.

so basically once the first two are fixed within the next two weeks im going to be getting some shiny new headers and officially done "playing" with it and entering it in shows to possibly help pay off some things.

Did a brake job (pads/rotors) on a 06 Accord. Also put a new CV axel on the passenger side and changed the PS pump pulley.

Then I got to work on another flood vehicle. 2010 Tundra that will crank, but not fire. It'* getting fuel but no spark. Took out the ECU and took it to the dealer to make sure it was working right and that it hadn't lost the security setup. Also pulled the plugs and coil packs. Replaced the plugs and ohmed the coils, coils are good. We'll see where we are when we get the ECU back.

Checked the blazer out and found that the frame is rotted real bad. So took it back and got the 2 door one which seems better not as rusty. Tomorrow i will be checking it out better at work.
