Neato, Had that exact radiator leak on the Wife's Accord, I guess those transmission
coolers are installed pretty much the same, Her car now has a NAPA radiator, and
that is the one that had the leak.

Naturally, the second video of yours I watched was titled "squirrel". - Very cool....

that was a cute little fella, very social, as I am sure must have a million human visitors along I-10

it was very humid, in the AM and I think the camera must have been cold from riding in the truck, causing the condense on the lens.

Dude, you're about as predictable as I am. Not much has changed about my interests in about 2 decades, and that's most of my life. Well, I got away from some interests but made my way back eventually.

That squirrel is an unusual one, normally we can't get near them.

Yah, Squirrels ain't stupid, they know humans are bad news.....

I thought I should replace the brake fluid, started by sucking out old (1/2 way) and replacing new, did that a few times until it was reasonable clean.

tried bleeding rears, did not want to flow, I got some out, no air, but way too hard.

fronts bleeding went as it should.

Did some research, seems lots of folks have issues getting rears done.
not sure if its the RAB unit but I assume so.
Not sure if it needs some speacial device to plug in (read that somewhere) or if its just bad from years of yuck fluid (rust).

the rears had VERY little wear so I wonder if they are working at all. Of course I did replace the shoes a couple years ago, and do not drive the car much and I know how to drive so brake wear is low in general.

I have most of my general maintenance on my vehicles, done at a tire and auto repair shop. Oil changes, alignments and tire repairs. They also do brake work.
I inquired about replacing the front pads on my daily driver, a 2006 Toyota Prius. They said that they don't do brakes on any Hybrids. Brakes are related in Hybrids, to the regenerative system. The brakes only lasted 186K miles!

got my driver side door handle in, looks like it should be an easy fit. Hopefully better made than the orig, since it broke years ago. video to come on that.

Door handle in, boy that was easy, pull the door panel, grind off the melted on plastic studs, clean up holes, pop in new panel piece, used steel clips over new studs, replace panel, done. I have been fighting that stupid broken handle for 10 yrs easy.
