Drove it for the work commute. Made the 100 miles a little more enjoyable. We had a little snow storm so I decided to see how she would do

I replaced my starter today. What a pain in the ***! Not because it was difficult, but because all the Damn mud that kept falling in my eyes! Last time I played in the mud was this summer. I would have thought it would all be gone by now!

I unhooked both hoses from the engine, blew them out with a10psi air hose, put the clr in the bottom hose till it started to enter the top hose, let it sit for 10min and blew it out with the air hose at 10psi again and finely flushed it out with water for a few min
