Ignition and fan switches were both getting flakey. Swapped.

Passenger pads done. Driver caliper seized :(

NSS and rev lights done. New amber done. Front marker lights on ignition. I'm a Christmas tree!

Needs some ties clipped, overflow balloons replaced, fluids checked, fluid and tool storage populated, hi lift mounted.

Suck down broke in transit. Ratchet straps to get out of trailer and repaired. Fluids storage refilled and packed.

6th wheel procured, not mounted.

All seemed very well running across the street to get the wheel. I missed prerunning by ~90m. Smike and matt said there are some surprise puddles and some new trails. Hope it's a good race!

Power washer makes for a much more thorough cleanup but I don't think it's any faster. Maybe less work and more fun though.

300 out the door for a 6.5hp gasser from HF. On sale, minus 20%. It is every bit as powerful as any coin op self wash I've been to, very pleased with it.


Still not running perfect. I swear I hear another vacuum leak but I can't find it. Starting fluid can't find it. If it is a leak it has to be a gasket or I ring.

I'm very used to that stuff with paint sprayers with a draw straw and priming output, what's the proper method to get that shit where it needs to be inside a power washer?
