On The Road Again...

Yes, this past Monday Gretchen and myself made the journey up to Orland Park to pick up a car...a car that was literally given to me!

I know how you feel about the slow tire leak, one of my back tires basically goes flat if I am not driving my truck for a couple of days, and stays use able for about a week to 2 weeks before I have to pump more air into them.

eventually I need to get them replaced with something better, something that doesn't leak, and something that can actually handle icy roads and snow.

that and replace my brakes... possibly check another part of the turning mechanisms that are a little odd at the moment, and add about 100 pounds to the back of my truck just to improve the handling..

other than that my 94 ford still runs like a champ

as for the slow leak a temporary fix would be to slime the tires, don't know if you have heard of the product but I plan to use that myself over the summer to hopefully get another year or two out of my tires before I really need to replace them.

i actually got the slow leak "fixed"...and by fixed i mean i paid twenty bucks for them to tell me that the tire was old and needs to be replaced. Oddly enough, the can of fix-a-flat worked just fine...go figure

Isn't this what duct tape is for?
