Yesterday I allowed my wife to vacuum out the floorboards and clean the windows.

Earlier this week I changed the motor oil and filter, using good ol' Walmart Super-Tech full synthetic 5w-20, and a Purolator filter. Still zero oil usage after 80k miles.

I had to replace the washer pump on my '96 Chevy dually earlier this week. It was $20 for a Trico pump at O'Reilly's.

Aired up the tires and the suspension air bags in preparation for my short trip to warmer climes today.

Not a bad price for a water pump!

Washer pump, not water pump.
We put a water pump on this truck about 12-14 years ago.

Folded the tow mirrors back down, thus converting it back to my "daily driver". They'll go back up soon enough!

Parked it at Imperial Dam LTVA, 20 miles north of Yuma. Left it hooked up to the TT, and just dropped the tongue jack and stabilizers. I'm not going to drive for the next few days, so no sense unhooking and hooking back up. Thursday I am heading down to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, so I can look across the border into Mexico, among other things.

Gonna wash it next week. According to our 10 day forecast, it's going to be in the 50's & 60's Christmas week. Must be El-Nino! Maybe we'll go camping instead.

Rotated the tires and adjusted pressure. For some reason these wheels like to stick on the hub, need a little persuasion to get off.

I picked mine up from the Diesel shop after having it towed there on Monday by GSRS.
Picked it up today. Bad Fuel Injection Control Module.
Diesels are expensive to maintain!

Be sure to have your vehicle batteries checked. Low voltage makes the FICM (Fuel Injection Control Module) work harder and may lead to premature FICM failure.
This year, at 2,000 mi of our 8,000 mi trip, had to replace all 8 injectors; a large unplanned expense. I knew three injectors were marginal and hoped they'd last the whole trip. Nope. Just lasted the first part.

Smiled at her. She's not my daily driver and she was washed last weekend. So she is still nice and clean.

I've had a rattle in the front end of my truck for some time and I thought the idler arm had some play in it so I replaced it today. The replacement looked fairly easy based on YouTube videos but rust and the use of the wrong pickle fork really complicated things. After all that, I the rattle is still there.

Drove it to the store and bought a 12 pack of Miller High Life in bottles. My truck is dirty, but in spite of that, it can still do important work!
