    Brake fluids

    I usually do fork oil because I'm needing to change leaky fork seals. I always make it a complete tear down and cleaning. Having gone through fork seals way sooner than a recommended fork oil change it's easy to see just how fast and dirty fork oil gets. Brake fluid looks good longer but likely...

    Brake fluids

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Where to get a puppy?

    I remember being horrified when I read that Arctic explorers would all deficate in the same spot so the dogs could feast on it. Talk about dog breath.

    Brake fluids

    Dot 5 Dot 5.1 That shouldn't lead to any confusion. For two totally noncompatable fluids could we not at least have chosen another number.
