I'll be there but Kyle probably won't. His mom is coming into town Friday night for the weekend.

Is there a rain date just in case it's bad weather?

 

[bazooka joe]

(dunno) not yet....let's see what happens...

 

[altspace]

Damn...so late in the season. Looks like rain too. In either case I'm out for this date folks.
Got a Halloween wedding to organize.

 

[bazooka joe]

really josh? i think a couple yrs ago we met 2 weeks before thanksgiving...the weather doesn't look promising anyway, maybe if we reschedule??

 

[NETC_Redd]

BAH! I've been waiting for a meet forever...!

 

[CTt3P5]

Bad weather? Guess the weatherman is changing his/her mind eh?

I'll keep an eye for a re-scheduled date....

 

[bazooka joe]

Will cut down on Mark's water usage. lol

 

[bazooka joe]

we can't really wash anything if it's raining, we could do some mods/repairs so thats fine, i know jeff and chris have some work to do...we could do the cleaning part another time if it's not too cold....let's see ehat happens towards the end of the week. i have to do my timing belt and water pump, but i probably won't start that sat because would lose that bay all day...

I was thinking about doing a drain and fill for the tranny but not sure about the mess it could make..... I have heard it can be rather messy and wouldn't want to muck up your garage with the fluids.

Oh Yeah. But the that was we were changing the valve body and I think it was overfilled?

I'm game.

Alrighty then, I'll bring the stuff. I need to stop at Autozone and pick up several more qts of Mobil1 and get a new filter as well. Which container would be better for this?

Part 11838 or 11837? http://www.autozone.com/autozone/catalog/accessories/accessoriesShelf.jsp?itemId=1035-10&parentId=1311-10&displayName=Oil+Drain+Pan&currentPage=1&navValue=101035&categoryDisplayName=Oil+and+Fluid+Change&_requestid=1656654

I have three 11837's currently (two for oil and one for coolant) and not sure if the 11838 would be better for when the pan is dropped?

 

[Astral]
