Introduced the MK to mud yesterday - it delivered me and my photo gear in the heavy rain to photograph a Mudderella event nearby.
Today, it hauled some bags of dirt.
Then I washed it... so now it should rain shortly. :gr_grin:

And I think I've got one of the IL-LOST guys that's going to give a home to Eugene - he's coming over tomorrow. Makes me feel better about that - he doesn't plan to part it, it's going to be driven. :)

I planted some stuff today, so I was kind of looking for Momma Nature to help me out with the upkeep. Wouldn't you know it, now there's not a drop in the forecast. :emotions34:

I finally swapped out the belt tensioner on my 05 Renegade. Also cleaned out the throttle control as it was full of gunk. The Jeep runs a lot better now, however it still shudders a bit when going from a stop start. Once its out of 1st gear it seems to go ok. Im outta ideas as to whats going on.

Not a cloud in the sky. Rigged up a trouble tree today that's threatening the shop and the wind picked up and just keeps getting rowdier. Five calm minutes and I could have that birch on the ground.

Sounds like that wind may take it down for you.

My 'not a drop' turned into a small shower (so far) this evening... it's all because I washed the Jeep. Everything according to plan. :D

Congratulations on the shower, new Jeep, and invite.

I've learned I can make the wind blow just by thinking about it... another useless talent.

Room for patience with the tree. Ropes, pulleys, and weight can just hang there ready for awhile. Probably be calm in the morning.

Changed the front brakes and rotors on Saturday.

Had organics pads and the rotors were warped and her stopping power sucked. Replaced with new shiny rotors and ceramic pads. She stops far better now! next up is rear brakes. :gr_grin:

So im 90% sure I have water in my fuel which is causing it to run like a sick dog. Can anyone recommend an additive to help remove impurities from fuel? Obviously draining the tank and fuel lines is the sure fire method but if I can avoid that id be very happy!

This is the "what did you do to your jeep today" thread. You'll want to post these in the General section.

Watched the pollen collect on it like snowflakes... I think we had more pollen than snow this year. It was actually hard the ride the bike with my visor open the air felt so gritty.
