  1. A skilled mechanic works on a vintage V8 engine in a dark garage, surrounded by car parts and tools.

  2. Had to run to the mall last night, took the #Kia.

    On the way there, rear pax brake was dragging.

    Coming back, that one was fine, but front pax brake was dragging.

    Not sure what that might mean ~~ Maybe lines? Maybe ABS module? Coincidentally gummy or failed calipers?

    Guess it needs to go up on the jack when the weather improves :S

  3. Making a #spectacle of himself - this chap (a #mechanic in #Kent #SE #England) is wearing #RayBan #spy #glasses for the purpose of his #YouTube video.

    He is carrying out the relatively harmless act of covertly filming buying 5 litres of #petrol (garages often don't like you using mobile phones) to take back to his workshop and check there is 5 litres in the can (indeed there was - not sure what he was expecting to happen, Trading Standards regularly check filling stations!)

    I've got 3 spreadsheets and notebooks of receipts since 2019 (spanning 3 different #cars) where I've been monitoring fuel consumption and I've found nothing to suggest that petrol pumps across East and SE #England are delivering anything other than correct amounts (within tolerances that #TradingStandards allow)
