I changed the oil, greased the chassis and all U-joints. Then I pulled the front tires and did a brake inspection.
Adjusted the back brakes, changed the fan belt, and reset the stereo.

Well technically it was Friday, but I re-gapped my plugs and checked my plenum...which is still not blown. My Autolite 3923's had burned to about .045 from .040 after about 11K miles...but they looked good and are burning right, so I am pleased.

I prewired my off road lights and tested them. I drove through some mud and went to work.

I changed the rear diff fluid, seafoamed it (driving down the road with a huge cloud of white smoke, then seeing a cop roll through it RIGHT BEHIND ME. He didn't pull me over, which amazed me). I also had the timing chain swapped out and a new water pump. Next stop: Plenum. I gotsta get me a Hughes plenum kit and associated gaskets/bolts.

I'm hoping the timing chain will help pick up the MPG a bit. It had gotten pretty dismal.
