I decided to take this afternoon off to spend some time doing some car maintenance and repair for my new girlfriend (second grade oooooooh, with fingers pointed in ridicule). I'm doing a brake job.
This can go one of two ways: without a hitch or as I am better known, with several complications and spare parts after the job is "done". I can almost see my Dad wincing at the thought of me jacking a motor vehicle into the air to work on something. Don't worry pop, we learned our lesson about blocking up machinery at low low cost of some loss of function to my right hand. Long story.
I've done the research and read the material requirements, and I'm feeling lucky. So for the sake of my readers, you will either read a post over the weekend entitled: "Why we were unable to drive to the cottage this weekend." or maybe: "Greetings from Sarnia General!" or: "The weekend at the cottage!" which means I actually made the repairs and got the vehicle road-worthy.
Let's see here.
Replacement brake pads... Check!
Replacement Rotors... Check!
Brake pad Grease (not for the face)... Check
Step eight: Simply push the piston back to its full open position...
Piston?
Maybe Midas will get a call yet.
