Mileage report

[Vette81]

I have 115,612 miles on my L81, I have only driven it about 22 miles since 2002, I recently replaced all four brake calipers because I let it set to long. I had better get in gear and get the old girl in shape for the Cruise Fest at Bowling Green in June!

I don't think your reply compleetly belongs in this topic Bill but I'll give a quick answer.

It should be enough to change the round filter only. The problem I have is that i still don't know how to get inside the canister..

Back on topic!

Groeten Peter.

Geesh guys, I'm kinda takin a thumpin here, my wife and I are with her elderly father every night. My weekends are consumed with everything that I can't get done during the week. I do squeeze in 9 holes of golf on Wednesday but last year found some doof leaning his golf bag on my vette while he changed his shoes so I'm reluctant to drive it there.

2 years and 2 months I will offically pull the rip cord and give up my full time job, hopefully there will be a golf course that needs somebody to keep the ball washers full.
