What did Oppo do this weekend?
I changed all four O2 sensors on this new to me Tundra. Only one put up a fight but ultimately it lost (thank you impact).
I also changed the spare tire carrier because the cable was looking sketchy.

I went to a Remembrance Day ceremony yesterday, did grocery shopping and cooked meatloaf today, and did some photography (plenty of which was garbage, some of which was not).

Went to pick up some somewhat rare OEM Toyota Enkei’s for my 4Runner. They’ve seen much better days, but I think I can restore them a bit. They were free, so...

I changed the oil on my wife’s car. The filter was so slick (and also mounts to the engine upside down... gosh darnit), I dropped it in the drain pan and it splashed some dirty oil on my driveway. I would have been more upset if it was the first time I’d done that.
Also topped off the brake fluid on the longbed. I had driven it yesterday to find the pedal went all the way to the floor. I don’t know what it is, but I have to top it off every 6 months. I’ve never been able to find an obvious leak. But brake fluid is cheap, and the reservoir only needs a few mL to fill up, so I shouldn’t complain.
I also bought some things for the IS. Still trying to figure out a solution for my dash that doesn’t involve replacement, but prospects are not encouraging thus far.
Oh wait, it continues. I completed gutted my Taco, and reorganized all my work stuff. It’s been a 3-day project, still not yet completed. I also hopefully fixed a leak in my canopy, due to the degradation of the gasket material on the driver’s side front corner.

I competed in the last SCCA autox of the season. I came in 3rd out of 10 in my highly competitive STX class and 8th out of 137 in pax overall (10th in raw times).
My co-driver didn’t show up and I really could have used a tire warmer, he seemed to miss all the events where he would have been useful. I’m either making him pay for the whole season upfront or getting a different co-driver for next season.

Cleaned a couple of cars.
Owners were happy. One is to be a regular clean (neighbours daughter) and the other an occasional clean (neighbours daughter’s friend).

I checked the oil on my TSX and drove it to my mom’s house. Otherwise, not a thing.

On Saturday I went up to the lake for the last time of the year, and then hauled out and winterized the boat. Today was Mustang and F150 service day. The mustang got a tire rotation and oil change, and F150 a tire rotation, oil change and fresh air filters. Tomorrow will be my weekly golf game in the afternoon (I work a 4 day, 10 hours/day work week, with Monday as my 3rd day off).

Helped pull a couple boats out of the water and scraped and partially cleaned, once the power washer was unfrozen.
Also blew $1,000 on new tires and cleaned the house.

Fixed a broken tail lamp on the F650GS, replaced the bulb which was out, then installed a new master brake cylinder and flushed all the brake fluid on the LX450.

I call it a successful weekend.
