Cleaned up the 203 transfer case. Changed the 30 weight oil while I was at it.

Shiny :buffer: I gotta do the same with mine… 45 years of dirt mixed with oil ain’t gonna be easy to scrape off. I need to figure out some nice degreaser

I can say that a wire wheel on a drill motor does a great job of transferring grime from the transfer case to your body. I looked like I had changed races by the time I was done. :D

There have been 4,668 days since July 11, 2012. That's when this topic started.

So if your kid was born at that time, he/she would be..... 13.

And if you bought a new car at that time, then its overdue for that first oil change.

And if you had purchased a new bottle of Scotch at that time, then its ready to enjoy.

Oh, and if you are reading this, then you should grab a beer and say cheers!
I don't think this one matters. If the Scotch were still in a barrel, the extra years would make a difference. Wine continues to mature in the bottle but whisky (Scotch doesn't have the "e" like other whiskey) is pretty much going to stay the same once it is bottled.

As far as I know anyway...

No, Scotch gets lighter with age

Installed my transmission temperature gauge today. The Autometer literature recommended a “short” sending unit if installing it in a pressure test port so as to not bottom it out. Install went with no problem and I took it for a 40 minute ride. Temps climbed to a bit under 210 then fluctuated a few degrees based on speed, hills etc.

I think for a non lockup th350 temps (within reason) are going to be what they are going to be.

Now with that said an aux cooler would not be a bad idea either.
