Waxed it and gave it an oil change. Lots of work for one day!

The interior is all cleaned out too. It's in "summer" mode!

Changed the coolant yesterday, put some chevron techron in the fuel tank then put some shell gas in 'er. She was running rough after I put the gas in and I noticed a consistent drip from the tee in the hose for the coolant. I replaced the tee assembly complete with a new cap and the dripping stopped there. I had a flashing check engine light first, then when I was able to stop the drip and leave it sitting overnight the check engine light stayed steady today. Took it by Advance to get the code read and it was a cylinder #2 misfire. A few minutes after I left Advance the CEL went off and everything was fine. Yay! I dodged a bullet!

But in all reality, I think the #2 plug/wire got coolant or water in it. Once the plug/wire had a chance to dry everything is well again!

I'm 650 miles away from mine at the moment so I didn't get anything done today. Just a long day of relaxing at the beach.

I buffed and detailed my blazer this memorial day weekend. I will say for 200,000 miles it still looks purdy. But I also blacked the all the trim. And I finally got my A/C working.
I think it looks good now... my grill and front chrome bumper have been painted since winter time. Also my rims have been painted since last summer. I give two thumbs up to Rustoleum satin outdoor black spray paint (but I did do proper prep work before paint).

Changed oil on it. 209200 miles. I was brainstorming on where to mount my fog lights I got. I took my grill off, and found parts of a bird carcass wedged between the radiator and the housing for it. No idea how long its been there but looks to be quite a while,lol. I have an idea for the lights but still not set in stone. Then found some mud on the way home, so it broke its one week clean streak,lol.
