Or it could be the belts. The humidity has been high lately, belts tend to "sing" in this weather.

This is true.

This is true.

Yeh, mine sing for 4 or 5 minutes on the way to work, I only drive 9 mi. Only when it's this cold, then it lessens some.

That's a thought, I didn't think about that.

Is it a serpantine belt....has it been changed if over 100K miles.....is the pump a high fail part on that vehicle.....was it a re-manufactured part when installed last time or factory new. It does make a huge diff.

It was a new pump, but that belt prob has 150K on it.

Hell, if a car doesn't leak something or make a squawking noise how do you know it's still there?

 

[SEIndSAM]

Good.Having and some INGO time.
You're staying warm?

 

[SEIndSAM]

Yeah, it's been mid-30's today, not too bad. All of the snow went north of INdy.

Supposed to be in the 40's & 50's later this week.

It's 48 here, almost too warm to wear a winter jacket.

The foot is okay?

Yeah, it's doing better, I walk without a limp now. But it still hurts sometimes, kind of surprised because it's been 4 or 5 weeks.

Wife is packing boxes to get into the mail tomorrow, she is stressing because of that.

Postage is so danged expensive. She has a box that is not that big that is $35 to Seattle.

I know.Just sent some stuff to Indy last week.
I actually found some cheap options and managed to send it cheaper.
Even the people at my local post office were not aware of those shipping options.

We dropped about $100 on shipping this year. Maybe next year we will just give shipping for Christmas.

 

[Sylvain]

It must be some heavy boxes your wife is sending.
It cost me less than that to ship up to 4.5 pounds over the pond.

That's a plan. Wife is sending gifts, clothes and a pair of boots to her daughter in Seattle. She left a bunch of crap in our attic and now needs it.
