What did you accomplish today?

Sometimes you are just low on refrigerant, check those pressures first. I just had to top my Civic's off.
Oh I know for a fact it wasn't that. I had it checked. If the fan isn't working, it cant pull fresh air through the coil. That's why it cools while you're driving but gets hot when you're idled.
Good idea...I'm a total student of youtube, thx Gary
no problem at all

If it only runs hot when stopped but cools off when moving it could also be something with the radiator up front only cooling when there is air is rushin through meaning maybe fan up front is dead or sensor to control it is dead or flow is not happening inside and through the motor of the coolant due to some faulty sensor switch or thermostat. just an idea for you in case it's not what you said. I work on cars quite a bit. Drive a classic that 's alway havin wierd issues. Last one was, the water temp switch at the bottom of the rad went faulty, and the rad cooling fan would run non stop all the time while key is in the ignition, not going on and off as it should, sure it's ok for super hot running days having cooling fan non stop, but coolant runs at certain temp, and fan running non stop can actually cool it too much and your whole motor runs cool like you just started it on a cold day idle up.. anyway, switch from dealer, 220$ FUCK THAT found it for 35$ from small car shop..lol.. fixed. :)

I tried to mow the lawns. The mower had a different idea...View attachment 3967245It crapped out half way. Don't know what the fuck is wrong with it though.

And yes. I know the lawn is long. That's what happens when no one brings back the mower for two months.

Looks like the new line trimmer might have to finish the job.
That's an extremely feminine mailbox.
