2:33 I don't know if anybody remembers that i was complaining, for years that the cap to my Elantra's transmission cannot be taken out. I even searched on google and found a video with a guy who filed it on a side. However one day when i had the air cleaner removed i tried with an 3/8 extension and after a little wiggling around it came out pretty easily.

If  you look from above it seems it bumps into the shiny part above, however, if  you take it out, there is room to pull it on a side.

Nobody knows how to check transmission fluid level on these cars. So i applied the symptoms method. I add until it stops low fluid symptoms (last being just a bit of hesitation). Today i added one more hundred ml, getting close to a quart since the lowest level after i flushed 1/3 of the whole fluid, twice, when i applied the dripping method of checking ( long story).

Today i did it in about 5 minutes and wanted to share it. With two extensions and a long corrugated pipe, without even taking the air cleaner, which would have lasted more than  half hour.
After i was done i checked the catch can. There was a bit, less than an once of emulsion there, like normal for the 500 miles i did since i cleaned last, when there was 100 ml and i suspected there was water in gas.

After doing so i checked for dog poops, came inside to get a bag, i was out of bags and grabbed a piece of wrapping foil, and when i went outside i noticed this vaping smell, went to pick the poop, the foil wrinkled, in the ended did it and when i passed the garages i saw around the corner a guy smoking pipe who looked exactly like Trump's judge, smoking pipe.

The one i have been searching for 24 hours and couldn't find it, like it took me 3 days to find Steve Harwell. Some are hard to find, some are easy. Some have few pictures and not always good and some have tons of pictures you can choose from, like for Asta.

2:47 We're heading up north and i hope Angela won't loose again all of her overtime money, like she did in the last 3 or six months when winning seemed mission impossible. Very few winning hands for the last 6 months to one year. I don't know what's happening, years ago we were pretty balanced.
