Ahhh, a black car in the Phoenix sun. Weekend trip to the valley and the
temp was 117. Ecru interior, I hail thee. Car was sucking wind and liking
the 15w-50 (in spite of the recent talk of lighter weight oil... one day
after I buy 10 quarts of M1 15-50... *sigh*). An FMIC with misters felt
mandatory...
Brakes were really squealy in the heat. Brake dust was almost "chunky"...
could a few degrees (or 50) make that big of a difference in the pad
compound? I finally nailed most of the squeal with anti-squeal cheez whiz
but now I'll try again but go crazy with it on the pad backing...
