What are you doing today? [Part II]

After being a long time Adobe suite user, I've been meaning to branch out into other software packages. Had heard of DaVinci Resolve for video editing, as a free alternative to Adobe Premier, and since I needed to do some video clip splicing this morning, downloaded it and gave it a try.

Took a little bit of time to figure out where things were, and how to get from point A to B to C, but I got there after poking around. This is my last day off work, since the 2nd week of December, so have to remember to go to bed on time, so I'm not dragging in the office tomorrow.

Went to replace the leaky seal around the fuel level sensor on the XC70 and made two unfortunate discoveries. First, & foremost, the lock ring was not tight!! This is the first time it has been checked in 18 years so it was either loose from the factory or the o-ring seal has shrunk. Second, the opening for the level sensor is below the top level of the tank. Consequently, since the tank is almost full (naturally) as soon as I start to loosen the lock ring gas starts coming out. Decided to tighten up the lock ring and drive off some of the gas in order to bring the level down below the fuel sensor opening. Fortunately, access is very straightforward from the floor of the rear seat so I did not have to drop the tank or remove excess interior stuff.

It's short lived but the cold is back. What's normally worse is after it's done, the cold that blows back over from the south east is worse.

A buddy is coming by early next week to pick up some hunting gear and we are planning a sled ride.

The other day I used some light silicone spray on the starter pully bendix. I use the term bendix as it's a cammed pully sheave that engages a pully to the flywheel. Anyways, they always stick so it's just easier to pull start. Well they freed up quite well. They now crank over very well.
