Snow tires on and snow storm coming. Bet ya can not guess what I will be doing later!? By the way what company would use a brass drive gear to power the transmission in their snow blowers? MTD!!! What idiots.!!! A BRASS GEAR!!! really? This was designed to fail and cause people to spend money on parts. There is no other explanation. The gear oil poured out GOLD in color due to the gear particles. For a moment thought I was rich until I looked at the gear. Video to come.

With the cold weather I am curious as to what is happening with the heat in Lullubelle. Having some minor difficulty finding the right setting on the heat. It seems that when I have the defrost on it gets rather warm then when I turn it down it does not quite shut down the defrost to change to the floor only. After a little playing it eventually changes but still not much heat at the feet (see a poet) anyway I will work with it some more but the controls for better lack of terms feel sluggish.

To get to the actuator is always more work on one side than the other :) But, the dash does NOT have to be disassembled (at least in the 2007).

I will have to check this out further on the blend doors. I get a lot of air in the door vent that blows on the drivers side window and the defrost works well also. I just do not feel much at my floor vent on the drivers side so I am assuming I will have to check the floor vent blend door actuator to so see if it is moving and working properly. I have not checked the passenger side floor vent yet to see if it is blowing air also.

My cheap Harbor Freight work light barely used I might add bit the dust. It stopped working so I bought this 60 LED light with hopes that it will work better and provide me with more light to work on the Edge and also make enough light to allow for better videos. We will soon see as I have plans to use it yet today to go out and do a bit of battery maintenance work on Blueberry. Blueberry has a battery cold and has boggers on her terminals so I thought I may as well clean her up a bit.

Darn HVAC fan under the dash started growling and whining while I was driving in the snow storm. I eventually got tired of hearing it so stopped at a rest stop and opened the glove box and pulled out the filter to see what was going on. Checked the fan (yes it was off) stuck my hand in and the shaft and squirrel cage plastic was in good shape and no movement. Checked the filter and although looked to be time to replace I did not see much of an issue. Spun it around multiple times backwards and then gave a few hard whacks (technical knocks) and then put it back together. Stopped making the noise and is quiet again. I might of mumbled something at it about getting a bigger hammer so maybe it decided to straighten up and do what it is told. LOL
