I got 4 new Michelin XPS Rib tires installed on the dually drive axle. The tires on there were about 12 years old and even though they looked great, I didnt want to take any chances. I also got the annual emissions test done and it passed with flying colors.

The tires was a smart idea. Blowouts suck. Ask me how I know.

New carburetor for my Onan generator. It was getting hard to start, then wouldn't start. Now it starts and runs like new. Chuck
