Icy conditions on the QE2 and fishtailing

I guess Im the only one that checks the vehicle basics before a long winter trip:

- blankets in car
- peanuts/water/snacks
- candle
- spare cell phone battery charger
- tire pressure/condition
- cash on hand
- engine oil and fluid levels
- headlights
- portable power batter pack
- flashlight
- basic tools

Were not in fucking California, we need to do basic due diligence before long winter journeys. Serious risk.

I'm carrying enough stuff in my service truck, I could do an engine overhaul on the shoulder.

Compared more accurately to what we do professionally would be ‘doing an engine overhaul while driving’. There is no down time allowed.

Well after finishing at the Xmas party I came out to the car and found the front left tire was completely flat. I went to the nearest gas station and the air coming out while I was trying to fill it. So now we are at kaltire getting a potential flat but most likely a core change done on the stems.

Edit: ended up getting all the core’s replaced on my tires. The light went out for about 30 seconds and then came back on but none of my tires are leaking air now.
