I worked on the car on Saturday. I replaced the last coolant hose that needed replacing.

I’m very happy with Online Mazda Parts. They sent the wrong hose (it had the right parts number but was bagged wrong) so I called them to get it right. They sent a new one right away with a return slip for the old one, no questions asked.  I’ve been ordering all my OEM parts from them and I’ll continue to do so.

I also did some more cleaning under the hood. I pulled the battery tray and painted it. I cleaned a bunch more grease off the motor.
