How to replace a scooter's rear brake shoe

Lately, I've noticed that my rear brakes are not braking as it should. The stopping power has diminished to a point where I rely solely on my front disc brakes and rarely use the ones in the rear.

Makeshift Fuel Tank/Can (to check fuel consumption)

Time to test my carb's new main jet - to see this - I am going to check how far Voxy can go on just a liter of fuel.

Replacing a VW Carburetor's Main Jet

I've always felt that Voxy guzzles up gas like it's water. VW fuel gauges' tend to give out inaccurate readings - at least mine does - and I've paid for it dearly by having to walk several miles because I thought she still had some gas :( I was left with no choice but to resort to the unconventional but tried and tested "peek in the tank" method to see if I still have fuel left. I think I'm just being paranoid but whenever I take a peek in the tank- I end up asking "where the heck did my gas go?!?"

What's with all the bull*****... I mean fuss? ( A handyman's take on the Cybercrime Law)

Much has been said about the recently implemented RA 10175 or the “Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012”.  I never really gave this subject much thought until recently (I’ve been so busy with my projects). I realized that this issue is huge since aside from being the subject of numerous articles for weeks now, there are currently 8 petitions filed against this law. You can’t even go online without coming across this topic – and this has made me curious. What is this really all about?

After hours and hours of hard work - I believe my Lancer is ready to hit the road once again!

 
 

Here's a quick look at some of the problems I had to deal with. I also had to work on the interiors, center console, the trunk, etc. etc. etc. Whew! :)
