All reved up

Our Ford Focus, nicknamed "the jok-us", got a new valve cover gasket this afternoon. The old one was leaking because the rubber gasket had hardened. No more oil leaking onto the exhaust and smelly smoke. I washed the engine and engine compartment afterwards and it looks good under there.
The joke on us, was after we bought the car with the factory tires, could not drive in the snow before we moved. The backend fishtailed all over.
I will check to see if there is snow in Indiana when we make the trip to see the grandkids, Gianna and newborn Veda.
