Thanks for the tip on the ground concerning the wiper. That can be my next project ;). Also, as far as snow, one benefit to living in the South is that we don't have much of that!. Though rain is a bit of an issue, especially in Mobile. Been a bit of wet Christmas for us.

Alright, just finished installing the part last night. The good news is, I believe the shutoff valve has been recently replaced. It has a good, crisp click when turned and when I removed the line, there was zero leakage from the valve. The line itself was just a bit off (maybe a millimeter or...
