300 mile checkup Car runs AWESOME! It has used no oil. I used GTX 10-30 full synthetic
Changed fuel filter and it idles smoother
Changed front brakes, one sleeve stayed on the bolt on the caliper holder deal though. It was placed back on and I was told to look into getting a new one but that it is not a problem...tech advice please? Anyone?
T-tops were greased. It leaked a little the other day in a 3 hour downpour (about 1 table spoon total per side).

SLeeve was healthy looking and greased. My tech told me buy a new caliper holder, bolts and sleeves. Is this necesary? The other guy said that it wasnt an issue. I am ignorant as to this issue. The sleeve came out on the bolt instead of the bolt unscrewing from the sleeve.

that sleeve shouldnt normally come out, but its not a life threatening issue.
was the bolt able to thread into the caliper mount like normal?
