  1. Or adjustments and learning how your car likes to be raced is cause to drop .6?

    Really?

    I was thinking the same thing...
  3. I agree, I run 93 octane in all cars I have owned. It keeps my Knock down to get the most out of my tune. I was going to suggest with a P0171 you have some sort of vacuum leak.. Glad you found it.
  4. Nice, that front end really pops up!
  5. 180 days till crush.. In order to receive federal reimbursement for the subsidy consumers get for trading in their cars, dealers must first destroy the engine. One common method is to drain the car's oil and flood the engine with sodium silicate, or liquid glass. Dealers then turn the car on and rev the engine to let the solution harden. In just a few minutes, the car becomes inoperable. Once the engine is dead, a recycling lot can take possession of the car. From that time, it has 180 days to sell the pieces of the car that retain some value. Even though the engine's a lost cause, everything from the scrap metal to the hubcaps is available to buyers. When the resale period is up, any leftover parts must be destroyed, and the government is notified that the car is gone for good.
  6. Seizing the motor was a requirement. The 2 dealerships I worked at had special liquid glass sent to them to destroy the motor. I know some just drained the fluids and ran it. Some of the techs at toyota dumped in a cup of metal shavings from the brake lathe.
  7. Yes, dealerships had to drain oil and add in liquid glass. Blow them up, then they got crushed so no parts could be takin off.
  8. Cash for clunkers completely fucked auto mechanics. Yeah cars sales went up. But what about the blue collar's trying to make money? Cash for clunkers was the worst idea.
  9. I noticed that when he was stuck in the grass :lolguy:
  10. Yeah, just my nikon 55-200mm
  11. :lolguy: I did grab the camera, but due to being so far away my 200mm was maxed out, photo looks like shit. http://i477.photobucket.com/albums/rr133/probin007/bird4.jpg That was the bird that was in the nest the whole time, dad has a "mohawk" looking thing, he was the one getting the worms I thought.. IDK.. This is who I thought dad was http://i477.photobucket.com/albums/rr133/probin007/birddad.jpg
  12. For those that care, the dogs were in the back yard playing last week. And I saw them jumping at the swing set, so I went out to look. The bird that couldnt fly yet, was on the top of the swingset.. Chirping away.. and then took off flying.
  13. I didn't even see you at C&C. We left Easton at 8:50
  14. I dont think any picture can capture just how clean and well put together this car was.. Here are a couple of mine.. http://i477.photobucket.com/albums/rr133/probin007/junecar5.jpg http://i477.photobucket.com/albums/rr133/probin007/junecar3.jpg http://i477.photobucket.com/albums/rr133/probin007/junecar.jpg http://i477.photobucket.com/albums/rr133/probin007/junecar4.jpg
  15. Yeah that car was bad ass.. I snapped a couple pictures after the crowed got away from it.. And the drive from Easton to C&C was very spirited... Clay was hanging with us :-P
  16. gt500 is sexy.. I guess they're buying a new ratchet strap, after running it over..
  17. I had a AEM wideband in my Ram, and worked great.. I have a AEM wideband in my Jeep, works great.
  18. Great shots, my wife likes #6 among others. I wanted to go to coshocton to the hot air balloon festival this weekend. But have other plans.
  19. I know you already picked a2z but above and beyond also works around your schedule. He came in on a Sunday to do my jeep.
  20. A couple weeks ago, no one showed up... The last one I went to there were 5 or so people..
