  1. I carved/finished a background for this tank a while back, and never really used it. It temporarily housed a couple beardies, but hasn't had anything in it for a year. Prob best for desert animals, but will stand up to moisture and is completely nontoxic.

    Going to ask $150, but will listen to any offers. I'll get better pics when I make it over to the storage unit.

  2. I'm sure it was probably an honest mistake, and I'm not looking to raise a ruckus. Hell, I didn't even call them, or mention their name here.

    As for taking things to the shop, I do 90% of my own wrenching (last thing being a full suspension upgrade), but never really do oil changes anymore. Seems as though you can get it done with specified materials cheaper than buying them sometimes.

    Anyway, just curious how common it was.

  3. I had my oil changed about a month ago. A somewhat local shop did the work, but they are not a vendor here. I have always had decent luck with them, but I have not had them do that much work on my car.

    So, yesterday I noticed a bit of an oil puddle in my driveway, upon quick inspection, I noticed that my transmission pan etc was covered with oil. Upon further inspection I figured out that my oil filter was very loose, to the point that I could grab it with a couple fingers and easily give it a full turn or more.

    Now, I know s*** happens and have no intentions of throwing a fit, but I may not go back in for service there as I have slightly questioned it before. My question to you is, does this just happen occasionally, or was the filter not tightened at the shop? I have never had one become loose to the point that it leaks before, and had this thing vibrated off and bounced down the highway on my trip to Cincinnati yesterday, I would have been pissed.

  4. A coworkers cadillac is throwing this code, and upon startup it will idle poorly, making what I can only describe as a panting sound. (literally like a dog)

     

    She had it scanned at autozone and the code showed a "secondary air injection system fault"

     

    Could this be an emissions problem? What the hell is secondary air injection? I'm not familiar with Northstars, so let the google searching begin.

     

    Thanks,

    Shaun
