Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

WEll.....yeah

He's breathing fire and wearing sun glasses, so it's cool. Everyone looks cool wearing sun glasses and breathing fire.

While....driving a bonneville

Center bumper fog lights for the winnnnn

Sooo the guy in the fuel level sender vid....

Here he is..

lolololol

I found that tube with odd cap that screws onto the top of bottles (similar to funnel) works great with PS fluid.

Took the blower apart I'd bought the other day. Wasted two cans of carb cleaner trying to get all the carbon deposits out of the inside of a blower I'd bought off Craigslist. Didn't even come close to getting it all. I gave it up as a bad job

You shouldn't try to clean the rotor chamber.

Tore it down to replaces the LIM gaskets they were trashed now I'm trying to find the ambition to put it all back together

i kicked one of them out of my way today, not even kidding.


drove a roll off for a few hours in the pouring rain, fun times. then last night my friend and i took his old mower engine off to install the new one.

guy said the exhaust manifold would bolt right up, using the old engines, guess what? NO! so as long as its of, we made sure the pulleys fit the shaft, and they did, so the next thing was do we need to dril new mounting holes or not? the guy on the phone said it bolts right up, but he also said the muffler would work........bingo! 2 out a 3 aint bad. "que music"

so i had to take that new motor off and put the old one back together and mount, and bolt all the little crap up. when the exhaust manifold and muffler come in....we can do it all over again lol

ill have to take a few pics of the 2 engines side by side, one of the reasons we did a test fit, the new 22 is huge next to the old 19 hp. the 22 is like a big block, and the 19 is a small block lol

On vacation this week, so took the car in to take care of the "it might cause a fire" recall.....




No more mailers from GM.

What changed? Lol

I bought it oil and one of those plastic oil drain pans after i backed over my old container I was using with the trailer today.

Then I forgot to stop at oriley's to get a filter.

they gave him a new v/c gasket and some new plug wire clips.

funny, i dont see nice new blue grommet mushed out from the side of the bolt.

P0036 - HO2S Heater Control Circuit Bank 1 Sensor 2
P0141 - HO2S Heater Performance Bank 1 Sensor 2
P0171 - Fuel Trim System Lean Bank 1

those are the three codes i'm pulling now. and i think all of them are related to not having a rear o2 sensor in. i got the front one installed finally. extended the stock wiring. also found the two exhaust leaks. one i don't think will be hard to do but the second is going to be a pita

Well the work truck is officially on 6 digits. Hit 100k today. Boss is supposed to go get another truck this weekend from one of our other stores. No idea of the mileage or condition. Hopefully it was kept up.

Boss said when we get the other truck he will take this one and have a 100k service done on it. He said he got it at 25k and all he ever did was have the oil changed so it's probably due.

Ya, I'd never pay for this minimal amount of work. I'm a GT, so only 2 new plug wire clips were installed. Here is the before shot.....




You can barely see the mushy grommet; it was replaced May 2013.
