Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Better than a crack bumper. At least it's funny looking.

O those x's won't come off

Nope. It's drilled and zip tied. I have a good black bumper in my garage, just don't have the money to spray it. Might try doing it myself this summer along with the hood.

Not a thing today, but last night was pretty fun. Hit up several bars and didn't make it home till daylight.

ahh the old zip tie stitches.. a "classic"

Oil changed.

When it comes to cars eating sockets, I always find and retrieve mine. GP's are a challenge until you learn. I could tell you guys how to get them back with minimal scratches and bleeding. It's a question of....how badly you want your tools back?

Drove mine with "LOW" on the DIC to work this morning. Ehhhh fuel pump loves me, 213K miles of use and abuse. One day..it's going to get a piggy back ride from me doing this crap.

Saturday I started one and moved it outside, cleaned the garage then swapped Steves transmission with him. Went really well. The whole time he was saying, it doesn't seem that hard... that's because it's really not hard. Remove a few bolts, swap a big part for another, put bolts back in, done.

Sunday got a call from my friends that they stopped at the package store (beer) and the car wouldn't start. They were on their way (2 hour drive) to swap the harmonic balancer and visit. Max, Mark and I pushed it to my house and into the garage. Tossed a spark tester on it, no spark. We then watched Rachael pull the balancer to find one bolt holding the interupter rings was beated and out of it's hole stuck in the rings which.... destroyed the crank sensor. Literally.. they couldn't have been luckier that they made it to the store. The store BTW is at the end of my road, 4 houses down. Once she replaced those parts, it started right up.

Next weekend, project white Regal.

That's the last year of the 5.7 right?

Drove the g6 to work. I miss my car, but having xm radio is sooo nice.


And I got a call from service shop that has my car....price jumped 200$ because the kid quoted me wrong. Grrrrr. I even asked for sure, even tho I was very clear that I wanted the complete quick strut.

Why aren't you installing your own struts?

tired to blow it up on the way to work, but it doesnt want to die yet

Because, I didn't want to. Don't have anywhere to get it inside to do the job and its to damn cold to screw with it myself.

Keep that cold there. Please

I'm over the cold too. Welcome to Indiana where its 60 one day and 0 the next.

That's why Rachael and Mark drove two hours to do the HB and crank sensor. Even an unheated garage is warmer than being outside.

The first of a long list of parts from various places came in today! Starting to get excited to tear into the car
