• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

What did you do to your Car today?

I got the 3 pod A pillar gauge holder, the HUD dual gauge holder from ZZP and I just ordered a Prosport performance series mechanical boost/vacuum gauge, the Prosport digital series air/fuel gauge with voltmeter and air fuel pigtail from ZZP.

Just for clarification, its not the caliper bolts themselves, but the bracket bolts. The ones you have to remove to change the rotors. It happened around a week later if I remember right. If I looked back through this thread I could tell you exactly. LOL

For me, only one backed out, but that one backing out, along with the rash of other incidents around the same time is enough evidence for me to use lock-tite on them for now on.

Yeah I figured it was the bracket bolts. But yeah, I don't blame ya. Now you got me worried about mine lol. Hopefully I won't have any bolts come out and if I do... I have 12" rotors now so it pushes the caliper and everything right up the inside of the wheel, not really much room to jam.

not in this city you can't. Unless I haven't found it. And I've been around Memphis. But yeah in my experience, I've found no ethanol gases in small rural towns (for me it was in Arkansas). yeep.

Ya its hard to find gas without ethanol here aswell, My reg gas station has upto 10%.
And its crap that they shove that **** down our pipes.

It kills mpg.

And they say its American Ethanol, but alot of it comes from china - liers!!!!!

Yea that is very true. Ethanol free is awesome but its 10-15 cents more expensive per gallon

They're free from a junk yard. I snagged 4 of em last time I went and picked up those bigger sized caliper brackets. So. If I lose one I have spares :)

Who buys bolts? :th_shakinghead1:
 
Changed the oil in mom and dad's van and was supposed to change a water pump on a guys elantra but on the way to my house his car overheated and he kept going until it died on him and wouldn't restart. So a $100 fix for him turned into a possible new motor
 
I did too if I wanted it to start after 4 or 5 days sitting.
Last year in November while I was in Vegas/Pahrump it sat at the airport for about 12 days. It started after turning over about half a turn. I don't think it had much more in it. I had a jumper pack in the trunk just in case.

replaced the stupercharger oil that found its way out of the breather. (parking on hills passenger side down for extended periods of time...not recommended)
 
I really need to change my supercharger oil. I don't know if it has ever been done. I bet 150,000 mile old sc oil is going to smell GREAT.

I also need to do a pan drop. I checked the trans fluid yesterday. Its dark, but doesn't really smell burnt. I'm almost afraid to do a pan drop and filter change. That always seems to be the precursor to death of an automatic transmission.
 
well i did mine almost 30k miles ago. and I had some burnt ass fluid. and ole girl still tickin :) better than she was before believe it or not
