Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Strawberry milkshake coolent

    I just noticed the other day that the coolent tank had a pink oily look to it so I took it out and drained it. I then took off the rad cap and noticed that the coolent looked like a strawberry milkshake. Im guessing the trans cooler sprung a leak in there and is mixing. However I didnt...

    Surges when shifting into drive.

    Does anyone know what would cause my 99 Grand prix GTP to want to surge forward when shifting into drive from park. Its not a smooth transition like it used to be. I'm wondering if it could be a vacuum leak or one of the sensors.
