gp meet at Dan's house oct 13

Good news is O'Reilly's had compressors on sale for $134.99 which was a pleasant surprise and far lower than I had expected (and lower than RockAuto, even).

Bad news is the bolt holding the A/C lines to the compressor is too short. I ended up using a bolt from one of the front braces and it, too was too short - although long enough to mount the lines, far too short to make a seal. Talk about a waste of $12 of R-134.

I think my can of PB Blaster is reaching the end of the line.

Thats why you bought a new can of it yesterday though, we use that stuff on erythang.

 

[hensleya1]

I'm still stoked that O'Reilly's knocked $80 off the asking price to match Advance.

That, and they -finally- have a rewards card. About five years after the competition did it...

If all goes as planned, I will be there. Dan, you up for helping me install my trans that day??

 

[dsmuts]

Doing a trans install that day?

 

[Below Average Joe]

if you are up for it

 

[dsmuts]

That could probably happen. Pm me your number and I'll text you

 

[Below Average Joe]

don't have a cell so i dont text

 

[Below Average Joe]

Unless something changed, I'll be there around 9:30 in the am to start on the trans install.

 

[dsmuts]

Sounds good

 

[Below Average Joe]

what time is everyone else getting there?

 

[hensleya1]

I'm shooting for 2-ish, possibly as late as 3. At this point, 3 of us will caravan up from Dayton.

2 or 3? I was thinking more like noonish.

 

[hensleya1]

2 or 3? I was thinking more like noonish.

Turns out that Matt unwisely double committed himself. Not sure if he'll make it anymore.

I'm not free until 12-ish plus drive time so I'm looking at 2 at best.

 

[Below Average Joe]

I will not be on until Monday so if something changes email me Smutty. If not I will see you Sunday morning.

 

[dsmuts]

Ok sounds good see you then

 

[CapnBreakAlot]

Any experience replacing fuel lines? Lets just say I found out why I smell gas sometimes today...

 

[dsmuts]

We can fix it

 

[CapnBreakAlot]

Awesome. I was putting gas in my car earlier and well.. When it got close to being full I heard it hitting the ground. I checked out my fuel lines running from the tank and they're pretty sad looking so thats my best guess as to what it was. Could I pick this up today and would that work to replace my fuel lines? http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/d...arch_N2137_1357141_3959&pt=N2137&ppt=C0333#at
