• 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?

Yeah I love those snap-on torque wrenches. The ones with the simple dial selector. I'm not a fan of the electric ones though. I'm gonna get myself one like this:

When I worked in a shop this was my favorite tool....always stole it off my bosses tool box
 


seem to have a sticky caliper...ordered new pads, so I'll be able to rotate tires, and put the new slotted rotors I had laying around on too....was waiting for an excuse....
 
Got my new radio installed and working, I'll have to hook up my steering wheel controls later but so much better than the stock unit. I can actually tell what time it is in my car now.

I also found out why my seat is squeaking, the bracket I built had broken in half due to fatigue along a cut I had made in it.
 
Drove it, went out with the fiancé for dinner since we don't have the wee ones for a few days.

Now its tucked away in the carport again.

Ran a v6 tl on the way to work and man do they sound good. He got the hit on my both times because the first time he was passing me and I punched it when he was beside me the second time was because we were turning out onto another road and he was in front of me and hammered it before I could even touch the gas. I got around him the second time. The first time I let off because the was a semi in front of us.
 


Finally got my drive ability issue stored out. After replacing just about every cheap sensor under the hood, and doing a gasket job and looking for vacuum leaks I finally found my issue after getting a bluetooth adapter and the Torque app. That is very help full.

My MAF was dead. I tried cleaning it, but no dice, I couldn't get any readings out of it afterwards. So a new AC Delco MAF and it is now good to go. I basically gave this GTP a real good tune up. I hope she treats good for a while because I spent a lot of money getting this thing to run right again.
 
Was going to run it through the touchless car wash but the line was way too long and I wasn't going to wait. I was chauffeuring my mom around and after I dropped her off I went to the regular do it yourself car wash and spent $3.50 and washed it as good as I could with the lack of light. Went and filled it with gas afterward and it looks 20 times better than it did.

Yeah I kept telling Capn Breakalot he should get it. He didn't listen to me. It's the $89 special at Wal-Mart.
