I'll get it jacked up and pull the wheel off tomorrow and try to figure it out. I think my issues aren't as major as I thought. Also quick question for anyone who can shed some light here.. I know I probably shouldn't fully trust the boost gauge in my Regal.. But it says I get 8.8lbs of boost at the top of the gears at WOT. Does that sound right? It just seems awfully high to me for a stock car.
seems a bit high, i see 7 psi tops. not that i watch it much. maybe the map sensor is bad? i understand thats where it reads the boost from.
if its like 5 deg's out it will hit 8 psi.
i also have 228,000 miles on it.
Did a couple good 2nd gear pulls tonight. No KR.
This car is weird.
I thought it seemed high. It's been low 30ish out and the car has 97k on it and the highest I've seen is 8.8psi.
Started buffing the white car yesterday and "finished" buffing it today....already got complimented on how good it looks a couple of times.
why can't it be spring already so i can start buffing my car and have everyone gaze at it in jealously... :(
Find a nice warm shop and get to work

I also took these pictures of a windshield of an old Opryland Hotel bus[circa 1960's], I thought it was pretty sweet looking.

not to bad of quality for a HTC oneV
topped of my rad after the jb weld repair and it failed in 5 miles or less. i think it had something to do with the humidity, it was raining out when i put it on.
so i took the rad hose off, siphoned the rad dry, moved the cross bar, and the wire harness and air filter to have better access to the crack. used 1/2 the tubes of jb weld this time, lol laid it on nice and f ing thick. so thick gravity was pissing me off. i had to play with it till it set up.
That sucks. Maybe it just wanted you to play with it until it stiffened up. Ha! Hope it holds this time.Quote:

I used the putty stuff not the stuff you mix
ohh geeeze. time will tell.
Steelstick jb weld, 5 bucks at meijer or walmart. Don't buy at autozone, it's 7-8 bucks. I got to meijer n always buy the whole stock. Usually 3-4. Can never have too much!
Doing the GTPs valve covers today since I got a day off.. Front was easy but the rear is a pain & I think I messed up the valve cover trying to wiggle it out
I'm not really sure if I should get a new one from the junk yard or just throw this one back on
