Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

I work on cars in shorts and barefeet. It's nice and cool. Gotta be fast if you drop a tool though.

Yesterday I sent this to Scotty


Beat the piss outta the car and after an ignition cycle...haven't seen the issue again.

Except you are overanalyzing the coolant tank. It's been filthy for years and likely you are like the rest of us.. never looking at that pos thing. You were...in the trunk?

nothing, i have been neglecting her for too long, plus i been uber busy.

While checking on my intercooler pump I noticed the stink of gas looked around and noticed a nice drip from the cyl 4 injector. Glad I found that...





I am going to go check out a Regal GS as a DD tonight after work, guy wants $1800 for 161k I'm gonna offer him $1200-$1300




Oh and I installed the fancy TEP cooler last weekend and my trans lines are leaking like a ***** on the trans side at the quick connect..




And this goes on Saturday

worth it, I dropped 25-30* cruising, I haven't really beat on it yet.. so i dont know those temps

Took apart my rear passenger door panel to see why my window rolls down funny and wont roll up at all. Looks like the cable was disconnected and appears a piece is broken too so in a few weeks gonna be replacing that whole regulator setup. As for now ghetto rigged the window with a piece of wood and folded cards to keep window from sliding down.

A friend of mine used beer cans on his driver side window.. Sloppy craftiness.

So you think I still might be in the clear? And yea I was pulling out a rag to wipe the side, there's also fluid sitting on top of the engine under the supercharger

I'm saying..if this is your first time overanalyzing the stupid overflow.. you should go check a few others first. Cause mine is dirty nasty and probably looks the same inside.

One self tapping screw to hold it up would work. Or a pair of vice grips on it. Anything that'll hold it up until you put the new regulator in.. Keep in mind. you don't really care about the old regulator once the new one is in.

I believe my sister used a piece of wood in hers to hold it up.

Thats what she used at first on the window and around the top of the door but it looked really bad. lol

my window regulator went bad in my 03 truck, it just dropped to the bottom of the door. i cut a 2x4 and jammed it under the window track to the bottom of the door till i got a new one delivered. held like that for over a week.

Bought some parts to fix its little temper tantrum yesterday. And some other goodies

I drove it to work and back
