Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

one of the alt bracket bolts hits a coolant area. maybe you left one of them bolts out, theres 3 of them on the alt bracket.

or was it a coil bracket bolt that hits a cooling jacket? being your leak is in the front more it seems, aka bumper side of the engine.

and you just top swapped right? with 2 extra bolts?

I'm pretty sure I got all 3 but heres the second vid 2: http://youtu.be/Q5dPldQr5IQ

check that all the coil bracket bolts are in.

It's hard to see....but the whole car is covered in a layer of corn cob dust. It hasn't been bad at all until today. Car is now pinkish.

Drive fast to blow it off, lol.

Drove it to Pittsburgh to watch the Pirates game. Sitting in traffic the temp climbed a little, but nothing that made me worry too much. When the engine temp was up the trans temp got as high as 194. Still not bad. Before the cooler it would have been in the 220 range in the same situation.

I drove my truck to work, left work early because we was slow and looked over in the passenger seat to see oil I bought, said **** it as it can wait till tomorrow because I already changed clothes. Drove to store and home, put 6 miles on today.

I wish it was that easy. Unfortunately most of it doesn't blow off.

You aren't driving fast enough

I ONLY hand wash my cars...

And I agree - it's becoming a lost art amongst the current society of "faster is better"...people don't take care of details anymore.

Lit it on fire!

my car only gets the car wash in the winter time. and thats a rare stop too. its got to be real cold and just snowed for me to even think about paying for a car wash.

the rest of the year its all hand car washes. i just washed and waxed it weeks ago, and its filthy again, needs a wash again.....maybe today ill wash it. came close yesterday.......but blew it off.

everyone should own a buffer too. makes the paint look new again.
