Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

I changed my oil the other day mobil super 5000 and stp filter $16.99

Detailed the car among other things and gave a little mini photo shoot, check deez;






Ignore my crappy attempt to remove pinstripes, I need a solution to get that adhesive off any ideas? All in all a good day and I do have to touch up the arrowhead i know.

Stuff like that comes off easier on a hot day. You can use Wax/Grease remover and a rag to get rid of what's left.

dmahlikGT I love your car.

Found out yesterday my car had a size 86 battery. Ordered an 85 with 865CA. ^_^ putting it in tomorrow.

the paint on that badge looks crooked, not lined up lol

I do like those wheels tho!!

Thanks nate. Yea Looks like I might have to buy wax remover,I mean it was a lil hot today but that stuff is tough to get off. And mad monkey I know I gotta touch it up a bit. Gonna find me a fine tiny paint brush, and yea im keeping these wheels may get them painted gun metal grey possibly.

what size are they again?
I like simple wheels like that.

They are 17s

dmahlikGT...look into a rubber wheel for the pinstripe. Put it in an electric drill and go to town. I used one on my car and it worked wonders.

The wheels on my olds look just like that. They came off of an aztek.

Drove car to house viewing...then on the way to Decatur, SES light came on and the car proceeded to fall on its face a few times.
Filled it up with gas for 2.93 :P Gotta love gas wars and kroger fuel points! Gas around the town I live in is 3.37, Decatur has had the war going on for a few days and was 3.05-.03 most places.
Got home and scanned it....P0102. I'm gonna kick the MAF in its teeth.

haha^^ to bad bill bought my extra.

Lucky me I get to chase wires around now! Replaced the bad sending unit but now I gotta look for a faulty wire somewhere because my needle is all spazzy lol. When I drive every time I hit the accelerator it goes up slowly release and down... blinker on for long period of time it goes up.... when I have the flashers on it goes haywire sometimes sometimes doesn't. When i'm idling it'll slowly go down to fuel level and sometimes it'll spaz out lol this 98 is a headache

Maybe I'll steal it from him. HA

Nah, I'll try cleaning it again and see if that works. It's been what, 3 months since it did it last time? Maybe longer. It honestly has ran fine, no stumbles at all and then today just before the light came on I felt it stumble...then fell hard once sitting at the light. At least it's easy...to bad its expensive.

had to smack my drl module around 2 times yesterday, picked up some new fuses, and popped in the new one that blew the fuse a few days back, and it works just fine now. i dont get it at all. but for now its working.

Its been a while probably 4 months or so. I think bill said he would trade it for donuts lol

DmahlikGT... your front tire(s) look bald as ****. Racing slicks.

Front mount on the Buick replaced. Also added a hood light. Vacuumed it out and got her washed.

New water pump and shocks on the work van.
