Yeah those engines are very difficult to work on. That's why I'll buy one with a rebuild already done to it. A good $8000 to $9000 for a decent one.

So I planned on buying Reptile's tune in a month or two so I can pay for the important stuff like plate renewal, tires, etc. But since my fans are still programmed to 210* or whatever the stock temperature is, my 180* T-Stat is almost pointless (imagine that). It sits nice and low when driving, but once you sit there, it will climb. So I might have to get that tune earlier than I thought. But after taking my air box out and seeing the PCM sit there, how do you take it out or disconnect it? I didn't get a good look at it, but I imagine the wires aren't clipped in like a fuel injector wire, so how do you take it out?
So here's the dealio with my seat.
I took it out and pulled the leather bottom up to get a glimpse at what was causing the strange bump. Turns out it's this:
You can see my finger pointing at the culprit. That plastic bead thing snapped and is pushing upwards. So I tried snipping the ends that were pushing upwards, but it still wasn't enough.
So here's what I'm going to do now. Tomorrow I'll be heading to the junkyard and buying a new leather seat bottom to replace mine. I know there's a good one so I'll grab that one. It's from a coupe, but I think it should still work. Then I won't have that annoying raise in the seat anymore.
