| wow, that is a lot of car, and a lot of very tricky curves, i only got one coat done, then got bored so started fixing random stuff,
Dumb asses dont know how to put a light bulb in, so got those fixed up, then one broke so i threw in a Osram H7 bulb from the GTI.
went ahead and pulled a spark plug, some dumb ass threw in a Autolight plug WTF is that cheap ass shit! going to change those out soon.
decided i really wanted that front plate bracket off, so i decided to cut the plastic (tougher then i thought it would be) then grabbed some vice-grips and got that puppy out, much happier now
read the whole owners manual, and found out its actually supposed to be stored in the trunk, odd, but ok, and found a couple interesting neat gizmos!!
also check out the F/S section if anyone is needed tires let me know!!!! | |

| It's likely that some of those mufflers are resonators. | |

| They all look like mufflers and I do believe I read on the forum that there are 5 mufflers | |

| replaced my antenna last night, the old one was seized so the auto extend and retract feature didnt work, i would just hear the motor spinning, in this picture you can see the old antenna mast, then that little circle thing next to it is the geared wire, i broke it off when i pulled it out now question time, on the passenger side of my trunk as you can see it sits higher then the rest of the car, but the driver side is fine, and towards the rear of the trunk its all aligned, what should i do to get this rear corner to sit flush? | |

| ok so funny thing, during my cruise, i kept smelling something funny in the car dont know if it was through the air vents or something else
then i figured i should stop by my local auto parts store and clear my Random Misfire Code, P0300
start up my car no CEL im happy, throw her in reverse, stalls dont know what happened start her back up, she gets close to stalling but i let off the brake and continue with my reversing
driving along then Restricted Performance appears now im confused, i continue driving along then experience a really rough shift dont know what gear maybe into 4th
Restricted Performance goes away all im thinking is why do i now have a mysterious Gremlin? Drive home continued normal from that point on

| Swapped on my ponies with Blizzacks last week. Left about 500 miles worth of tire in a parking lot, then a few hundred more on the road to get me home from A2. Fucking hell I need to dial out this caster. | |

| A boosted truck and no thread about it? I guess he's too busy with his fancy college friends to share with us Anyway I put some mounts for my Escort Passport in the current stang, and fixed the lighter plug... I can't believe the people who worked on this car before me, completely flaking out on things that are easier than a 20 piece jigsaw puzzle. Going to wire a switch for it soon so I can flip the GPS and Escort on and off at the same time. | |
