When a battery fails the internal resistance exceeds its capability to chemically separate charges and you experience a voltage drop. Since this statement is nearly meaningless to the majority of people, the phrase "you're battery is not holding a charge" is as valid a way to say your battery...

After you swapped the master cylinder did you bleed the rear brakes until you saw new fluid coming out?

Get your battery tested, sounds like it's not holding a charge correctly.

I wonder how many of those cars they destroyed during the series. Some of those landings looked pretty gnarly.

Tough in what way? Tough as in high reliability or tough as in horsepower?

Sounds like damaged wiring under the dash. When you did the 12v mod did you leave or find any exposed wiring?

Brand new car, brand new parts, all new tooling. Makes sense to me. Give it a couple years and the prices will go down when the development costs are covered.

I don't pretend to be smart(no one would believe me anyway) but as I recall thermal wrap causes premature rust due to the trapped heat, not moisture. Remember that rust is oxidation and adding heat to an oxidation reaction will accelerate that reaction. By preventing the heat from radiating...

Heat-wrap is the devil. Don't use it on exhaust parts you want to last.

Changing pistons seems unnecessary to me. If the problem is burning oil then you probably have a bad seal or ring somewhere in the engine. I don't see how your pistons could be causing the problem after only 300 miles.

I agree with DonS1mpson on this one. I would much rather build the motor myself than trust an anonymous donor motor. That way I know exactly what I'm getting. Besides, rebuilding the motor isn't that expensive if you do the work yourself. Why wouldn't you pay the extra for a brand new motor...

That's a great book. It's one of the few Star Wars books that is actually well written and original. I'm currently reading the Ender series by Orson Scott Card.

Where abouts in Cali are you tooslickz?

You and yer damn logic....

Sounds about right to me. The rattling sound means you're going to have to do more than just replace the gasket. You're likely looking at a full rebuild.

I was in an accident last Thursday that completely destroyed my daily driver and sent my passenger and I to the hospital. When we were released and went to see what was left of the car my first thought was "Thank God we're alive, that was close!" My next thought was "Thank God that wasn't the...
