    Ok Sears, WTF

    I was under the impression he would eat the chili, how is that a waste? The end results of eating the chili would produce the safe knock-off ; p .

    Whacked Timing D:

    The air screw, from my understanding you can adjust that but the ECU will just over ride it and set the idle. I could be wrong but I remember reading a few threads that talked about that adjust screw and that the ECU sets the idle.

    You also can't adjust the idle using the screw that you were messing with...

    Green Grease?

    How about CAT Desert Gold grease. Someone countered the Green Grease recommendation with the desert gold saying the specs beat any other grease out there. CAT lists the full specs too, no mysterious magic super ingredient going on at least.

    Ok, makes me feel better I started to question myself that I must have missed them.

    Grease fittings?

    Ok, here's something I've never paid attention to until just now. Do we have any grease fittings(stock parts), I haven't noticed any and looking through the TSRM maintenance operations doesn't show any. With my jeep I hit 7 fittings whenever I do an oil change, all of which are easy to spot...

    Charcoal Canister Replacement

    I've thought about doing that but here in Az they do the emissions testing. They always do a visual check of it and also plug into it. Unless you hid it away but kept an easy access panel to it I could see it being a problem.

    Windshield washer hoses?

    Well, I found the main hose is 6mm and used a reducer to go to a 4mm hose then to a T out to each nozzle. Napa didn't have a 4mm T so I had to get a huge one that is cut to size, might look at replacing it later since its so huge and out of place. Overall they work great, not sure why people...

    Green Grease?

    I was recommended Green grease and have never herd of it before and wondering if it is a quality product or just a grease gimmick? Just looking at the website makes me want to run away from it. I'm just looking for an all around grease for u-joints and such on various vehicles. Green Grease...

    Hard time downshifting into 2nd

    I'm pretty sure my pedal is adjust correctly but the diagram(TSRM) as simple as it maybe I don't fully get where to measure. I wish someone could post a pic with the ruler in the proper place to measure in regards to the pedal and the floor. ---------- Post added at 07:02 PM ---------- Previous...

    Dear IJ...

    I lived in florida for a summer years ago and we had Wolf spiders and I swear it did the same exact thing! I had never seen a spider jump down off the ceiling at someone like that, freaked me out. Those spiders were aggressive and would come at you all the time. Now in Az I got scorpions that...

    Hard time downshifting into 2nd

    Is it a synchro that causes it or some other internal wear and tear? I guess if it is normal wear and nothing that is going to grenade on me I'm happy. The PO said it was recently rebuilt(backed up with receipts actually) but who knows, I didn't pay that much for the r154 considering and...

    Hard time downshifting into 2nd

    I'll give bleeding it another shot and maybe give a little more than usual pressure next time to just to see. Still if applying more pressure gets it into gear there's gotta be a reason behind it ha.

    Hard time downshifting into 2nd

    If it were an issue with air in the MC wouldn't every gear be effected? It seems odd to me that it would only be that one particular downshift. Then again I don't know the mysteries surrounding transmissions so I could be wrong ha. I'm also worried about applying a lot of pressure... I did...

    Hard time downshifting into 2nd

    I'm wondering what's going on with my transmission here. It some times doesn't likes to downshift into 2nd no matter what speed/rpm I am at. An example being, I pull into my drive way and coast along from maybe 15mph and try to go into 2nd and it wont. I eventually almost come to a dead stop and...

    Windshield washer hoses?

    The PO removed almost all traces of the windshield washer setup and I've decided to finally add it back. I've got almost everything back in except the hoses that go to the front nozzles. I found this diagram which helped a lot, I need the top part of the setup now. I have the hose leading...

    Brake fluid disposal?

    Pretty easy to prove it was me when I had them a container full of it. Here they have to dump the fluid, customers are no longer allowed to do it. Also, I want to dispose of it properly. If mixing it with the engine oil is bad I'd like to know the proper way.

    Brake fluid disposal?

    I am wondering about what to do with used brake fluid. I was told it was fine to mix it with used motor oil and dispose of them together. I was at a local parts place and took in a container full of brake fluid and told them what it was and they didn't seem to care. On another forum the topic...
