| Got a little more work done on it this weekend. Saturday morning, I decided to tackle the slight coolant leak I had at the lower oil cooler line on the radiator. That metal "nut" that's pressed into the plastic tank was occasionally leaking. I stopped at the zone and picked up some JB Water Weld to give it a shot. I brake cleaned the heck out of the area and then sanded as best I could. I cut about an inch of the putty log off and kneaded it until it was all a uniform pasty white. Then I pressed it all around the nut, overlapping the metal and crossed my fingers. That was a PITA because it wanted to stick to my fingers more than it did the metal and plastic. I eventually got it in place and pressed the ends all around with a flat blade screwdriver. It said 15-20 minutes to set and fully cured in an hour (where it was supposed to be hard enough to drill and tap if so desired). Well, that was yesterday morning. This morning I crawled under and checked it. Rock hard. No leak. Woot! We'll see how long it lasts... I also threw a hockey puck at it when I pulled the MAF to clean it on Saturday. This afternoon after all the Mother's Day festivities I pulled the driver's seat out today to see why it leaned waaaaay to the left. Well, the whole seat frame was fatigued and broken! Luckily I pulled the seat at my stepfather's house just in case I needed some welding done. We did the best we could to weld it back together and weld in some supports. But that sheetmetal was thin and it was really easy to blow through it. But now it's all back together and I've got NO LEAN! Woot! It is, however, plainly evident how completely worn out the damn seat foam is now. The standoff on the left side that all the power lumbar and recline and heat controls are no longer sagging, and there is no padding there anymore, so I gotta be careful getting in and out. Or... OUCH! Oh, and I failed. No pics. Doh. Getting there! | |

| Aaaaand... She's gone. I listed her on CL for way more money than I thought anyone would pay, pretty much guaranteeing she'd stay in my driveway... But someone came up from CT today and paid me almost what I was asking. Fail. Epic Fail? *sigh* (so who won the pool??? ) | |

| Hmmm. Wonder what's worse in his description. The lowering springs or the professional part lol.
Unless that guy put in those springs, that's a bold faced lie and I'll call him out on it. | |

I knew he was putting it back up for sale, but damn. What a horrible description. I wonder what professional gears even are?
And it does have Eibachs in it, in the rear. | |
