This is the best thread.

gently caress Ohio rust.

Azteks are beyond hideous, but I'll be damned if there isn't something just... attracting... about them. I remember the first one I saw in person was on Woodward during Dream Cruise weekend and Pontiac had a couple stuck here-and-there just because. Everyone was talking about how terrible they looked, but the fact was that EVERYONE was talking about them.

I mean never mind the LS4, nobody's even swapped a 3800SC in one of these yet.

Incorrect!

HVAC fan has developed a vibration, creating a very annoying buzz in the steering wheel and pedals, and adding another layer of fun to the lukewarm heat/single-speed fan situatin.

Have you cleaned the hvac tract? Could have poo poo plugging it up causing lack of flow and imbalanced blower?

Those carts are generally in stock at restaurant supply stores, for anyone that needs one in a hurry. They slap together quick and take a hell of a beating.

Amazon also stocks them, but I'm not sure what you'd search for

Cool idea. I'd get one if I had the storage space.

Looks like "rubbermaid shop cart" pulls up a lot of options.

You may have already guessed, but the spring is still rubbing the tire. :suicide:

Grind the pointy bit down. It's not actively part of the suspension anymore, you can easily take it down far enough that it isn't digging into the tire.

More ports are better. Now you've got some water injection and can run more timing.

1-year ownership update:

*rusty brake line ruptures*

Hate hate hate that. My Avalon sat for about 4 months until I got off my rear end to replace a section of hard brake line. Pain in the rear end job with no reward at the end... the car just stops again. Whoopee.

Good luck!

It'll sound about the same because a diesel and gasoline engine tend to have a lot of similarities at 0 rpm.

Finally got around to gluing down the wayward dashpad:


Still looks like rear end because it shrank away from the front of the panel, but at least it's not flapping in the breeze.

That calls for duct tape in a companion color. Or camo.
