what is the purpose of a catch can... ive seen such threads all over the place but they all assume that you will know wtf it is in the first place :p

i read one thread that said the catch can will smell like ass... so why would anyone want one? :p

how do you know?


i guess the ac compressor could be shot

When I saw this oil filter in a magazine I expected it to be a higher cost than your regular 'ol FRAM.. but I really didn't expect it to be THAT high.. Have you heard of TruFilter before? It's a washable oil filter much like your washable air filters... Trufilter Oil Systems is a revolutionary desig...

yes.. its called hand held portable.......

lol, sorry ... but i dont think so, at least ive never seen one (not that ive looked, just never noticed any)..

as far as the antenna, you could probably hide the antenna but it would interfer with the operation i bet

decided on the seven x instead.. 14"

cool thanks

now i just got to decide quickly if i want to stay with the 14" or go 15" with new tires... i dont know if anyone would buy my 14" toyo and i spent way too much on them to take the loss

14" rims = ~200$
15" rims & tires = 344$ + 45 for the lug nut set if i get it..

from everything i have read and seen i should be able to answer my own question.. but i just want to make sure with discount tire direct's $100 discount i cant pass up the chance to get some sort of rim for a lower price.. just cant afford to get tires at the same time (meaning i cant get a larger r...

i had originally looked at the GR2's also since they were a low price replacement... then i read a few threads about them in combination with any type of lowering spring... the consensus seems to be that these are NOT the struts to use when you lower the car... they blow out very quickly you can fin...

this is more of a financially motivated moral dilemma than anything else... ive read all the threads about prothane bushings and how they are better and easier to install and everything (which would be good--the easier install) but since im running a stock 2000 neon, that doesnt even look like anyth...

just wondering if ya do comments on them? i was thinking about getting one just for the novelty of it.. i have no problems whatsoever driving/turning with 1 hand as it is.. and honestly i think the knob would get in the way and would be awkward to use.. but whatever.. lets put aside that i think the...

yeah after looking at 2awg cable at lowes i decided ill go with 4awg.. 2awg is not flexible or pliable whatsoever and would not make for a good mod.. heh ran into a dilemma though.. i cracked the plastic housing off the starter connections and found that its not a standard type of connection.. its l...

i got to get that whole black top off to see the connection from the battery

i dont know what kind of terminal it is... just an o ring or what .. .

i want to do this today before i go to bed as long as i can get the 2awg wire.. but i dont know what kind of terminal that is underneath the plastic

good 'nuff for me.. thanks

ill try to get the plastic thing off without breaking though.. hehe..

now to find the time to do this.... and to find the 2awg cable (i actually want red and black to stick to the universal color scheme of + and - lol)

yeah i saw those kits on ebay after i posted also saw some VOGTLAND springs for $130.. seem to have good things said about them on this forum i could probably swing the $ for either springs (the tok kit or the tok struts + vogtland springs)... 4 new struts and springs all for less than Midas wanted ...

thanks for the additional comments unless there is a low cost combination of springs to get with the tokicos for a good ride ill probably just stick to my stock springs after reading a few things i wouldnt totally mind a little bit of a drop in the wheel well but since ive got 14" wheels anyways it ...

i dont think changing the size of the one wire and not any other would have any negative affect on the rest of the system.. +12v is +12v regardless of the size of the wire.. resistance .. i dunno.. still dont think it would matter i think ill be ok just changing out the terminal clamp wire to the st...

finally a reply :) thanks for the info i did some searching on the dropzone in the forum and concluded that they wouldnt be worth it and it seems that tociko struts are a little more suggested over the kyb's and roughly the same price so i might do those instead.. not sure though. at least with the ...

when they said look under the dash they might have been referring to the control module not neccesarily fuses i dont actually know how an alarm is wired up but i dont think it would be too different than a remote start.. and my remote start's control module is under the dash...... all the wires plug...

i want to change out my positive battery cables at the same time as i upgrade the ground wires (and get a new battery)... mainly because they are crap and corroded and need new terminal clamps too... i had thought of this a while back when i posted about changing to a side post battery but never got...

occasional demons mentioned it, did they tell you or did you ask about future changes to your eyes and how it would affect the lasik? get a pair of glasses and a few years later you might need stronger ones what happens when you drop $4000+ on lasik? eyes can still change... drop another 4K to get i...

ok so if you saw my "dr midas" thread Midas said my rear struts were leaking and needed to be replaced.. i dont know how important this is since everything seems to work fine but whatever so looking around at a couple how to's on replacing the struts it doesnt seem all that hard.. frankly doing my a...

now what would the defense be if you got pulled over by a cop for creating a hazard?

i could just imagine my car having 10 minutes worth of smoke and causing an accident.. heh.. my streets are pretty crowded

hehe i want to smoke like that.

might get a can of this just to try it out. ill have to find that other thread for more info on where to put the crap... cuz i dunno..

i think just get one of those small screw drivers and try prying it out while pressing the eject button


then get an FM transmitter or aftermarket cd player

http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/6221/m01ab3.th.jpg the timing belt / water pump was not needed, i just had them add the estimate since i'm around 115K and its never been done that i know of the axle seal is my fault.. i didnt do it (right) when i did the axle.. heh.. the tranny flush was suggest...

just get this, or any of the different kinds on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/DODGE-CHRYSLER-COMPASS-TEMPERATURE-REAR-VIEW-CAR-MIRROR_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33699QQihZ018QQitemZ280160438485QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW i want one but cant justify blowing the $$ on it searching for compass mirror...

i have not actually seen one of these but every amp basically has the same wires

+12v power
remote turn on lead
ground wire
rca/line inputs
speaker wires to amp

i'm not too mechanically inclined. i did my axle and that took a lot longer than it should have.. but thats partly because i was using hand tools, didnt have the best tools for the job.. and it was a 90 degree day.. im at something like 115K and youre "supposed" to do the timing belt at 100K, but th...

open ended question i guess mechanics are $$ to begin with.. labor is definately not cheap.. but how do you get a mechanic to do what you want them to do, not do what their policy is.. i.e. when i called a couple places about doing my axle they would not use an axle i supplied.. they would only use ...
