i have a fat floor jack.
and what is wrong with your car, do you have a boost gauge? if so whats the psi,, and does it hold, or drop off, or is it just low. ill bring the gauge i have. and we can connect direct. then go drive and see what it is at the outlet. either way, its fixable.
awesome, thanks!!! It basically starts low like it should with a SC, and it climbs but very slowly, from what I remember from the boost gauge on the dyno chart..but I could be wrong...

Woohoo, they are actually televising my Charger game out here. That hardly ever happens! I'll be over right after the game.

Hopefully it'll be a little warmer out by then.

GO CHARGERS!!!!!

Wow this has become a GAME! I was about to turn away from the tube and start to head over there after the 1st half, but the "MO" has swung to the Bills and it is only a 3 point game! Can't give in just yet.

I'll be there soon.

Come on Chargers!!!! GO!!!!!

Anyone over there yet besides Philip? I just got off the phone with him and the are on a parts run.

Well FINALLY made it over there after a nail bighter of a win for my Chargers. Whew

Found Philip about to dive into caliper painting, but at almost 2pm there was NO WAY he was gonna get far.

After setting him to proper prep work, I got busy/dirty changing diff fluid and tranny fluid for David (Enthralled) as he hooked me up with a new head unit!

Decided to finally swap out spark plugs on my car and it was a good thing because they were TOASTED!!! Will post pics shortly since I forgot to grab my camera.

Dave was in "supervisor" mode by then, since he had gotten down & dirty earlier with Philips clutch fluid fix.

Wish we had more folks show, but their loss I suppose. I may have shown up later than anticipated, but made up for it by working diligently once there.

We'll be doing this again soon for those that couldn't make it, and tacking on an afternoon drive.

Until then, then.

yeah, i did my front rotors/pads/bleed. and then my pollen filter.

then helped phil with his dry clutch..

then dave jumped on and decided we should check his clutch out also.

then mike explained he had never even glanced at his pollen filter..
so i donated my old one, which had half the miles his did.

all in all. it was a good day, and the LTD enjoyed its fair share of fun, toting everyone to the deserted taco bell on sahara... we went in,, not one person there. amazing.
hope we can do stuff like this more often. it helps for friend time, and keep you smiling knowing the s2k community are all cool folks. late dave


p.s someone thought football was more important than cars.
