Lots of stuff done to her tonight!

Post by smh0101 »

Sooo.... I decided that it may be a good idea to do a minor routine overhaul on the car... I mean minor

Just

Oil
Oil Filter
Fuel Filter
Spark Plugs
Vaccum Lines

I was pissed because I obviously had a boost leak... that whistled really loud and occasionally made it cut out and kinda sputter... So I went to Napa to get vac line and walked out with a $60 bill... oops

BUT!!! The car is freaking happy now. No more boost leak sputter/whistle and no more hesitation! Yay!

Hopefully it will help mileage to... It was bloody aweful! like 18mpg... NOT pounding it either.

That fuel filter was messed up... it had crub come out of it when I turned it upside down.

The vacuum lines were all cut up and spliced. I replaced pretty much all but the ones underneath the intake mani.

Sure does run better. One of the POs was a tard... they fucked this car over.
