SOLVED! Post 2853 Leaking Injectors, Dealer Techs Rock! Extended Cranking after Engine Swap 3.4L 5vz

ha ha ha!!! Good stuff, where do you find this shit???

I wondering if that was the case (about the filter). Thought it was strange that we never heard about these until recently. Meaning, only newer vehicles have them.

Or, another way of saying that would be, only vehicles that aren't bordering on antique (like the Civ and Taco) have them Gonna go out on a limb here and assume that means the '93 Civ doesn't have one either

 

google search, I couldn't find one of a squirrel setting a car on fire but they might have one out there lol.


here is one showing eric as he finds the car on fire: http://i.ytimg.com/vi/HAlgvooHLgI/hqdefault.jpg

I "think" from 2000 on, all cars had cabin filters (based on relatives cars) and "some" trucks started using them around 05 but I don't know if they all do

 

Jen, you need a trunk monkey!

those are standard equipt in most Subaru models

frickin PETA made em stop the commercials because it was exploiting chimps! gimme a break

they were bigger then the AFLAC duck way back in their day

 

That guy is AWESOME!!! Want one!!! This would solve a variety of problems!! Can all you TW peeps donate a dollar to my cause so I can get one?

What should the title of my campaign be? What would really inspire people to help a worthy cause like getting me a trunk monkey?

 

Waaaa????????????????????? Totally getting a Suby now!!



That does sound a bit silly. I'm all about animals, but it's tough to see how those guys were being harmed at all.

 

more!

Good stuff, can't believe I never heard of the Trunk Monkey before!!! He's the bomb, my new hero even!!

 

Alrighty, today I have a very, very important goal. Serious stuff over here guys.



Searching antique places/thrift stores for some of those fancy looking crystal type whiskey decanter bottles. Eric's going to build some custom shelving in the kitchen so I can display certain things (jars, etc) and one of the things will be a little beverage shelf!!! Fancy glasses and fancy liquor bottles - I want it to look like something straight out of Boardwalk Empire, like glamorous drinking during prohibition type look. Or maybe more of an old west look, with labels on the bottles that have old west style lettering. Hmmm. Anyway - gotta find the right fancy bottles first. Will share before and after pics whenever we actually get this project started!!

 

why waste gas going out in this heat? look here and get something like these? http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...+bottles.TRS0&_nkw=+decanter+bottles&_sacat=0

so lemme see, your going to build shelf for junk you don't have, then have to search to buy crap to put on the shelf you built for stuff you don't own yet.

 

I must admit, when you put it like that it does sound a wee bit

Honestly, an elderly (and kinda lonely I think) neighbor wanted to go to some antique store with me today. So I came up with an idea of something to look for, to make it more exciting for myself.

Besides, money spent on things related to drinking are totally worthwhile, right @koditten ???

Now that I gave up one expensive vice, I must find ways to waste $ on other vices

 

Insane, almost.

 

Money 4 junk, and you won't invest a dime in the old reliable Civic!
Madness!

 

HOLY F _ _ _. Unblankingbelievable.

A customer of Eric's just came to his work in her white 2002 4 Runner with only 100K.

YES, ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES ON A TWO THOUSAND TWO FOUR RUNNER.

Leather seats, bells and whistles galore (his customers are often wealthy people), no problems, she actually pointed out a tiny scratch in the paint and said that was what was wrong with it. . Has been serviced at a dealer the entire time they've owned it, and did I mention they are the only owners? And have lived here (no salt!!) it's whole life? And are nice, clean people that took great care of it?

The lady told Eric her husband wants to buy a sports car instead now, so he plan to sell it for blue book. I'm pretty much FREAKING THE FUCK OUT right now.

Time to open a credit union account pronto!!! Is it true that the best used auto loan rates are generally through credit unions? Or is using a major bank just as good?

OMG!!!! We can have a Toyota wedding with the Taco in a tux and the 4Runner in a wedding dress!!!

Can't wait to see how many "insane crazy missing electrode lady" comments I get for that idea!! Bring it on, nothing can burst my bubble now!!!

 

Kinda like what we did with our dalmatian, Patty, and our friend's black lab on our wedding day:

 

C'mon, now, you guys CAN'T call that crazy. That is just too damn cute to be crazy.

 

opening a new account gets you nothing, it only counts if you are a long time customer of at least over a year and have no over drafts or anything and you still need great credit. credit unions are the worst to get loans from in my experience, they just don't like to loan money unless you show you dont need it

if you have state farm, they finance car loans too, that's what I did to buy mine. I got 8% on mine with nothing in the bank, no down payment, and underwater with the lemon chevy truck notes and got approved in a few hours. but I did have great credit

there was no BS because they already have you as customer

he said most ins companies will do the same

 

call eric and tell him to bring 2 gallons of gas and some matches home with him, tell him your having BBQ this evening, BBQ civic

 

Not worried about approval for loan or whatever, just hoping to find lowest possible interest rate. Making a few calls now...........do NOT want to let this awesome perfect 4 Runner slip through our fingers due to being unprepared!!!

This would be perfect if it truly checks out to be as good as it sounds so far...........already emailed Eric a laundry list of questions to interrogate ask the people who are selling it........
