Orange County CAF's: up to no good

Gawd why does this thing even exist

 

Man if gas really skyrockets not sure what I'll do

 

I average around 15, rarely more than 16 unless long drive without off roading

 

Make the right judgement calls on what you'll really need to use that gas for!School,work,girls,girls and oh yeah girls for dates and such!

 

Yapp.... was averaging 12 when I first got it. Put some fuel injector cleaner in, than octane booster and that brought me to 15. But ya definately lower than the 20 something I hear many other 4bangers get

 

Dafuq? That's pretty bad for a 4 banger. Maybe you should start using those Chevro-legs

I'd suggest a bike though, you can still roll on a flat tire

 

Tune up?

 

That is but i've never had a 4cyl.Tacoma!Tune up for sure for Nick(@MuricaTaco)!

 

On top of that I just found a small spot of rust on the frame....

Haaa Chevro-legs . I was thinking about a motorcycle for a little while there on and off, maybe a 300 or 250. A buddy got one recently so it put the idea in my head, but there are so many idiot drivers around. Plus my mom's brother died on one so she wouldn't be the happiest if I went that route

Damnn, maybe I need to downgrade/upgrade hahaha.

Yaa I'm hoping to give it one whenever I have some free time from school, probably during spring break next month. I know it's never had a full tuneup since I've owned it, only things that have been changed are the oil and brakes.

 

Yours isn't stock

Jesus that was long. Aren't Cobra's pretty expensive

Can't remember what this was lol

Going through this now with this and the 4runner thread

Yup. No mas

Doesn't the Sequoia have one too? It's SUV version of the tundra

That would be AWESOME

Ikr. Lovely feeling

Looks good. I think a little blending would be good

I heard about that too

If the evo doesn't have that affect you're not driving it right

That would be interesting

Right? I'm already pissed I have to pay for gas in the $2 range again

That's a great plan!

Damn that's bad! I get 20-25 in the Firebird and I believe I was getting 15 in my 4runner with the 3.0

That's an upgrade!

 

Should probably lube zerg fittings while you're at it

 

Appreciate it. I should be able to get most of that done myself and with whomever friends are also on break, I like fixing my truck even though I have no idea what I'm doing half the time. My uncle was the kind of guy who built street rods and roadsters from the frame up so guess his blood is still going through me hahaha.

Zerg fittings? Haven't heard of those before

 

They're small metal fitting that you connect a grease gone to. They can be found all over you're linkage and your drive shaft

 

I can help you out if necessary as well!General mechanics for the most part.Do you have tools!?

 

2wd should still have zergs. My Firebird has a shit load

 

Yaap, gotta work my way up. I'd love to work on autos as a hobby, carry on the family legacy my uncle left . Maybe one day I'll be able to buy back his roadster, I know who has it sorta haha.
I have some auto tools, not much though. Majority of my tools are for construction and stuff like that. Hell to get the skid plate off my dad and I found a metric set of wrenches he has been given 15 years ago and opened them for the first time

 

Hmm unless zergs got out dated and I didn't know it I'm positive there are some.

Also I bet there was on the 79. My Firebird's only an 84. My 4runner has them too

 

I'll keep that in mind for when I have some free time and get all into it . I'm trying to play nice with a friend's friend who is friends with a vw bus auto shop owner here in HB so I can get to know the owner and maybe help him out for free and learn a little when I have the spare time
