    Probably is your shifting issue. Shouldn't drive it like that for too long unless you're looking for an excuse to do a manual trans swap lol. If it's below the cold mark you're probably at least a quart low and it's not happy. It's normal for trans fluid to burn off because it's not a sealed system.

    I'm DDing the Camry so it's going to sit till I have time to put some fluid in it. It definitely wasn't happy yesterday.

    Not sure about derusting but I hear 50/50 mix of ATF and 100% acetone works great for loosening bolts

    There's a calendar thread??

    That Kimball Midwest is terrific. The 50/50 ATF/Acetone does work great too but the problem with it is that it separates almost immediately. You practically have to have a sizeable amount of both in a sprayer bottle & shake it continuously while spraying.

    He contacted me and said he just picked the cut outs for the front bumper the other day. He's hoping to get it welded up this week or by next week.

    I think something is wrong with your mountains... what's all that green stuff.
    Pretty sure they're supposed to be brown and on fire...
