oh you slay me

 

Just thought I'd share this shot of my brother's handsome beast, in his element this last weekend.

 

@bhh2000 were you up in Cloverdale again today?

 

He’s the owner of the computer repair place in Cloverdale if I’m not mistaken.

 

Any suggestions on how to remove a screw that is stripped and no access to the sides to grab a hold of it? Tried to remove a screw on an IAC and it immediately stripped, but its sunk into the plastic housing so no way to get pliers on it.

Here is an example of what the screws look like, not mine.

 

Do you have an extractor? Maybe HF have them if not. Or dremmel a slot in it and use flat blade screwdriver.

 

Nope and I harbor freight by me unfortunately. Will see if any local places do.

Reverse drill bit. They work awesome. They cut backwards from normal so go slow and it will grab and pop right out. "in theory"

 

Thanks, I’ll pick one up today. Worth a shot.

Thanks!

 

a vise and a better screw driver. the proper size , it doesn't looked that stripped.

 

And that was fundamentally mine.

Consider the frying pan...

 

Left handed drill bits are always my first go to. I hate extractor bits.

I agree. Doesn't look that stripped.

 

Yes I was! Cloverdale Automotive was fixing my alignment issues the dealership told me to "get used to it's normal"

Porter is right! I own Cloverdale computer so I'm there pretty much everyday. I've walked by your house and seen the truck many times always wondered if you were a member. You have probably seen me around town with the dual RTT set up like this

Sadly just took the tents off for the season.

I also rock the Acura commuter car a lot now sadly.

 

Is his tail pink?

 

Yup, they recently did a breast cancer walk thing and dyed the the white tip for that.

 

At what point do I check throttle positioning sensor?
Throttle a little slow on the get up not sure but think that's it?!

 

That was a generic photo, mine are worse.

Will look into those as well.

Is yours an electronic throttle body or throttle by wire? If by wire you can tighten the wire up which will help with the throttle response.
