    So I'm biting the bullet and doing my valve cover gasket (ordering part from Camelback naturally). Going to do my spark plugs & wires while it's super easy, is it worth it doing the ignition coils? I'm on a bit of a budget but at the same time, probably never an easier time to do it. Truck is at 215K miles, we got it at 190k miles, with no other maintenance records, truck is doing fine, but I know the gasket is starting to fail so good time to replace it.

    I know I'm in and out of this forum (time/money mostly, no extra cash no tacoma world, otherwise you guys will convince me to get more mods and truck stuff I can't afford lol), but always LFG with cool people.

    Yeah if I am going to do it, absolutely all 3. But they seem fine? I mean no codes/misfires/nothing. Think I'll save the cash. So many small/pricey maintenance projects on the truck (all the door seals should get replaced, both rear doors need the lock/handle mechanism or something replaced). Thanks for the advice!

    Holy shit

    @Empty_Lord

    This girl is looking at trading her car in -

    20200612_142259.jpg

    She shouldn't even be driving this thing :facepalm:

    The seatbelt doesn't retract due to the fact that the car had been in an accident already and the vehicles safety system kicked in. Apparently this is how she received the car from her boyfriend and she's been driving it like this for awhile.

    I need to paint this creeper transmission/xfer case skid this weekend. The humidity is already causing it to pick up a little surface rust. I want to use an engine paint is good for some high heat. I see a lot of people paint under body armor red. Thoughts on color?

    What the fuckk haha

    Doesn't a car go into limp mode automatically after the airbags/safety system kick in? Has she just been driving it around at 5mph all this time?
