    I had forgotten that you made some changes to the emissions/fuel system. This change in MPGs seems to sort of coincide with that change doesn't it?

    not quite. I swapped the new evap box in in septemeber I think in the hopes to fix my fueling issues. Which turned out to be something different. I don't want to crawl under there and just make sure everything is connected right though. But there is not signs that something is wrong back there, no smells and no codes.

    Cold weather makes checking for exhaust leaks a breeze. Take flashlight out there for a minute and start the truck. Should be pretty easy to see any exhaust leaking anywhere when it's that cold.

    The rear hatch won't open which is absolutely hilarious.

    Is hilarious. In the comments, someone said it would not be possible to change the windshield. :rofl:

    When I try to look at past auction results, the listings flicker on and off. Do you happen to know why? Is it because I am not a 'member'?

    I know it's not member related, as I am logged in on my phone but browse daily on my work PC as a guest. It could be your internet connection or the website might be getting quite large as they don't remove any past auctions.

    While you're there check out that Morgan 3 wheeler auction ending next week :drool:

    I've seen this ugly fucking this a few times when I still lived in AZ. It's even worse in person, the work is appallingly awful, like taste aside (anyone that would make that or buy it has awful taste and I'm being nice) but the workmanship was what I'd expect of a fly by night meth head in a parking lot saying he can repair your dents.

    I enjoy Doug's videos and wished he had made a video on that 4runner, but without acknowledging any of the modifications ever in the video. Would've been a hilarious way to troll his fanbase.

    Probably ran out of money, or they were like us with unfinished projects

    Running out of money was for the best, should've happened when they started though

    So got my fly wheel and they didn't do it right. It's very close. .45mm I'd say on average which is amazing considering they didn't remove the pegs and buff the outer ring at all. Can't do much about it though I think.

    The luk wheel is much more aggressive, 0.711mm.

    Going to see if the parts store can at least tell me if it's out of balance or not. Or maybe they can buff my OEM one right. Not sure.
