Always does. For a few minutes at least

 

Its what I did.

And it feels good.

 

been thinking that I need a break from wheeling, maybe I should wait on the trailer


on the other hand I'm pretty sure I could flip this trailer if I decide I don't want it

 

Well truth be told it was just a dirty ass oil cap

When i took the valve cover off to delete the pcv baffle that wasnt letting anything flow through it for some reason it was all very clean

 

Cool cool, that's good to hear

 

Im going to make a less complex baffle setup because the factory one had various passages/chambers behind a sealed plate of riveted on steel

Thinking of just welding a rudimentry plate of aluminum that prevents oil from just getting splashed onto the pcv valve and breather

 

Oh did the breathing passages never clear up?

 

No i blew direcly into the breather even with the oil cap off and it was sealed from the crankcase somehow

I did the same on the t4r whose engine ive never wrenched on and it just vented through the oil cap and the hole the pcv valve would go

 

5/16ths fittings work on 8mm fuel line they will seal you just have to sand off the coating toyota puts on their lines

 

Sometimes things like that are needed.

 

I see some healthy looking grass under and around that trailer. St. Augustine?

 

If only there were room for them... they put the filter on before putting the subframe with engine and trans in

I actually have a set of flare nut wrenches

 

Looking good. Here's some Acura design trivia in the link below. Some of this may look familiar to @eon_blue

Anyone know how to make Dakar’s stop squeaking?

 

@BartMaster1234

did you ever apply for Any of the COVID business grants?

Also, my school got a federal grant and had to give 50% of it to students, probably the same as yours. I got 250$, not much but it’s something.

 

Don't recall the name of the professor but the transportation design students were in a world of their own at ACCD lol. They definitely put on the most impressive grad shows

 

OME Dakar with no AAL at all.

Been happy with the flex (for my off road needs).

Been happy with the weight it handles.

Was unhappy with the squeaking but it went away not long after it started; I pried the leaf pack apart with a large flathead and greased the pads which helped a lot.

Here's how level it is when I'm nearly loaded for a trip sans ice chests and food; just a pubic hair of rake on it if Ryan were to comment on it -



However, due to the addition of my ARB, I have a tad more rake than I'd like when I'm unloaded



Delayed response attributed to my washing the truck for the first time this year

 

Lol at the 3rd gen thread where the guy roasted his clutch offroad with just a few thousand miles on it. Didn't know why his truck wouldn't go into gear, video and all.

Kinda feel bad for him really

 

I get $600 more on my unemployment checks because of the COVID relief. I think that’s a California statewide thing.

 

Yeah everyone on unemployment gets that through the end of the month. There was a measure proposing to extend it thru the end of the year but I don't think it passed.
