    Could switch to a 3VZ-E bellhousing and it moves the fork and slave to the other side... same bellhousing bolt pattern tho and I think you can still use a taco clutch

    That probably would have helped a little, but its all together now, and IDK if the PS side header would clear

    This gas smell outside my truck is getting old. I haven’t had a chance to get to Napa to try a new gas cap, but I have a feeling it’s not gonna be that easy. I suspect the shop messed something up with the fuel rails or injectors while replacing the knock sensors, although that was several months before I started noticing it.

    Can't pinpoint the "location" of the smell?

    Looked around the engine fuel rails?

    Or is it like unburnt fuel?

    Cold start only or all the time?

    @eon_blue

    Does the self-awareness in the mirror start sooner?

    I wasn't sure but he'll look at the mirror often (as recent as a week and a half ago or so) and now he's even smiling and laughing at it

    Ain't even 3 months old yet

    He could be super social and just thinks it's another happy baby

    Dude...if you could come over, you could see how freaking social he has been.

    We have normal conversations with him in order to help with speech development and social skills, and he tries so hard (in a happy manner) to talk back with us. It's crazy that the changes when growing up aren't even that subtle.

    Dude quit growing up :(

    I only notice it after driving when getting out of the truck. It seemed to be strongest around the gas cap area, but I couldn’t rule out the engine bay either though I haven’t looked that hard. It’s like unburnt fuel yea not exhaust.

    They say it starts around 12 - 15 months iirc, what they call reflective awareness. But I don't know how they really define it, Sofia was way younger than that too when it happened at least how we saw it. Or maybe they're just trying to figure out who tf that baby is copying them in the mirror lol

    I was kind of thinking along the lines of what Zane said, probably thinks its another baby cause he did attempt to "communicate" and kept smiling at the mirror.
