    What did you do to your car today?

    Well, was technically yesterday but went with my brother to look at and ultimately pick up his early birthday present. Happy birthday and welcome to the Panther family.

    Extreme pre ignition runs like crap!

    +1 Sounds like a lean condition. I'm doubting it's a vacuum leak, but not impossible. Could be a sticky float or some gunk in a jet. I clean lots of ethanol crud out of carburetors these days.

    06 gm wipers wont shut off

    Model? Had to replace the wiper motor on an envoy recently. Water got into the housing. Caused the washer to pump constantly. Aftermarket motor and transmission assembly was fairly cheap and easy to replace.

    Sentimental Snapshot

    My father's 1988 gmc pickup was approaching 333k. I reset the trip odometer at just the right time so it would also read 333.3 at the same time. My dbag older brother borrowed the truck and I missed it by about a dozen miles. Was quite upsetting to 17yo me.

    Sentimental Snapshot

    I did the same thing as my 2007 f350 climbed through the #s. Started with 11111, and so on. Do it with most of my vehicles. Few months ago the excursion hit 122,222. Just something satisfying about the numbers being the same.

    Blast from the past - who knows what this is?

    No guess. Adjustment tool for heavy duty clutches. Have 2 in the service truck. One is bent to clear exhaust. Most newer clutches have the adjuster built in and only require a socket or wrench.

    1 of 525 ever built >> 2007 Shelby Crown Victoria V12 - $65000 (Las Vegas)

    Top speed of 201mph? Maybe on paper. Definitely not anywhere there's air resistance. Gotta love craigslist.

    Correct again. They work great on brass 90s in tight spaces.

    Blast from the past - who knows what this is?

    Yessir. This particular application was for the parking brake on a F700. Hydraulically released spring brakes. They somehow managed to break the control valve.

    Blast from the past - who knows what this is?

    D*mmit! I just use a drill bit or the paper gauge that comes in the rebuild kit. I have some good ones to post. Still use lots of them.

    Prius GMC Pick Up

    I had a brand new 2007 f350. Xl, with power windows and mirrors. Was dsg with the black grille. I absolutely loved it, and couldn't for the life of me understand why they changed in 2008. Have been less and less impressed with the looks of all newer trucks since the early-mid 2000s. At this...

    Blast from the past - who knows what this is?

    Not positive, best guess is gauge for timing chain guide wear. Need to adjust carburetors and distributors? I gotcha covered. Somewhere around here there's one or two with a flex end. And a bunch more distributor wrenches.

    + 1 on carb adjusting tool. The points dwell adjusting tool has a bend. I'll post a pic if I remember where mine is.

    Blast from the past - who knows what this is?

    Dang it, im late. Have a few of those valve spring compressors myself. And yes, my compression tester is compatible with the shop air hose. I'm guessing seal installer for this one. Or it would be if it were in my garage.

    Blast from the past - who knows what this is?

    You mean you don't let the fuel pump drive rod fall down, fumble about, cuss a bit, smear it with grease and then stuff it back in there? Looks like a tool for a brake caliper piston. You know, those annoying ones that have to be turned back in.

    Sorry I couldn't make it. Have a lot of stuff to get caught up on before snow flies. Hope everyone had a great time. Maybe I'll get my sh.t together by next year.

    What did you do to your car today?

    Finished replacing the rusty/ leaking power steering lines on the excursion. Now I can go back to compensating everywhere I go.
