    Jasper Engines & Transmissions

    Only installed in customers vehicles. Can't vouch for longevity, but I believe their quality and warranty service is better than years past.

    What did you do to your car today?

    I can't decide which is worse the dust on the car inside, or the sht from the trees outside. Can't wash everything fast enough.

    SCT Tuning Software

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't these devices manufactured and sold with the stipulation "off road use only "? Which makes the violation the responsibility of the end user, not the manufacturer?

    What did you do to your car today?

    Got my garage torch bottles exchanged today. If it keeps raining, will get my broken manifold studs out and finally put my gd trans in. Spent the whole summer fixing other ppls *****. Anyone else have a garage that is literally a dust factory?

    Chatterbox, Augusta, NJ

    Sad. Granted, I never managed to get up there as much as I would like.

    +1. The Prius most likely has an electric parking brake which is self adjusting.

    What did you do to your car today?

    Thought about wiping the dust off it. Was in the garage anyway, had to hook up my welder/generator to run the house because the power is out. Again. Maybe someday JCP&L will actually have their subcontractors cut down dead trees before they fall on the wires. Or not. At least the cable still works.

    Random misfire (P0300 & others + sometimes no AC)

    I'm not the smartest guy ever, but I don't think a compression issue would be intermittent. In my personal experience, intermittent means electrical. Could still be vacuum related. May be worth getting a smoke test. Your friend with the scanner should be able to actuate the iac and egr in...

    What did you do to your car today?

    Walked past it about 500 times while grabbing tools and parts from the garage. Trying to finish a customer's truck in the driveway. Someday I'll have time to put my trans in.

    Random misfire (P0300 & others + sometimes no AC)

    Vaccum leak? Could be dirty or sticking IAC or EGR. Rubbed harness behind heads? This is interesting, please keep us updated.

    Hour of power clock

    Cool! I should start doing stuff like this and selling them. Probably make more on this than the actual repairs.

    Rear mount turbo build

    Probably the exact same way that I know that. Checking becomes a habit after a few times.

    Rear mount turbo build

    I still laugh and or smile every time I read this. Welding isn't super difficult. Practice enough and you'll get the hang of it. Can we assume that you got a MIG welder? If so, flux core or solid wire with gas? Few quick tips: uncoil the leads completely. Don't take just what you need and...

    What did you do to your car today?

    Don't we all? I'm by no means a tournament level fisherman, but could probably be a world champion contender when it comes to untangling backlashes.

    What did you do to your car today?

    Wow. I'm impressed. Call me spoiled, but I cannot imagine life without multiple vehicles. What lb test? Braided line is insanely strong. I have 50lb test on one of my baitcasters. I can get my lure back, and usually get the tree it's stuck in too.

    Forgot how quick the MM is from a roll

    It's okay, not a mustang. Crowds of bystanders need not be worried.

    Forgot how quick the MM is from a roll

    That light has the shortest green and longest red in the history of traffic lights. I've done the same maneuver myself countless times. Missed the show this week. Worked late again.

    Pitman Arm Torque Specs

    Nope. I don't. I'm fully aware of what it means. With pressure applied to the puller, hit the pitman arm on the opposite side from the "tie rod end". The idea is that the impact causes momentary expansion of the hole and reduces the friction between the splines of the steering gear shaft and...
