    bent and installed new clutch hard line, smashed my finger lifting the transmission, got the system somewhat bled, broke it in with a massive 2nd gear burnout.

      Got cut off on the highway today... by a dumbass going 35 in a 65... Slammed on the brakes and the second worst outcome possible happened...


      My IPhone slid into the center vent cavity in my wagon, and lodged itself deep into the heater core housing...


      This has spawned the MX3 dash swap I have been dreading... I've had this dash in my shed for over a year, waiting for the opportunity to install it. Well today's event was apparently that opportunity since I had to remove my dash to retrieve my cell phone. Awesome.


      Looks like I have my work cut out for me, 'cause this **** doesn't fit. Good thing I have a plan.

                        Front or rear of engine? I'd hose it all clean with brake cleaner and compressed air then run it to find exact location and gauge how sever of a leak it is... Might be main seals and if from the backside, a leaking oil pressure sender or oil filter/oil cooler.

                          Bought a $5 universal battery tie-down from VatoZone. Fits like a charm and looks soooo much better than zip ties. lol

                            I've decided that my car is a girl, she's picky as hell, won't listen to me, always wants to fight me, and when i give her presents it's never good enough and she always wants more.

                              rear. tranny side. I see a trail of dust/ dirt / grime from where it may be coming from. Its not bad, but its enough to have a nice coat of oil on my undercarriage. Not low on oil yet. But at idle I can smell oil since its on the bottom of the catalytic converter
