    Paint Brand?

    To be honest, on a non show car the stuff Summit Racing sells is not that bad. Color won't match the OE perfectly, but if you are painting the whole car it won't matter.

    Random battery indicator light

    New alt should arrive this afternoon. Interesting info to add though. Yesterday on the way home from work, the radio went off. Weird. So I shut off the headlights and the radio came back on. Battery light was NOT on when it happened. Anyway, made it home and shut it off. After about 10 minutes I...

    Hood Paint Repair Ideas

    Heck if you do good prep you can put on Rustoleum and it looks fine.

    Random battery indicator light

    I just drove it a few minutes ago and noticed it only comes on between 1000 and 2000 RPM. If I am driving say below 70. If it comes on and I shift to neutral and give a quick rev, light goes off. Sounds like alternator to me as well. I doubt I can find my receipt and I don't remember where I...

    Random battery indicator light

    This thing will come on while driving down the road, but when I come to a stop it goes off. Might come back on, might not. The battery is about 3 years old and so is the alternator. I can't remember the exact voltages, but with the car off it showed around 12.3 ish volts and with it idling it...

    Injector question

    No, it went down the intake. I have no leak currently, but I am guessing that is a very real possibility in the future. I also figure that little sucker went past the valves and is melted in the cat converter.

    Injector question

    I changed all the o-rings on my injectors a week ago. Yesterday #4 started leaking so I popped the rail off to re-seat. All the injectors came out with the rail and popped out of the manifold as well. One of them the o-ring and the little plastic(?) collar below the o-ring came off and were down...

    water in spare tire well

    There are small trim pieces between the trunk lid and the top. They are about an inch wide. Pop those out, clean them and the valley they came from and apply sealant. Mine did the same thing and when I pulled those out (they literally almost fell out) there was a small crack under them. Sealed...

    Aren't you a little too old for that car? (Answer)

    Anybody asking that question probably is either a douche driving his dad's car, or a car bought with dad's money. Most people understand hot rods are not cheap. You need a decent job to be able to afford to buy/build/drive one. Go to just about any car show and the nicest cars are owned by older...

    What have you done to your house today

    DISCLAIMER: I had zero input on paint color. My 7 and 8 year olds picked it out. Would be awesome if anyone was a Dolphins fan..... but hey. Getting close. I have to put on the last section on the roof then shingle it. Then it will be the railing, windows, a few small side pieces, whatever else...
