bought this shitbox because I've been putting way too many miles on my F150.

>>14680099
What car do you own and why did you have to drop the transmission? I fear the day my slave and/or master goes out, and unfortunately I own cars that are notorious for having bad clutch hydraulics.
>>
>Got stranded and had to wait 3 fucking hours for a tow last week

Pulled the Alternator and had it tested.
>Failed

I don't want to screw with it again so I ordered the new AC Delco one from amazon verses the rebuilt auto parts store alternators.
>for a bank breaking $5 more than the rebulider from vatozone
Hopefully its better.

Cleaned my car thoroughly from the inside. Vacuum cleaner, steam cleaner, loads of chemicals.

I filled gas at a gas station.

This was a long time ago but i know your pain OP

> Clutch master and slave cylinder need replacing
> FUCK
I never did it desu. My clutch would lose pressure I'd just pump the clutch pedal and it'll regain pressure, i drove it like that for like a year, until i stopped driving that truck. Still works today

Replaced upper control arms
Replacing trailing arm bushings

Finally about to get my LS400 back on the road..
Until I realized someone stole my wheels. Thanks Obama.

I had to swap the accessory timing belt and adjust my parking brake line in my mr2.

Apparently the guy I bought it from used a larger timing belt than stock and to compensate put the tension adjusting at the loosest setting like a retard which was causing massive squealing.

Changed the plugs on my shitbox Dodge.
Cylinder #2's plug threading is a bit fudged, I couldn't get my thread chaser in there to clean it out, need a 13/16 deep socket and bravery.

Cylinder #3's plug has a ton of ashy white deposit build up. I guess I know where all the oil is going.

I always get mixed opinions with the question of increasing oil viscosity.
It's an old engine from '92 with 182k miles on it, it's bound to have leaks somewhere, that's normal. Just using this car until I can buy something better.
>>
I put a new transmission in my car (was a 4, new one is a 5 speed) which this required taking both manifolds completely out to have enough room to tilt the engine, as the newer transmission is fucking huge
>>
Today I just started some of the vehicles I have around that are not street legal at the moment, let them run and warm up.

Yesterday went to a god-tier concert and heard some god-tier music. Artist was The Who!

Helped a friend install a backup camera on his new BRZ and picked up a new set of Pilot Super Sports for my STI. Overall, a good weekend.

Got my friends '82 xj (the black one) running again. He left the fuel on and it overflowed and got into the oil and when it started up it blew gas and oil mix out the airbox then died. A couple gallons of oil, a new filter, and about 30 minutes of work and it runs just fine. Also I pulled the head off of a blaster because the piston broke
