Was with 1st Tanks, now I'm an instructor at MCCES. Just did my plugs, one new coil, dropped my oil pan and sealed it with black RTV, and replaced the factory Cat as well. Now I have to hunt down a solenoid, clean and reinstall with the hopes I don't have to buy a new one.

Your SSV opens with your secondary injectors. The VDI is an air resonance thing that kicks in way up around 7000. Air pump only fires on cold startup.

Hey there guys! If there any trolls from the 29 Palms area that want to meet up, myself and Ronnie will be meeting with a few other modified car guys at Stater Bros on Hwy 62/29 Palms Hwy. The time is still relatively uncertain. Ronnie and I are going to try and be there shortly after dark.

I know it's been a while but thanks for the advise everyone, actually pulling the SSV this weekend. I cringe every time I see a young Marine on base probably a student with new tags that probably just bought it at Rad Wheels. The last one I talked to flooded it and had it parked for a month.

Roll call for those in the stumps still? Mine is still inop due to a tranny gone bad. I know Ronnie is still here. What about you Daniel? Theres a kid in A Co that has a black one, and someone that keeps parking at my barracks with a silver one. And I keep seeing that sexy R3 randomly around base...

Still in town
Still here, just did half of a brake and rotor job adding slotted rotors not as much by choice as it was just a good deal. About to do a radiator replacement as the shity plastic factory one broke when I replaced the overflow bottle and I just noticed my repair didn't hold as well as I thought it did. I talk to the guy with the black one, he has no idea what he bought, or didn't when I talked to him. I've noticed several new ones on base recently too. Every plan on that trans replacement let me know, I'm down to watch, turn a wrench or two, and scratch my head with you.

Need help, anyone have a stock right rear capiler they wouldn't mind parting with. I just replaced my roters and brake pads and noticed the seal was all screwed up, and a quick drive confirmed it, my brake pads are rubbing horrible. I rechecked all my work and everything is good except the seals. I'm going to try to do a rebuild kit, but I would love to have a back up option. Someone who's done an upgrade to a big brake kit let me know.
On another note, replaced my radiator the other day, pretty easy, hit me up if anyone needs help on there's.
