You definatley need to come out to the next meet, we NEED a Nordic Green 8!

hiya fellas. havent been on for a couple days. I'm down here in Long Beach again and I'm loving it! I feel like I should just leave the 8 hear. Its so happy lol.
About the "not pulling you over fro fron plate" thing. IVE been pulled over for that and nothing else. It was a highway patrolman. He already had someone pulled over and there was a lot of traffic, but for whatever reason when I passed he booked it after me just to pull me over and give me a warning about needing a front plate. i played dumb and said i wasnt sure if it was an actual law or not and he gave me a warning. Crazy huh?
Before I came down here I got an oil change a LHM chrysler/jeep (I bought my car there and get free oil changes and safety/emissions for 3 years). I drove straight from there over to southtowne mall and when i got back in my car the engine light came on. So I went back to have them check it out. They claimed nothing about the oil would set off an engine light but the diagnostic test said i was running Lean. uh oh, girlfriend is calling. to be continued...

I have a sad story about oil changes... about 6 months after i got my car i took it to jiffy lube to get its 2nd oil change... most of the guys there were just messing around not paying attention to what they were doing.... so as they were pulling my car in they were also backing up a truck in ... BAMMMM!!!! they hit my car... I was PISSSS!!!!!!!!!! long story short the manager was great about the situation, did not charge me for the oil change and of course they fixed my car.... althoug that front bumper has never look the same... the guy who fix it said that V-red was a really hard color to match...

JT, if you still have extra pre-mix, I would like to buy a couple of more quarts from you. I haven't had a chance to order any, and I only have 1 left. Let me know, I am going to order some next week, but if I could 2 from you that would be cool.

You must drive that car a lot! Since our meet at Iggy's, I've only driven about a tank and a half in the 8- about 8 or 9 ounces of premix.
Of course, I've driven the Explorer about five or six tank's worth...and it gets the same mileage as the 8!

It's been the busiest 4 days off I can remember in a long time.
At least your week was for pay, Tim...mine cost me!

Sure Dave, I can spare a bottle or two. But I'm really busy on Suday, might have to catch up with you on Monday if that's OK.

bose I will definitely be at the next meet as long as it doesnt fall on a weekend that I work. The car is running fine. I have put about 3k miles on it since getting the new engine and I am hoping that there is no more drama with it. If I wasnt still in school I would be putting alot more time effort and money into mods, but sadly this will have to wait for the greater good.
Does anyone know where i can get a good premix bottle or what works well as one?

My wife got a new job and she drives it everyday! I fill up atleast once a week, depending on weekend cruises! I have school on Monday evening, but I usually get out about 7:00, it is in North Salt Lake near to your work. If you are there until 5 pm I could possible meet you there! Let me know, and Thanks
My wife has her little Subaru. She's only ever driven my 8 once in two years. Better for the marriage that way...
