thought this thread would be fun. just post what you're doing to your car whether it be maintenance, installing new parts, etc.

this way if anyone needs help working on their car, they can ask those who have done a specific mod or maintenance. it'll also help to remind people that they need to change their oil or spark plug haha.

didn't know what forum to put this in because there's no forum for general tech, so i'll just post it here.







right now: i'm replacing my valve seals with head still on the car. using my homemade Lowe's leakdown tester. it's not as hard as i thought.

yeah. the ass-end of my car is all black
damn, sounds like we have the same problem. just finished the valve seals on my bad cylinder and the leakdown numbers are still high. that's not good. guess i'll have to wait til i start it up to see if it still smokes. if its the rings i'm gonna be pissed. i really don't wanna take my engine out again.
