Wow....what would cause a hole like that to be worn thru? What does the "other" part look like? That would be a serious vacuum leak!!

 

The cause was all clearance of the radiator fan motor housing rubbing and hitting as the motor rocked and day to day driving. It was so much of a vacuum leak i had an erratic idle and overheating. I am pleased to say I have the factory tube back on and the car is running perfect and I am also needing to get the K&N part number for the HAI filter.

 

Well atleast you got it fixed.

I know you've been busy with other things but have you gotten the megans installed yet?

 

The megans they are on a UPS truck somewhere

 

Waiting for them to get there is harder than putting them in.

 

They have been delivered but between my moms business and my dads and home we have no clue where they are at.

 

Just to update everyone since I can't seem to find time on the computer lately.
The tires and rims are my first mod. Took me a long time to settle on them. Chris your correct. Kosei K1 TS with Eagle F1 All Season. I also today put the Sequential Third Brake light mod and the Window,DSC and Fog Light cards in.
Now need to do something else down the road.

 

How much $$$ you want to spend?

 

As of right now, the pass is closed, and Steve is stuck at home.

 

He just wanted the day off.

 

Steve said it never rained, so he didn't know anything happened until he looked out this morning, and everything was white. I told him that it was now snowing at YLP.

 

Chris, you just hit 2,000 posts on this thread.

 

WOW So I did, now I'm only about 1000 behind you.

So now that steve wont be there today are you just going to play on NAM?

 

He will be here once the pass opens. I need to finish up doing inventory. Not much left though.

 

Does he have chains for his mini?

 

Nope, and never will. Pass is open, and he should be almost here.

 

driving in the snow all you need is some good all season or my preference tires that are specificly formulated for flexibility in temperatures below 40* and are also known as snow tires. The key to driving in deep snow, slush or whatever form of near to frozen water with DSC off to keep momentum and perform really good throttle modulation.

 

The key in CA is to have the CHP open the road or allow you on it.

Steve

 

I just drive my Jeep.

 

It seems like way to much work to live in the snow.

 

Its alot of fun when you mix in some E-brake around some corners.

 

Yea, this past weekend I went for a drive up in the hills and it had frozen the night before. So in some areas there was still ice and frost on the ground. So it was fun at low speeds to see how the car would act when you hit the breaks hard or got it sideways thru a turn.

 

Cliff was talking about it when he was here.

 

yea, it looked like he was having a lot of fun. You need to come with us when you get your car fixed.

 

Believe me, I'm ready.

It's Casa time, if anyone wants to join us.
