I find that wrenching on cars can be super-relaxing after stressing about school/work during the week...

Worked on the Club Civic today and felt so good... It's turning out to be quite the budget racer....

It's 2am... I gotta wake up early tomorrow/today, but not sleepy at all. Maybe I should read some car manual book, so it'll make me sleepy lol

Yup, it scared the crap out of me the first time I did it. But it was worth it. Check YouTube for some videos, they're entertaining if you like horror movies. Just remember the smoke DOES go away.

I really don't know enough to say if those ignition advance data points are good or bad. They seem low to me, I'd say you should be closer to the 36 deg point at those loads and rpms, at least the 3700. Tapering off as the rpms increased of course, but I haven't studied enough tables to say for sure.

So I saw the guy from DRIVE Clean on youtube at Home Depot. I kinda regret not saying anything to him that he does great work.

Holy Crap!! You should have kidnapped him and made him detail all your cars!

You should have followed him around at least and bought all the things he bought! Then you could detail like he does!

And yet it's brand is strong as ****. It'll take maybe 5-10 years before it's declination because majority of consumers love Apple but it will go down. Can't replace a man like Steve Jobs. Sell your Apple Stock people!

Another note, the 3 greatest man made things in the world, IMO, are:

1. CARS
2. BEER & CHICKEN WANGS
3. NFL REDZONE

Love me some Sundays

EDIT: I found this funny for some reason.
