Out With The Old

Finally got rid of the last of my complimentary full tank of gas. It was 91 octane and I have filled it with 94 octane Chevron and reset the ECU. Its learning.

Very slight hint of exhaust noise if I have my windows down. Stock sounding if windows up.

just did a transmission and differential oil change, and for some reason the transmission drain plug didnt have gasket on it. i even looked in the oil catch bucket to see if had fell in there and it wasnt. luckily i had already order a new set of gaskets in advance.

Look carefully. The factory gasket tends to stuck to the drain plug looking like part of the plug. This happened to me.
