Philadelphia's Classiest Drunkards
btw, fedex sucks fat monkey *****. fckers wouldn't leave a package on my porch even though I left a note saying if a signature was needed the neighbor would sign for it. Now i have to go chasing around a fedex truck @ 5pm today so i can get this thing installed with my time off tomorrow.
I highly recommend you do NOT power wash an engine. Use water at house pressure, simple green and scrubbers. High pressure has all the potential to get in places you most certainly don't want water. Engine connectors are designed to keep moisture out, not water blasting by at 2000+ PSI. I've seen it happen to a buddies dsm after I and several others told him it was probably OK to do. It was funny until he had to buy a new electrical harness. I still feel like a dick 10 years later.
In other news, I fixed the catch can, and idled the car for 15 minutes twice. No smoke and the sound I believe is piston slap goes away once it warms up. Oil pressure seems to be good but I cant be sure since my sender unit is flakey again. I have to put a new one on tonight with a remote mount line so it doesn't vibrate to death again. I may luck out and not have to pull the engine. Compression is also up to 160 psi cold which is more along what I expect on a fresh motor.

Ben that really sucks. I had a feeling they would try and blame the problem on anything non-OEM that they could. I'm curious to see what these tricks you have are.
I'm too scared to wash my engine but it needs it badddd.
James, careful with that ultimatum, I've had that blow up in my face once before and I've also seen another person have the same thing happen to them. All I'm saying is have a plan B in place, like another job lined up, before you tell them I want a raise or I'll quit.

We used to date until we realized having viable children probably isn't a possibility.
I just watched the Top Gear season 15 special last night. I love how they (especially Clarkson) make fun of Southerners. I wonder if Brits watch the show and assume that all Americans speak in 'hillbilly'.
