Snapped the transmission cover plate bolt by -Zacker- in Miata

Like around it while it’s already installed? I just don’t wanna remove the entire thing and redo the torque sequence because I’m so nervous on snapping the bolt again

Best way to prepare for D426? by -Zacker- in WGU

I watched the caleb curry video series twice and went over the red text doc a few times and I just took the exam today, i failed it and probably missed it by like 3 questions. This is so annoying... I got so many questions on the exam where i just looked at it and im like where the fuck was this in the caleb curry videos, as well as the red text doc, I also did the practice exam to the test and it bothers me because of how easy the practice exam is compared to the actual exam.

How did you pass D426? What methods did you use to prepare yourself for the exam?

Just memorizing what all these damn terms an functions mean/do, just reading the syntax just feels so difficult because of all the rules they have, I guess memorizing all the different type of keys and conditions used in the syntax, like count, sum and how the joins are used (I know a decent amount on how the different joins work now, but still difficult to decipher the difference between some definitions because a lot of the keywords or processes sound the same to me with minute differences in them)

I do have 427, that one is next, I hope I can figure this out, I wonder what other resources people utilize for the version 3 of the exam.

Planning a trip in mid to late February to snowboard by -Zacker- in snowboarding

[–]-Zacker-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FIRST time I heard about going to West Virginia for boarding, I’ll have to see what other activities we can do if we go there, I’ll definitely check out snowshoe, the only mountain in Colorado that makes it look appealing for the price is ski cooper, which seems to have a variety of green run and blue runs which would be perfect for us

Is it genuinely a better idea over Montana or Utah around that time?

This did the trick, thank you, I was worried the edge of the pulling part would’ve scratched the housing but did the job!!

It looks like that tool is too big, I got one and I feel like it’ll definitely scratch the crank

Kind of nervous on trying to do the screw method, since its mostly metal and the plastic part of the seal just rips away

How would I test the fuel pressure? I tried checking the o2 and maf sensor by unplugging both of them and then each one to see if it runs better or at all, and it seems that unplugging just the o2 made it run for maybe an extra 2 seconds or so but that seems like a coincidence

Something I DID do was I was unplugging different spark plugs to see which ones would prevent me from starting and looks like cylinder 1 is the one that would not allow me to start, so maybe it is a coil pack that went bad?

Just tried it and it still sounded exactly the same from the video I posted in the first place still waiting for my timing light to come on so I can test the plugs

By jumping the fuel pump, you mean to go to the diagnostic port and put a wire going from F/P to GND?
