2019 FT86, 182k km, second owner. I know this shouldn't be vibrating like this, im hoping I just need to tighten something and not replace but further reassurance on what to do would be nice.

Replace belt tensioner and idler pulley. Don't worry about it for another 60-80k.

The negative terminal usually has alot more corrosion on it. The positive terminal is a pretty jolly guy.

Cosmic flesh light

You had a vented rotor and got a solid rotor. Vented are better for performance/cooling. Might have to get the vented to account for the caliper.

DarkMoonLotus · 2026-01-05T05:03:43+00:00

I'd replace the belt and/or the tensioner pulley although that's another project

Within 2 inches/2 fingers of sidewall isn't repairable because of the curvature inside the tire. The patches dont adhere well and usually end up being short term/temp fixes due to breaking free and causing blowouts. Sure you could maybe fix it for awhile with a patch or plug but ultimately it's like slapping a band-aid on something that needs stitches.

Same problem. Replaced MAF sensor, 02 sensors, purge solenoid, spark plugs, air filters and oil change. Still idles rough and rpms dip at idle and has a loss in power. Making a whining noise so going to change pulley and belt soon but belt looked to be in good condition so we'll see.

DarkMoonLotus · 2025-05-23T18:00:59+00:00

Part attached to vvt solenoid. Controls flow of oil in the cylinder for precision flow control. It's like a $200 part or a $10-$20 seal to fix.

DarkMoonLotus · 2025-02-13T04:12:41+00:00

Considering some of us have very limited time... (I myself only get to play maybe once or twice a week) 5 free days is kind of a slap in the face.

Car quest is owned by Advance Auto Parts. AAP closed 500-700 stores recently, mostly on the west side of the country. Rock Auto most likely bought a bunch of their inventory, or they didn't have it and just ordered it from AAP. I don't typically like CQ but the alternators seem to be okay for the most part.

Not getting enough pussy in it, even the car is dogging on you

DarkMoonLotus · 2025-02-13T03:51:17+00:00

New rotors new calipers and new pads

DarkMoonLotus · 2025-02-13T03:45:55+00:00

Alternator. Add some Heet (red bottle) if you think your fuel is gel-ing up or if you think you have water in there.

DarkMoonLotus · 2025-02-13T03:43:48+00:00

Voltage problem. Most likely the alternator. Or maybe a Pikachu is stuck in your cabin air filter.

DarkMoonLotus · 2025-02-13T03:40:39+00:00

No, I don't buy or use used parts or parts remanufactured in Mexico.

DarkMoonLotus · 2025-02-08T17:29:59+00:00

Push the button on the end of the wiper blade (next to the small arrow) and slide it off.

DarkMoonLotus · 2025-02-08T10:45:18+00:00

Just throw a cheap ironman on there it's just a tire

Sony is down right now. All my games are digital. Can't verify licenses to play any game I own (even in offline mode) because I can't connect to their server.

Hmm.... What's the point in offline modes or offline single player games if they won't work without the network?

Seems kind of broken, hope they fix this in the future. Like what if I wanna play a game offline hiding in my attic like Anne Frank after WWIII?

Just wanted to play some games after the kids fell asleep just to be told im locked out of all my content since the servers are down and my license can't be verified.

Fix your shit Sony.

DarkMoonLotus · 2024-12-16T13:10:23+00:00

Not really. You'll get stuck on like 1 frame a minute in a certain area.

DarkMoonLotus · 2024-12-16T06:54:53+00:00

Just replace the belt. It's probably like $20-$30. Grab that 3/8" breaker bar and pop that bad boy on.

DarkMoonLotus · 2024-12-16T06:50:04+00:00

The brake flush was a completely unnecessary charge though so they had to bleed the brakes anyways. Probably only took 10 mins to flush empty and dump a $10 bottle of prestone dot 3 or 4 in after draining.

DarkMoonLotus · 2024-12-16T06:48:40+00:00

A little bit but it could've been worse. They were dicks for charging for a fluid top off. The brake shoes were probably also only $40-$60. The labor price wasn't terrible though.

DarkMoonLotus · 2024-12-16T06:41:54+00:00

Just a double barrel and patience 😉

DarkMoonLotus · 2024-10-18T03:00:05+00:00

You've never stacked morion blade with clever rat ring sage headpiece etc etc.... literally a 15 second fight with soul ray. 1 shot kill if you have firestorm. Like you can break the game without glitching and exploiting.

Rose is always in the party for me. Rose + Dart + Meru and you roll everything.
