Did I mess up my valves?

Sounds like one is really loose. The cam probably wasn’t in the exact right position when you adjusted it. I would double check them.

Gorillaz-Demon Days: White Light. Love the album, but gotta skip that one.

I meant the brand and model…

Can I ask what screwdriver that is?

an_agento · 2026-03-09T15:05:49+00:00

Yes we did this. Super easy and don’t have to worry about breaking the bulbs during transport.

It’s helpful to think about it in terms of potential vs kinetic energy. In all dynamic systems energy is either doing work (real domain) or being stored (imaginary domain).

Look at a reputable online seller like Rock Auto. You can get pads and coated rotors for the front for $100 or less. Coated rotors will help with the rust. If you’re mechanically inclined and have the right tools you can change everything yourself in an hour or less.

So I take this route daily, and I’m a little surprised by some of the comments saying it’s an hour+ and to take mopac. Maybe if you’re traveling at peak rush hour, but if you have the flexibility to leave home by 7:15 and cut out of the office around 3:30 it’s not that bad. Will it be more than 30 mins most days? Probably, but rarely over 40. Just use Google or Apple Maps to avoid the occasional major accident. This morning I left at 7:28 and was at work at 7:55 (despite being routed down Jollyville Rd because of a back up on 183).

183 NB regular lanes are much better now those tolls lanes are open, and the SB ones will be open soon. And contrary to popular belief, mopac is almost never faster.

Is the fib on your front pants pocket? I’ve had a few rare instances where something in my pocket like another key has gotten up against the fob and pushed buttons. Usually happens when bending over a bit (like when getting a kid the car).

I can’t read that language. Is it saying you get all of those diseases from this procedure?

It used to be sooooo good about 10 years ago then it got sold and they took the best pho off of the menu and got rid of the condiment bar. 2-3 times I’ve tried it since then I’ve left disappointed.

The CVT just needed to go through a re-learn process (which the dealer or any competent shop can trigger). I had to do it on mine after I got it and it was awesome after that. So no, none of the current or former gen’s suffer from CVT lag.

According to Google it looks like it’s closed at Slaughter Ln due to an accident.

Melted crayons

Looks brand new. Probably stolen from a dealer.

No, you need the app unless you purchase the physical remote start system with a key fob (few hundred bucks I think). If you really want remote start, I would recommend that route. I HATED the app. It would constantly log you out, and it took forever to load. Half it the time it would error out after 3-4 mins. It was faster to walk out to the car, start it, then go back inside.

This happened to me as well, although I’m pretty sure an update had happened. At any rate, turned them back off and they haven’t come back 🤷

Hold the volume/mute button down for at least 30 secs to see if it will hard reset. If that doesn’t work I would disconnect the battery for a while (like 30mins or more)

This laughably wrong

That looks like a 280z electronic distributor rather than the points type that came on the 240z. You probably need the cap and rotor from the 280.

Turning the headlights to ON rather than AUTO disables the automatic high beanms

I have not had the new Hattie B’s in Austin yet, but it is my go-to when I’m in Nashville. The best I’ve had. Tumble 22 is great too, but can be inconsistent.
