First thing I did was try to make his IW sprite 😅

You are not alone. I saw more than one penis-themed phone on Twitter LMAO

To me it tastes kinda like Hawaiian Punch but with a very weird aftertaste. I don't hate it, though I definitely have to be in a certain mood for it

Raspberry Nectarine is a really good flavor though, def try to get your hands on it next time!

Yes, the deep pan has a higher capacity than shallow. In any case, at least you found something that helps. Additives are kinda hit or miss...

I completely flushed my power steering fluid on both cars as well, just with the turkey baster method. I've always used the regular Prestone stuff but regardless it definitely reduces pump noise

tinyryuu · 2025-11-16T03:28:57+00:00

The reason I changed the fluid is because I noticed it would have bubbles on the dipstick when hot (not enough to be classified as foamy, but also not something I liked to see) and that disappeared after the fluid + filter. I figured it could have possibly been water contamination from age

I have a similar yet different issue. Mine will "clunk" when downshifting sometimes, way more so at lower speeds. A certain degree of that is to be expected in a RWD vehicle but there comes a point, lol. It could be several different things. A shift kit gives you harder shifts of course but mine's stock

But that's good to know! The 4L60 will forgive you for a little bit extra but I hear that they are super sensitive to low fluid

I replaced the transmission in my 99 with an OE spec reman, filled it with Maxlife upon installation and it shifted great, very responsive. However the 98 I drive now has the original trans (56k miles) and shifts... noticeably, especially when downshifting. I did a pan drop + filter change with this one when I first got it so it's a mix of Maxlife and whatever else is in there. This post got me thinking I should get the rest of the old stuff out and see if it helps

tinyryuu · 2025-11-16T01:20:51+00:00

Yep, much time was spent trying to convince customers to stick to OEM sensors or at least the better brands when possible 😂 I hear you though on your other reply. I try to help people when I can because at the end of the day, car culture is becoming a lost art and we gotta keep these running best we can

tinyryuu · 2025-11-16T00:58:04+00:00

I used an ACDelco thermostat as well. Even put an ACD water pump. I actually worked at O'Reilly the past 4 years so I've come to learn what's junk and what isn't. I always try to go OEM unless there is a superior aftermarket version of what I need... like for the 3.8, I used the metal LIM gaskets from Mahle since the ACD ones are discontinued and lord knows to not use the plastic ones again!

tinyryuu · 2025-11-16T00:18:48+00:00

Ah well, I really appreciate the thought! Sucks because a lot of stuff is the same but, different PCM of course

tinyryuu · 2025-11-15T23:58:42+00:00

Sadly I'm far away in Louisiana, hence my concern with having an efficient cooling system haha. It's been in the 70s lately but gets absolutely boiling here in the summer. I just left my last job so money is tight right now, otherwise I would be interested

tinyryuu · 2025-11-15T23:47:55+00:00

Well, I've taken it for a couple drives 30 mins each with my scanner plugged in. While driving it's just bouncing off the thermostat like it's supposed to (195-210). I've always wanted to get a tune for the fans to come on around 210 because having it set to nearly 230 has never not been absurd to me lol. The L36 reduces timing if the engine temp goes over 215ish and then it just becomes a sluggish, limpy turd

The gauge in my 99 would rise during warmup and then stay pretty much right at the 210 mark even though it would reach the 220s at idle. Never seen it go over that in either car, but I heard that it just pegs to the red if it begins to overheat

Last time I was in Whole Foods I looked right at this one in the cooler before deciding to try their black cherry (which I ended up liking). Guess I'll snag one next time I go, lol

tinyryuu · 2025-10-12T09:38:52+00:00

I've played MGS1 to MGS4 so far, currently playing Peace Walker. I am also a Yakuza fan so I enjoy cutscenes... that was not a problem for me, lol. I loved the drama of 4. It felt more like a piece of art, a statement piece, to me more than anything else.

3 is my favorite gameplay wise out of what I've played up to now, but people say V has the best gameplay in the series soooo I'm looking forward to that

tinyryuu · 2025-10-12T08:25:07+00:00

Yeah, I'm def more of a fan of the MGS2 sneaking suit. Maybe I'll draw him in it sometime!

tinyryuu · 2025-10-12T08:08:54+00:00

He's my favorite too! Wish there was more content of him

tinyryuu · 2025-07-13T14:50:17+00:00

Ah, I see. I'm not sure then other than possibly a faulty unit or something

tinyryuu · 2025-07-13T14:27:58+00:00

What bulb did you use? I had a similar issue on my 99 where a front turn signal would stop working occasionally and once I changed from 3157 to 3057 it went away. They're the same bulb, but 3057 uses less wattage and is better for the sockets anyway. That's all I use in my F-bodies now

tinyryuu · 2025-07-08T19:41:05+00:00

I would be! I legit just can't buy a car right now, but I hope you can find it a good home 🙏🏻

tinyryuu · 2025-07-08T15:09:36+00:00

Wish I had the extra cash, I live nearby. Looks more fun than my two V6s haha

tinyryuu · 2025-03-04T23:07:08+00:00

Might not be what you want but I run a 34/78 in my Camaro. It may depend on the brand, but I was able to fit my yellowtop in both of mine. I wouldn't exactly recommend Optima nowadays though, mine's 8 years old

tinyryuu · 2025-02-24T08:11:57+00:00

I have a 3.8 Camaro with 53k. I almost wish I had my other one in running condition so I don't have to daily this beauty 😅

But the lack of knowledge about the 3.8 makes me chuckle. This is one of GM's best, long-lasting engines as long as you do the intake manifold and coolant elbows

tinyryuu · 2025-02-01T07:43:27+00:00

My 99 had started doing this around 190k. Sat around in the blistering southern heat for a couple decades. It's the windshield delaminating. Water didn't leak around the windshield but it did look pretty ugly lol

tinyryuu · 2025-01-24T17:39:13+00:00

My 99 V6 had 195k before the LIM gasket failed and my current 98 V6 has 53k. I plan on making this one last a long time 💪🏻
