[Alejo_NIN]

reusable? sure...of course, why not
would i recommend? HELL NO
would i do it monetarily while i get another part? maybe...

Reuseable or no...? You can still see whats left of the lock ring that wouldnt unlock.. I had to have a shop remove What was left of the CV axle

This is the part of the CV axle that wouldnt come off at first.

please if you do i recommend getting an actual temp gauge and make sure the fans can keep up, you live in jacksonville, so you must know how hot it gets in the summer.
you could boil the water and blow a radiator hose or something when the A/C is on.

Because, The fans that are in there now are almost keeping the car cool. Its just when the AC is on and if the car sits and runs for 30 minutes it gets pretty hot.

Discovered that the belt is slipping off the a/c compressor pulley again. 2nd time since the belts were replaced... Both times just has slid off about one rib...

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

Anyone?

So....determined the awful vibration in the trunk when the sub was in....the stock kenwood finally operated.

Need a suggestion for a decent sounding and cheap 8" to run off the stock amp.

hey guys, I have noticed that when I go around turns.. turning left only, that the oil light goes on.. I just changed the filter and oil a few weeks ago, and even added some extra a few days ago, but the oil light still comes on.. would that light come on if the tranny oil is low too? or what do you guys think could be causing this? the oil is the right weight and full synthetic and all that

no only if the oil lvl is to low

hmm that's weird because I checked the oil level and it's completely full, maybe this type of oil, I think it's Castrol GTX full synthetic or something that is just a little thicker or something I dono.. hmm

Then the only other thing I can think of would be the connection to the sensor could be loose.

What kinda Oil filter is it? Reason I ask is I had a local buddy with a boosted protege that used a k&n and his oil light came on randomly till he changed it.

Or a Fram. NEVER use a Fram. I had to rebuild the motor in my 240sx last year (it had been torn down and rebuild a few years earlier, so it was basically new) because I used a Fram filter (they were out of Purolator's) and it failed and blew all the filter material into the motor. The crank was OK, but it ruined the head that I had spent hours port-matching and polishing.

I've never had a issue with fram filters. Then again I dont use the problematic cheap fram filters. The toughgaurds are prety good. They never had that cardboard issue like the cheap ones did.
