    Whine from left side of engine near belts

    Oh ok. I just thought that would cause the belt to slip if it was on the inside of the belt. Would something like this work: <a href = "http://www.autozone.com/autozone/accessories/Coastal-1-lb-453-592-g-uniplex-premium-high-temperature-grease/_/N-25ap?itemIdentifier=561720_0_0_">high temp...

    Motor sounds like the Mazdaspeed 3's when they have a bad VVT Actuator???

    Can someone post the size of the bolts for the stock mani, if they just happen to know it. Was gonna just pull one once I got to the place to buy them, but will be a few days before I go get them, so figured I would just ask here to see if anyone knew.

    Seafoam Help Please

    Just do it at the regular time. Most of the deposits should of come out the exhaust when you did it. I would not be late on your oil change though, just in case.

    Seafoam Help Please

    Dont know about the BOV part of it, but yeah oil should be changed soon after using it. Doesn't have to be right away, but it will dirty up the oil quicker. I have read about people doing it a few days before they plan on doing an oil change.

    car bogging down. relocate maf w/ smic setup?

    Is it a good idea to relocate the MAF without a BOV? or is that just when u have a BOV? Also, like Wackys said, where should it go with a SMIC setup? Looking to go FMIC sometime, but gonna be a bit. Got a baby on the way.
