  1. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
  2. Yea and in my shop we have folks like osha, and the safety board. And the Iowa Safety Comittie breathing down our backs about all types of safety. If they needed it they would be required to wear it.
  3. Weve got guys wire and stick welding in our shop with 2 and 3 phase stuff and they dont use leathers. Long sleve shirts with some type of sleve pullover they use. Basically just extra protection. If you go to a prax air or any other type welding and cutting outfit i bet they have something similar.
  4. Now my car wont start, warm or cold weather without giving it gas. The dead spots when driveing im thinking its connected. Dirty fuel injectors, clogged fuel filter, what else could it possibly be.
  5. At my apartment i have a garage i rent with all my tools in it. Ive worked in conditions like yours my friend and really dont have a desire to do so again.
  6. How would you feel, and how long would it take to pull and reseal my whole engine. Im tired of smelling oil and antifreeze burning. What do ya think.

     

    Clean out your PM Box man.

  7. I put NGK plugs and wires in my suby but any other POS truck or chevy i owned i just threw in some champions. Seemed to work ok. My wallet is what usually dictates my purchases.
  8. I know im pissed, i was like is there any other weekend i can work to not half to work this one. They said no they need to be shipped out buy saturday afternoon and saturday is the only day to do it. Sucks royaly i wanted to have some fun. Jesus im mad, anyways hope you guys have fun.
  9. Probally not going to be able to attend now:mad: but please the rest of you go and have fun for me. And take lots of pictures.
  10. Well with everything that happened my subaru was up on car ramps faceing downward for 3 days. Well i noticed on my way to work that yet again i have the dead spot problem but i was kicking blue smoke out the back pipe. Im wondering if this is do to the angle it was sititng for 3 days or because its not running right. New plugs and wires, cleaned maf. Any suggestions. I should add that the smoke went away after a while but just something new i noticed. Ben
  11. So dennis did sign up, couldnt send him a pm because he refuses to empty his box.
  12. You live in the subaru capital. You can pick up a front bumper for nothin. Soon youll be swapin those Steelies for some factory wagon wheels, or pugs. LSD rear, Disc Brakes, STI engine, Nos Fogger System. Oh wait thats my wish list.
  13. Check out Meet and Greet for more Details.
  14. HOORAY HOORAY HOORAY!!!! You're notice is here for MudCoast! That's right--no more guessing when the Road Rally team is going to call it.... we told you we'd give you 48 hours notice--well.... we're doubling that! SO. Go to http://www.roadrallycharities.com and REGISTER for MUDCOAST. This is a FREE event! We'll be meeting for breakfast at Waveland Cafe near the Fairgrounds on the EAST SIDE. We'll be there around 9:00am. We'll be setting out on our MudCoast adventure at 10:30am. YOU MUST BE THERE BY 10:30!!! The ship sets sail... we're no waiting... no matter how many of the Road Rally cell phones you know--we're outta there!!! There will be 3 awards for this year's MudCoast. The "No Prayer to Finish" AWARD If you bring you're Neon with Blizzaks you'll definitely qualify for this award The "Good Samaritan" AWARD You qualify for this award, even though you're mocking the Neon because you're in your Series III Land Rover. But your heart softens when you see that Neon/Blizzak set up up to its axles in mud and you wench them out... You are... a Good Samaritan. The "Dirtiest Vehicle" AWARD While the Series III is wenching out the Neon, you decide to wreak havoc on the Level B road and shoot mud everywhere... and you qualify for the dirtiest vehicle award. However, you shoot all that mud on the Neon. So most likely, if not careful, the Neon goes away with 2 awards that day. We'll be getting back into town later afternoon on Saturday. The dirtier the better. If you want anyone to meet up with us, we'll be finishing at our favorite place in town--Skybox Lounge. We'll be presenting awards, watching raw video, and sharing pictures from the day at 6:00pm sharp at Skybox Lounge. THIS EVENT IS FREE!!!!! So come out and enjoy a crazy day in the beautiful world of Level Bs. BUT WE CANNOT STRESS--THESE ARE "ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK" ROADS. WE ARE NOT LIABLE. WE PROBABLY WON'T HAVE ANYTHING OTHER THAN OUR OWN WENCHES. YOU MAY HAVE TO CALL A TOW TRUCK. THEY DON'T LIKE IT WHEN WE DO THIS. THEY LIKE TO CHARGE LOTS WHEN WE GET STUCK! SO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE, AND KNOW THIS EVENT. NO WHINERS WHEN YOU GET STUCK. ONLY LOTS OF SMILES AND LAUGHS! This is NOT a speed event. In fact, sometimes the slower the better. Your goal is to take lots of pictures, to finish the course, and to make it back to Skybox to share stories and see who won the awards. Go to http://www.roadrallycharities.com and sign up today. See you Saturday morning!!! Ryan & Kevin & Dan & Julia & Jeff & Susan & Eric & Jason & Steve @ Road Rally Charities Ok Iowa or anyone who can and wants to come guys. Mud Coast Run, i am attending. Now if someone wants to ride with me koo or bring your own rig. Brent, Dennis, Mick cummon guys you know you want to do this.
  15. Did you have any rubbing issues, what size tire did you run. Looks like a blast.
  16. welcome welcome welcome. Be glad you didnt get the auto. These are fun little cars expecially with the 4wd. Will blow your truck away in the winter. Check previous maintence with the previous owners but these vehicles like mostly stock components. NGK plugs and wires. Factory caps and rotors. Soon youll be looking into a disc swap and EJ motors. We like to see pictures so POST EM.
  17. I thought i heard from gd that the electric fans came with all cars but when you had AC the factory added a clutch fan.
