General Disarray Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 I went to the Junkyard Thursday and got the bracket that snapped. Tonight I'll clean it and spray it black, then install it under the work light. I just feel at home when working on a car with a flashlight and a work light now. Probably because of all the times I've had to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithwicks Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 figured out that i most likely need to replace the pcv system...oil bubbling up when i take off the cap is a sign that it might be clogged correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
