Took the new Michelins and used BBS wheels to the tire shop to get them mounted and balanced Well; the wheels are so bent and out of round he refused to mount the tires unless I got the wheels repaired; going to cost another $500 on top of the $600 I paid for them! PMO!!  Maybe go to used steelies and good used rubber! | | | | | 11-19-2011, 12:11 AM | #1809 | | Member Join Date: Oct 2011 Location: Iowa Posts: 56 |

went and spent the day with Cali-ti and wrenched on my beloved Zippy. removed the transmission pan...changed the inner filter but decided to wait to remove the old gasket...i kind of got sick to my stomach and felt nauseous for some unknown reason. then we removed the power steering reservoir and both lines...new shiny parts installed! (thanks guys!) replaced a/c belt and serpentine belt in both Zippy and E's ti. all in all...it was a good day working on cars with my friend and his lovely wife.  (what a cook!) __________________

I replaced my head light bulbs with Sylvania Ultras which go for about $90 for four bulbs. They throw so much more light than standard bulbs. Worth every penny in my opinion. | | | | | 11-22-2011, 03:59 AM | #1813 | | Junior Member Join Date: Nov 2011 Location: Canada Posts: 12 |  micro filters
