        • Agreed!

          I've lived in TX, AZ, MS, back to AZ, GA, South Korea and now OK over the last 21 1/2 yrs.

          Haven't seen snow like that since I left northern UT to go into the Air Force.

          I miss it! I actually like shoveling snow off the driveway....

            • Not today, but a couple days ago I installed the back half of my Protege console (finally). I also installed seat belt buckles from an Aspire to make installing the rear console half easier. I might take the console back out when it's warmer to paint it flat black.

                Nice work on the console I just installed this but needs a little touch up to be perfect.

                • I love that spoiler.

                  I got the oil changed and ran a little seafoam through it.

                  • Today i'm replacing exhaust pipe from cat to muffler then replacing valve cover gasket and air filter. Hopefully this will be it for a while.

                    • Got the Aqua running again.

                      Went to get it inspected and failed NOx. Double the limit on high speed run. Plenty low enough on low speed run.
                      I've put some cleaner in the tank and adjusting timing some more. I'll run it for a bit and retest. I hope I can get away without replacing the cat.

                            • Replaced rear wheel bearings. Left rear this time. When I bought it a few months ago, I had my mechanic pack both rears. The right side went out a couple of weeks later. Now the lefts. Is this common? I keep hearing that things that work on other cars don't work these cars, is this one of them? BTW, my Festy has 235K on it.

                                Replaced front crank seal. One oil leak down!!! Took 3 hours including cleanup, not too painful.
