What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[DriverOne]

Pu241, you are incorrect! That is not the location of Area Festy-1. Htchbck, Ms. Scarlet is still at home, and still bleeding. Blue Lightning is waiting, quietly. 'Twas I who was there! Now the tables have turned! That being said, will you help me with all these tables?

[kartracer46]

That is Madness Central and soon NCstiva central

Oh, and what have you done to blue lightning, eh? Surely not as much as I, sir!

[avitsefdrof]

coil and ICM

I put in a new Ignition Control Module recently after it died at a stoplight.....real convenient. Put a coil in first and after that didn't do it I picked up an ICM and bam! Fired right up and Stiv is back in action.

Next will be all four struts and coils....LCA's, rotors, front brakes, wheels and tires.
Peace.

Cut holes in the back for the 6.5 speakers, Removed the eyebrows for modification. Removed the third brake light for modification.

[kumalaba]

what mods r u doing to the eyebrows jerry!

[Team Lightning]

Surely not that Scarlet chick... cause that would mean... blue lightning is out of the garage?

Negative! Lightning has the interior out except for the seats and dash, Headlights out, Eyebrows off, I got the dent in the right quarter panel mostly out. I'm planning to have it back together for Spring Festiva L.

I threatened to push it into a lake if it got lippy with me again.

Yesterday it was an ambulance in 8 inches of snow and ice on unplowed roads for one of the dogs that managed to injure himself pretty well, it was slidy fun, but my pass. seat cover has blood on it now...

Wow, that means you paid(?) to have the head gasket changed unnecessarily after people told you to check compression first? Ugh. Sorry dude.

I did it myself, for less than $30. It wasn't unnecessary, as now it runs better and burns less oil than before. It also isn't leaking externally anymore.

How well/bad are you driving? Do you think your e-brake is slightly on?

e-brake is long gone.... both cable ends snapped months ago. Driving I know has a part in it, it has been very cold, tons of idling, and lots of wheelspin.

Aren't you glad you didn't bother to check compression and see if your car actually needed a head gasket



Oh... wait, maybe that wasn't such a good idea to automatically assume it was the HG's fault... maybe that $30 on a comp tester would have been well spent after all?

Read above. It definitely needed it regardless of a compression test result.

I think the jist of what they're implying is that if it needs a valve job/valves/re-ring etc the head comes right back off again.

You know you can easily fix that e-brake for under $10, with a couple lengths of aircraft cable and a few crimps........

Yeah I've been meaning to try to rig something up, but meh. Now that it's actually cold and I'd like to leave my car running places, I might get off my rump and do it LOL
