are they going to paint both sides?

I'd hate to have a new car with a different colour under the hood.

Jon are we able to met up and redo the case relearn. I don't think the engine was hot enough when we did it. Car drove a bit differently after we did the case relearn tonight.

Meet up tomorrow that is. Since I'm still in Calgary.

Sylver01

for sure!

just give me a call.

So I was getting around 24-28 mpg while doing 150 on highway 2 and 16 to Lloydminster. The header must have helped with something because it's boggling my mind! Lol

That's brutal. I was doing 135-140 on highway 2 from Calgary to red deer and I was getting 41-43 mpg.

Sylver01

I think your dic is screwed up man. I've never seen higher than 32 mpg or lower than 7.0L/100 km's in my car

I do have 60's on my car so I can definitely see it being wrong lol.

But at the same time I always try to draft behind a big truck. And I was doing that today

Sylver01

Ya I'd rather spend extra in gas than possibly getting a rock from the truck in my grill or windshield

outtamymind

i hate being behind big trucks, all they do is pepper your car with rocks :S

I've read about drafting. Apparently it increases the big rigs mileage too due to a high pressure zone in between the vehicles. Physics is weird. Gotta get pretty close though haha.

i remember there was a time i use to give a crap about when something flew off a big truck.... now who cares let it hit me... hahahha it cant get any worse....

Sylver01

Lol oh mark!

On a side note 5th gear has decided that it does not want to stay engaged. Keeps popping out with any little load from the engine. Any ideas what it could be? I'm thinking synchros.

And every other gear works just fine

before it gets bad you might want to see if the shifter cables are slightly out...

*sickday*

Sylver01

Me holding the shifter in 5th with a little bit of force doesn't hold it in

soundjunky

iTrader: (4)

if the cable is misadjusted, holding the shifter shouldn't help...
since I am unaware of any adjustments on the transmission, I'd first look at the shifter cable (the easy solution) after which I'd look into if it's more terminal than that...

Sylver01

I got a B&M shifter on it but it's been on there since 2008

jrmotosports 88

jon you have use for a g85? hahahhaha
i bet we can work out a agreement lol
