It's not terribly bad. I have done a ton of them, and can generally get them done in ~2.5 hours. Book time is 6 hours or so.I suggest you get the premium FelPro set. The steel with rubber... the plastic intake gaskets are worthless. You absolutely MUST torque the lower intake manifold. The gaskets are delicate, and the torque is very light. If you get the FelPro gaskets they will have the torque listings on the instructions included. Also, carefully clean all the old gasket material from the plenum surface. Remove the plastic retainers on the lower manifold from this surface as well. The ends of the plenum have a propensity to crack if the surface contact is not perfectly smooth. I can't tell you how many times I have had a shadetree and even a professional's work come to me with odd screaming noises when it is cold, or misfires, or lean codes and found the plenum cracked. Be careful of the pushrods. You will have to remove them to pull the intake gasket. They are 2 different lengths. The intake pushrods are shorter. Put the longer exhaust pushrod in an intake spot and you will have a pretzel. I have a cardboard box I have punched holes in and place rags inside it (to absorb the oil from the pushrods). Just mark the box "front of engine" on the appropriate side and it will be simple and mindless to reinstall the pushrods correctly/

Apparently he is a preacher. I just spoke to my mother. Most of the tendons and muscles in her neck were destroyed. The doctor sewed as much of them back as possible. According to the doctor she was about 1 or 2 shakes away from being decapitated. She is wearing a brace like she suffered whiplash, but she can walk, so that is good. From my understanding of the attack, it is actually impossible to believe. They are not sure if she will be able to hold her head up on her own because of the damage, but right now it is wait and see...

No, Minnesota. JK.

If it is not overheating, I would just keep an eye on it. A Tsat will cause it to overheat, not just get a little high in the overflow. As long as it is not boiling into the overflow (yes it will bubble and gurgle heavily if it were boiling) there is no real need for concern.

So my mother breeds Scottish Terriers. When she doesn't have a litter at the house she has 7 dogs. 2 breeding females (one toy and on pure white) and 5 males. Her white bitch just had a litter a few months ago (her first) and the older bitch was sold off after the first litter. Well last evening mom is out walking the white breeder and a pitbull came running up the street, and grabbed Lily (the Scotty female) by the neck and started shaking her. Mom started screaming and a neighbor came out of his house, saw what was happening, grabbed a bat and killed the Pit. The woman who owned the Pit came out and started screaming at them for killing her dog (while Lilly is laying there bleeding with her neck torn open) talking about how they were gonna pay. Mom said, "np bitch, you're gonna pay" Do you believe the fuckin balls on this cunt? Anyways, Lilly had some surgeries last night. The spine sustained damage, and she might have some nerve damage, but it appears she is not paralyzed. Miraculously, no major arteries were severed, but she is lain wide open. It took hundreds of stitches to sew her up. She is under 24 hour observation because they are unsure if she is going to make it. So far they have $3k tied up in vet, surgery, and 24 hour observation costs.

No. Sounds like normal operation to me. The overflow is there to trap coolant as it expands due to heat, and as the engine expands (which shrinks the cooling system capacity). The radiator cap is desinged to vent the cooling system when it reaches a certain pressure (which builds because of this expansion and contraction). So the hose should generally always feel as hard as it did today (since the pressure is regulated by the cap). As long as the temperature is fine, I wouldn't sweat it. Obviously the cap is working as intended (hose is showing pressure, so it is holding, and the overflow is filling and draining, so it is relieving pressure and drawing coolant back in).

This new scanner takes fucking forever to update. I have been updating Ford for 3 hours now... and it has over 30 makes available. I think I am just going to update the usual vehicles I see in the shop.

I thought you just got the biggest baddest one Snap-On made? I do. But all aftermarket scanners have their weaknesses. This unit will fill in a lot of gaps for me, and it is very reasonable. The SnapOn unit Is soft on Korean cars (Hyundai, Kia, and Daewoo which also encompasses Suzuki and entry level GMs like the Aveo), and small line Asians like Subaru. The Euro is very good on VW/Audi and BMW, but it is weak elsewhere. It is also soft on many security systems. The new scanner is lightning fast on the Koreans and fills a lot of my security system gaps. The Euro package is vast, and from my understanding very stout. If you have a Bugatti, I have a factory level scanner now Thought you had a loaded Solus? Solus? No sir. I am several rungs up the ladder. I have a Verus. I have images with the new scanner and a comparison with the Verus. You guys will see the vast ability of options the Verus offers compared to the new Maxidas. The Maxidas and the Verus. This is everything the Maxidas comes with. This is the very base portion of the Verus, and the Euro adapters above the Verus. The Verus and the other adapters, cables, and wireless unit. The Verus is an exceptional tool, and there is a reason it costs 5 times as much as the Maxidas. And the Base Verus with the Euro adapters...

Trying to link just the image, not the site. The sites have annoying pop ups. I wish I had known this before. I'll address this in future links. Glad we got that taken care of. *in serious voice* I hate that. I try to share good links. The fact that my links are not working sucks... Seriously. I love women, and sharing with my homies is good. Too bad I shared a ton of worthless links

We need an NSFW thread. I have a TON of pics that are NSFW. I love self shooters and amateurs. I have a ton of celeb stuff too.
