Time for new plugs for me - looks like NGK IX Iridium are now the plugs for us.
Anyone done one?
I'm FINALLY getting my undercarriage oiled :rolleyes:, although not QUITE in the typical manner. Is it a straight drop, or do we need to pull the axle, or...??? I know the...
Much as I LOVE my in-dash 6 cd-changer, I have been informed... by those whose desktops do NOT have dual CD/DVD/Blu-Ray burners :rolleyes:... that the CD, is 'dead technology.'

Changed the *&^%^&%$^@%#! PVC valve, after 109,000 miles. Like every OTHER MOPAR engine, the most expendable, frequently changed item, is in the MOST inaccessible place under the hood. :mad: Ask...
There was a factory option 125 amp alternator for early 318 Magnums. I put one in my '92 Ramcharger (since I'd put a big stereo and bigger CB in it), which was the first year for the Magnum, so I...
I'm just glad it all works!!!
AND new alternator. Got $55 back on the core exchange, though.
XK's definitely getting MORE expensive, being out of warranty, as it is. :rolleyes:
Just got it reassembled a few minutes ago - no battery light, so at least the external regulator in the ECU...
Got the alternator out today. The belt was cracked, so it was time for it to go too. ANNNNNND... the tensioner has seen better days (you oughta see what the years of winter salt spray have done to...
Commander got a dead one. :(
Thought the battery was old (it was - right at 5 years), so I replaced that yesterday. Truck ran great for about 5 minutes... 'til the battery light came on AGAIN. ...
I'm thinking I better dig mine OUT. At 95k miles now, I put it in park, apply emergency brake, turn the ignition off, pull the key out, BUT... if I keep my foot on the brake, the engine KEEPS...
I did, which I THOUGHT would offset any mileage gain... but there you have it!
GUACAMOLE - what happened to my gas mileage?!?! It got BETTER!!! :eek::eek::eek:
Gassed up yesterday (had "30 miles to empty" showing) - 389 miles since my last fillup - and my gas mileage has...
Mine's out of warranty, but NOT out of payments yet :rolleyes:, so "wheeling" (overtravel, crunching tires into bodywork, etc.) will be limited to... 'snowy streets,' for the time being.
If I...
Don't oversoak 'em obviously, and they WILL disintegrate with vigorous rubbing. Wear eye protection, and be prepared to vacuum, if you can't sweep them out of your seats to satisfaction, but I was...
FYI - they DID! :cool:
Wellll... here's my SECOND attempt to write this up. I wrote it up over two weeks ago, was ALMOST finished, and Firefox pulled a Microsuck on me, and crashed. :mad: I...
I think some super-duty Mr. Clean Magic Erasers will do the trick... I hope...
I'm a bit tired, a bit full (ribeye), and a bit full of Shock Top (beer), so I'll post a teaser here...
Guess what came home from the shop today?
...
Will do. Anyone have any cleaning tips for that not-quite-cloth-not-quite-synthetic headliner of ours? :rolleyes:
Was thinking about that. I'll work on it here in the days to come.
Well, since I'm finally doing something TO it (aside from communication gear installs and a CAI), I figure it's time to START a garage!
As an aside, she just turned quintuple 8's on Tuesday.
...
Me WANTY!!!
How much are they, and what's the shipping on them (and can you make a set for my RC next)?
Gotta get a picture of it tomorrow with 5 tires IN it! :p
Gotten LOTS done with the the Ramcharger this year - the Jeep? NOT so much... :(
