I also learned, GoPro's can't pick up the "bang"... sounds like a snap. Need to figure out how to edit the video to get it right..

 

So I was able to get it in the garage and start doing some research and prep for the installation. During that I found these.. I’m never a fan of vacuum lines and a plug not being attached. I was doing some research and it looks like the switch and line are part of the turbo recirculating blow off system. Any idea why these would be open? Feels like it was done on purpose. This is always the challenge of working on a car someone else modified.



Ties back I to this switch


I found this - which is plugged.


Doing some more research, but if anyone knows off the top of their head.. lmk.

 

Also - 1st time pic... it is in the garage (and dirty from pollen)....



Ignore Humpty Dumpty in the background.. we are having a little lovers quarrel...


And it’s covered in dust from the fire (not sure I’ll ever get all that cleaned out..)...

 

So it appears you can only buy a tow hook cover in painted... not sure this is going to be fixed in time for MOTD...

 

Interesting - they are showing up when I look. Anyone else seeing this issue?

 

Good deal -

 

Lol - the pollen on that thing.

 

Thanks - I need to do some updates as I’ve been doing some work in between updating the website and working on my other projects.

 

Agreed - and they are very flexible. I would get the one that can run off 12v and buy a jump pack from Harbor Freight (that is what I did). That way you can use them wherever without being tied to a electrical outlet. The one I purchased can lift my 2013 F250 Diesel (with the lift extensions). It barely fits length wise under the MINI, but it works. It is heavier than the other versions... so if you don't need that lifting capacity, I'm not sure I would do it. I have no issue recommending them. I'm back out of town, but when I get back to ATL I can post some pics etc.

 

Just do it - you won’t regret it especially with as much time as you spend around cars. . And yes, I’ve been told I’m a bad influence before.
