I wonder how many of those 2.0 engines are being recalled due to bearing issues. I thought the Prince engine was the one with issues.

I hope my two N18s makes it to 100K each.

Geez....

 

Yikes. Crankshaft bearing recall is $$$$$$

 

Today....I loaned my car to my BF cause he had a doctors appointment. I had to take public transport like a peasant. I cried.

 

^^^ Now there's a sad story !!

 

One of ours has!

 

I know this probably belongs over on the Gun Thread, but I drove the R53 over to the corner gun shop this afternoon to follow up on my quest to purchase a Smith and Wesson 9mm Shield. This being my fourth or fifth trip, over the course of the past month, and waiting to get some kinda word from the S&W rep, I got some Great News! I'm finally gett'n my 9mm Shield. I qualify for a special LE program that S&W has going which allows for a fairly substantial discount. That said, and as scarce as these are to find here in California, my guy had finally made contact with the rep, found out that he was getting four general public safety and five LE only handguns. They should arrive Friday, we'll do the paperwork, and Ill take possession on the 22nd. And now, all is good... Finally.

Wooooooo Hooooooooooooo!!!!!

For grins, I bought a Ruger 10/22 Carbine to boot! What a great day. :beer

 

I "Like" that

 

I LIKE THAT. I really didn't have to type this with one finger. I could have just hit the 'like' button...BUT I DON'T HAVE ONE ANYMORE. My fingers are going to get stronger...

 

Ah lack at too

 

Damn I wanted to like Dave O's like but can't...... :crazy:

 

I haven't done crap to my MINI since Nov. No gauge install, no CD install, no detailing, no nothing. The events of 2015/2016 have caught up with me. SOMEBODY...please kick me in the posterior and tell me to get to work. The Dragon is coming...

 

The reason it's raining in Vancouver today is because I washed and waxed my MINI the other day. Do you know how hard it is to buff off wax when it's actually too cold outside? My arms still hurt.

Nice, take your comments on the Carbine over to the Gun Thread. More details are needed, how does it group?

 

Back at ya!

 

wash and wax while too cold? I think it would be very hard around here right now. My Mini is chilling under it's car cover in the garage, occasionally sipping current from the trickle charger, all while it is -2F outside. Too cold to work on it even in the garage, so all projects are on hold until March.

 

You've got less than 100 days!

And I still have to get your I/C diverter done... It will be in the back of the Porker and we can change it out there. [emoji12]

 

I added a really nice adjustable upper engine stabilizer to my 70 today.

 

Consider your backside punted. Just because it's below freezing is no reason not to work on your car.
