    Swapped the blower resistor (transistor) module out. Few dropped screws, tools and F-Bombs and part contortion to get it done.

    Apparently my air suspension pump is in-op. The car rides and drives fine but I don't hear pump run when I start the car.

    I wish I knew what I was doing. On one hand I'd like to keep the car forever, on the other hand, selling it would help get me into something else. I put a single tank of gas through it about every three years. I had 70k miles on it in '09. Now it's up to almost 74k miles. Some would call that crazy...myself included.

    Of course, once it's gone, it's gone for good. If I sold it today, I bet it would end up in a salvage yard within five years. That's probably my only reason for hanging onto it.

    I'm not sure if I own the car or it owns me.

    My 2004 just had the engine overhauled but when I driving the car home I noticed the alarm light next to my vent blinking twice pausing and then blinking twice again. Also while the horn does beep with the panic button the alarm does not go off when I open the door from the inside with the alarm supposedly activated. Not quite sure what to do as I need my car alarm.

    Not sure what's going on, but you could pull the negative off the battery for a few minutes and see if it resets.

    Drove it 700 miles round trip to Ocean City, Maryland for the Endless Summer Crusin' Weekend. First long trip since the Eaton Swap. Car ran and drove beautifully.

    I used Welman Leather cleaner & conditioner on the front and rear seats. I was quite pleased with the results.

    Finally getting it out and working on it. Fuel pump unresponsive, so had it towed to a local shop because I don't want to deal with 16 gallons of 93 octane.

    Weather has been nice in Upstate NY this month, so I took it to work this week to show some coworkers My Build. Have to tuck it away soon.

    I relocated my oil gauge to the A pillar gauge pod. Mine's been waiting patiently for the Eaton swap big parts to begin installation. Beforehand I installed the heat exchanger (Frozen Boost) and boost/AFR gauges on the pillar. Those have a tendency to consume time if they're installed with a high degree of care and detail. I began my install with the small parts first to avoid that "hardware store at 7:50pm" appearance we've ALL seen.
    With the proper tune it's probably not necessary to have AFR in my constant line of sight. The oil (with real gauge) is crucial and will be seen more easily if anything goes wrong with the relocated filter and hoses.

    With that completion I have my critical sweeping gauges in my line of sight and voltage/AFR in the console.

    As far as details, in my line of work occasionally I'll score ENTIRE vehicle wiring harnesses so any and all wires I extend will use matching colors/gauge and all connections are solder/heat shrink with the entire length of the new harness wrapped in Tesa tape.

    Look at it..... remove anything attached to the intake, then remove the intake.....
