    Don't we all?
    I'm by no means a tournament level fisherman, but could probably be a world champion contender when it comes to untangling backlashes.

    I don't know, maybe 20 lb? I haven't been fishing in a few years, and that line is at least 10 years old.

    I got a baitcaster reel ages ago. I'm not sure I ever cast it properly, certainly not as far as my spincast, despite being mounted to a much longer pole.

    Unloaded the trunk from last road trip. Vacuumed it out, and since I was already hot n sweaty,, I detailed the trunk. Completely empty, It I is a massive thing of beauty!

    To get my shop vac, I had to back out the SB, and I started wondering what the heck was in this huge box that was safely stacked on top, nestled deep so no teenager could get to it. It has three "fragile" stickers. I dug it out and found a 9.8 out of 10 (could be new) trunk pack w doors that I didn't know was there!

    Knowing it couldn't be true, I quickly double checked both MMs trunks as I figured I may have removed one for some reason a year or two ago, but they too had thier own new trunk packs installed!

    So I installed the new trunk pack into the detailed trunk of the Sport! It was so pretty (too pretty actually), I then cut a perfectly sized (2.5 by 3ft or so) piece of fresh cardboard to cover and protect the new carpeted doors and trunk floor.

    Basically, I regained 8 cubic feet of garage space, found a new trunk pack, and a cut a perfect fittied piece of cardboard.

    I was/am so happy: like an 8 year old boy on Christmas morning!

    PS the cardboard already saved they day as later I helped mom carry a bunch of sharp cornered, sharp edged, art frames accross town, and I know they (or the metal hangers on back) would have snagged the carpet door felt on its first day/maiden voyage!

    I’ve done this many times. Normally a year after retuning, and getting ready to hit the road again.. Not kidding either.

    It's funny you mention this, because I have an extra wheel and some wheel covers for my wagon still sitting in my trunk from a Panther meet a few days ago. I should take care of that, but I'm stuck under a cat right now.

    I think the fuel pump is shot. I parked it in February because it was running crappy. Idles okay but then wants to die if you goose the gas in park or drive.

    Could be. Datalog the FPDC. IIRC 49% equals maxed out. I’d inspect the MAF internals for dust or spider webs also at this point as well.
