Myco came by today, and I fixed him up with a few parts for his Mark, and to cut the wire to get rid of the Check Air Ride message. That paint job is looking good.

GMAN, did you let him leave there with those rims on backwards? :p Both cars look good and yes, the paint does look good now that I see it out in the daylight.

Yes, :p unfortunately he has directional tires, and the tires are mounted on the wrong wheels. I told him he needs to go back to a tire shop, so it may be a bit. He still has to remove the dash and and reconnect the yellow vac line to get the AC to blow correctly.

Been there done that!! Tell him to zip tie the hose to the wire bundle next to it, to keep it from coming off again.

being an owner of both gen's i dont understand why you gen 1 people think gen 1's have far superior looks over a gen 2. i think gen 1's look 25 years old!

Opinions and ass holes. I like the Gen 1 just fine but like the gen two more. The Gen1 has a more agressive look on the nose but the tail and nose make the car look dated. It looks like a 20 year old car. The Second Gens look like they were made this century and people mistake my beater for a new car all the time.

Right now I'm preparing to take the dash out. What exactly am I looking at here? Don't see the yellow vacuum tube.

Also, afterward going to run back out to Gman's for that rim sometime this week and have the tires re-mounted. Before I do that though I am going by autozone and finding the bad rim. I know it's one on the front but not sure if it's the left or right.

Also, after changing the plugs and swapping out the COP's w/ 2 extra I have ( from a junk yard car ) I still have a stumble so I'm looking for new O2 sensors. Going to need to call max about that.

ho-hum

edit: ohh and also figured out my ballast is bad and need to get a glitch (sp?).

cannot believe how easy air tools make this! Anyway,

1.One bolt on each side at bottom near door.
2. 2 bolts in L bracket at driver's right knee.
3. two bolts deep in front of shifter.
4. 6 bolts holding steering column up.
5. 6 bolts across top of dash

Do I need to pull anything else from the dash?
