I gave it a half-ass bath this morning before work. Just waiting until it dies. lol
So, yesterday I had my car cut off on me and after that, I had a rough idle, but at speed the car was fine. Today, she started right up, drove like a champ and out of nowhere, my CEL came on. Pulled my codes, P0171 and P0174, System Too Lean Bank 1, System Too Lean Bank 2. Asked a 20-yr Mistu tech (who drives the absolutely most-quietest 4-cyl 8G I've ever heard) who I'm in this training class with about it, he said "sounds like a vacuum leak." Go under my hood, and I see this:

Intake resonator fell the fuck off!

It will not go back on and stay on. I'm gonna duct tape it for now, but it looks like a CAI shall be purchased with tax money!
It's a sign! CAI time! LOL

^What exhaust you get? I still need to find a muffler for the G, already have the glasspack.
Few hours ago I became a owner of an 8 gen galant. After working at a Mitsubishi dealership as a lube tech I notice these cars are bullet proof and pretty easy to work on.the previous owner was a mitsu tech and he kept her in good shape. Only thing I gotta do is replace the driver side lower control arm and a good cleaning. I have alot of plans with my new mitsu and plan on not beating on it, not to hard ;)http://img.tapatalk.com/48dd4fd3-c3bd-463a.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/48dd4fd3-c3c5-a504.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/48dd4fd3-c3cd-d7fd.jpg
With 168k, timing belt water pump tranny flush new battery radiator I couldn't say no for 2100
I actually already have one pair of mini's in my car and the other will go to the other G. Leave as is for now. I would need more cash for FXR, bulbs and ballasts. I had H1's kits already.Quote:

Took it threw a car wash to rinse the pollen off. went to the mitsu. dealership got my water pump, and timing/ drive belts changed out. got home and put my rims back on. boy my old belts were worn out.
I know this wasn't on my G, but still an accomplishment! Had a messed up hood latch/cable, finally got the hood open without breaking anything important.

Had to remove the intakes/airbox on each side to remove the headlights. Then I was able to swap the old Halo bulb for a new LED "bulb". Loving the new look!

i was able to sit down and do some research on the 3g eclipse im working on, found out she has 7 cel, after figureing out most of them two of them are cam and crank signal, then i found out i need to replace the reluctor for the cam sensor to an 03..
looks like data logging is on hold till next weekend.
made a test pipe and a down facing pipe for a short exhaust all v bands. still no clutch install but my 1600cc's will be here next week then the e85 tune starts.
