I haven't picked out a replacement yet, but I think I may need a new truck tire.

After my experience filling the tank of the Ural with a jerry can, I snagged a pair of folding silicone funnels from Amazon for nine bucks.

Did that resolve the AC issue?

Sure did. :tup:I wished I would of checked that when it stopped working at the end of last summer. It's been in the mid 90's the past few weeks with a heat index in the triple digits and the window units were not keeping the house cool enough so figured I check it one more time. When I relised the fan on the outside unit wasn't kicking on the first thing came to mind with the compactor. When I opened it up I saw it was all swollen. Looked up the size on Amazon and ordered one for $14.42. The Ac supply house wanted $45-$55 for the same Capacitor.

A few more cans of Electrical Parts/Contact Cleaner to hold me over until I can save up enough $$ for an "Air/Oil Separator" for my XT... just want to say thank you EPA for sending all that crap back to my engine, MAP sensor, and intake valves (hard for most GDI/DIT engines to clean intake valves when no gas is sprayed near them)... but we do get to see more bears and foxes with the EPA around :lol:

:ohno:

I don't think they took into account the nasty chemicals the Dealerships and I have to use every 10 to 15k miles just to clean up those dirty engine parts :hehe:

Oh well... my car had a really nice smoke show the other day, I had to of killed several thousand mosquitoes all while angering a few police and fire marshals as I passed by with black/carbon filled smoke billowing out the dual exhaust :lmao: it was like a "Smoke Screen" from a spy movie, thick smoke taking up 4+ lanes width of traffic and going for miles behind the car in question.

Good news is the XT is back to getting 26 to 30+ mpg (just shy of 35 mpg is my record), starting and idling properly, hits 22 pounds of boost like it should (mods, mods, and more mods!), with no hesitations or bucking while driving :tup:

Bad news is the next scheduled cleaning is already in 10,000* miles and counting :wtf:

* Tried to extend that interval this time round, but the car started acting out shortly after that 10k miles hit :hehe:

That's your government helping you. Red or blue don't mean shit. They're all dumb asses.

Ordered the last fork brace in stock from Amazon for the Hawk. I've been wanting one for a while but seem to be out of stock every time I looked. Not this time. :yay:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
