What did you do to your car today?

[DJKOR]

Went down to the local bolt shop and they had them on front counter. $7.95 a set. My question is, what happens when you want to take your plates off?

Hopefully you chose one with the ability to be removed with a special tool. Otherwise, if you got a one way screw (ie. one with a head that sheers off)... they are built not to be removed. That said, I have some nifty tools that can attack some of them.

Generally you drill them out

The guy I bought the yellow KE55 parts car off had his plates rivetted on because someone kept nicking them and doing drive-offs at the local servo

Finally got off my **** and wired in my wideband sensor. Idle isn't a good a good spot in the rev range to check if it is accurate, but at least it seemed reasonable, and more importantly it worked.

I was down there buying something else, I just noticed them on the counter.

Yeah dude , it was so tight that was even looking to not work , lets just say i used many words that would not be visible to other forum users

It would seem a lot of 'mechanics' think that the filter is structural and do it up to a million Nm; same with sump plugs...

[Rusty Bucket]

I still dont get it, you sat on your car? Are you Kiwi by any chance. An old mate of mine used to always say "On my car bro" instead of "In my car bro". As in, how did you get here Belly?

[cruzer]

nah i hurt my back so i sat down on her for a bit working in confined spaces sucks bigtime

[DJKOR]

Dropped her off at the doctors earlier this afternoon for her 75,000km routine check-up. Just picked it up then. Feels so fresh again. Slightly feeling funny after letting someone else check out her covered parts.
