<div>Im still awake, other than worrying about the occasional popping out of 4th<br>
gear the Square is ready to go<br>
In deep hibernation now, time to do a mid winter startup but with temps SO<br>
cold, that wont happen with the 20w50 in it.<br>
Looks like an old school colder February is up for the Northeast, and<br>
well... starts with the deep south this weekend, keep those<br>
Normally protected cars out of any salt that may come out down there.<br>

Subject: [T3] Invasion prep<br>
<br>
Hi all.<br>
<br>
The list has been pretty quiet lately. Is this thing on? ;-)<br>
<br>
Here's where I'm at with prep.<br>
<br>
I dropped my engine yesterday to deal with an oil leak up by the oil pump<br>
and do some general checking things out.<br>
<br>
One thing about the CSP exhaust is that the process of dumping the engine is<br>
more of a process. First I remove the bumper, then the support brackets for<br>
the muffler which tie into the bumper brackets. Then disconnect the heat<br>
shield above the muffler and finally the muffler itself can come down.<br>
After that it's pretty much the same as stock. Discovered a tear in the<br>
dipstick tube. Air bellows still good.<br>
<br>
The list going forward:<br>
<br>
* Adjust the rear ride height as it's just a little low as is. I've already<br>
bumped the extended sump on one of those concrete parking logs. That's no<br>
bueno.<br>
<br>
* Find and fix a rattle in the left door.<br>
<br>
* Rig up a circuit for USB power for phone and tablet charging.<br>
<br>
* Rig up a bluetooth speaker to sit in on the rear seat. Or hang from the<br>
front seat-back. Tablet to supply tunes over bluetooth. Rig something to<br>
keep the speaker charged while driving.<br>
<br>
* Figure out why my horn ckt drains the battery overnight.<br>
<br>
Probably other stuff I can't think of right now.<br>
<br>
Everybody else ready to go mobile?<br>
<br>
Max<br>
