Due to may lack of knowledge or ignorance, I usually run out to see if my car has the same problem as someone elses, or compare what I don't have (supercharger). An example would be how Zack switched his battery to the driver side for his setup. I stand over looking, scratch my head, say "WOW", then go back in the house. LOL... pretty bad!

OK - back in front of the computer after checking on the car and putting the OBDII extender cable away. What was the question?

No garage or Marauder for me :depress:, but I try to help out with excerpts from the factory manual in the form of attachments as much as I can :)

I mention my knowledge and experience and that usually helps. If there is something I cannot answer, looking at the car usually won't help.

When ever I offer help to the "FAMILY" It seems that I get a vacaton and a couple of months of miserable user hack. I spend the time looking at the pictures saved in Zack's memory. :lol:

I don't do it often enough. Right now, My MM is 60 miles away, covered in an old barn beside a '69 Challenger, a '67 Nova and a Mitsubishi GSR EVO I. (before you diss the rice, there were only a few of those made!)

It's not "RICE" if it can MOVE!
I respect EVOs, Subies & Supras...
I HATE fart piped Hondas!
Sorry for the Thread HiJack....I've been known to crawl under the Marauder to measure exhaust pipe diameters, when the question has arisen.
