Came across this matte black Esky on CL would love to wrap, dip, or paint mine matte black with 22" Esky rims and a slight drop

You think black is a ***** to keep clean, try flat black.

Well got the remote module and other wiring for my exhaust cutout all installed. No pictures, but I hard wired it all properly so there's nothing to see. Tested the remote function and it works from pretty far away. I'll post some pics and maybe a sound clip when I get the pipe welded in, on Monday hopefully.

Swapped out the oil pressure sensor! Pretty easy job after watching youtube. Now the wifey is within safety range pressure...
Horrible memories of that a year ago. Used a 18" breaker bar 1/2" ratchet, when it broke loose, smashed my finger in between it and the intake manifold.

Hard core. Yep. And I just realized I'll be replacing mine when I install my blower, I have the sending unit. Hopefully it will be easier with the intake manifold removed. Also just realized I dont have the socket I need.

I have drill bits. I'm ready.
Should have seen the look on my sons face when I pulled out the plumbing torch to heat it up. When I smashed it hurt so bad I kinda went into shock and my pain tolerance meter had to reset. I'm fully sleeved on both arms and I had NEVER felt sharp sudden pain like that before. Then I had to hurry up and put the new sensor in before I lost use of my hand. As soon as I got it replaced my shit ballooned up.

Ever since I repaired the valve on the Hoe that I broke, the system isn't pressuring again. Maybe I have an air bubble in it. I took it around the block to heat it up. I was pissed because it kept stalling, so I beat it up some. This thing actually Burns rubber!! And sooooo good too! Lol, some lady sitting in her car was actually yelling at me. I don't know what she said, but I saw her mouth moving as she was looking at me. Gonna try letting it run with no radiator cap, try to purge the system.

I swapped out my headlights/ corner lights back to my smoked ones, reinstalled my DDU lower grill and changed my emblem from color matched to black. Now if the city gets the potholes fixed I can reinstall my 26's and be out of Winter mode completely.
