    Looking for advice - and lots of it

    Thanks tealtiger93. What should I do about my radiator? What about an intercooler? I'm not too familiar with those things. I would like a nice radiator but I don't want to pay more than $140. (better than stock) Any suggestions?

    Air freshener oil ate my dash paint

    It was the "Air Wick Mobile". I looked at the package after I made this post and I realized that its not meant for a car. There are no warnings about the fragrance that say anything other than it might irritate your skin/eyes though. Thanks Rjstaaf

    Looking for advice - and lots of it

    I received an 88 lx 2.3l as a gift in February. Just the standard car, not convertible or anything - only has 45k original miles. It had some major issues running but it turned out to just be the FPR. After I replaced that it ran pretty well. Its not as smooth as other cars I've driven but I'm...

    Thermostat Gasket Woes

    I have an 88lx (na). Lately its started overheating and everyone has suggested that I change the thermostat. Also they all stressed it was extremely easy. As far as changing the thermostat goes that was easy. The problem arises when I put it all back together and start the car. I end up with...
