    Seafoam is teh *****!

    It looks like 2000 heads have the PCV valve on the passenger side as well. I would have a helper in the car holding the idle to about 1000 rpm. You don't want to rev it too high. Lastly a lot of people suggest that you change your oil with 500 miles of using any kind of intake cleaner as a...

    Seafoam is teh *****!

    On an '02 the PCV valve is on the passenger side, the driver side is where fresh air enters from the air tube coming from the airbox. That is why the SeaFoam wound up in your airbox instead of the motor. Make sure you put the SeaFoam in SLOWLY. You shouldn't need any more than 1/3 ro 1/2...

    Seafoam is teh *****!

    What year is the car? Sounds like a later model that has the PCV valve on the passenger side cam cover. Early models have the PCV valve on the drivers side and the fresh air vent on the passenger side, on later models it is reversed. Follow the line that you pulled, where does it lead? On my...

    Seafoam is teh *****!

    Just my opinion but, if you don't know where the PCV valve is than you probably shouldn't be trying this. I would hate to see a post the next day asking why your motor won't start. Really the method you are trying is used when you are having problems. If you just want to clean the motor you...

    Seafoam is teh *****!

    Unless you know what you are doing I would STOP experimenting. You run a huge risk of hydro-locking the motor if you manage to get enough fluid into the combustion chamber. Links have already been posted where you can find out how to do this. Here are the instructions from SeaFoam...

    Tire Size

    I have yet to see a manufacturer that recommends anything larger than a 255 for an 17x8 inch rim. The manufacturer's put charts with the recommended sizes on their websites, you can also go to www.tirerack.com and check them out.

    microfiber ?

    Here is the deal with buying microfiber from WalMart and Auto Parts stores. Microfiber is mostly made in Asia. The quality control generally sucks so you have to rely on the vendor to do their own quality control. The problem is places like WalMart and the auto parts stores generally buy from...

    New believer in Meg's NXT

    Pretty good I would say for a 3rd rate wax. Ohh and by the way, there is absolutely NO WAX in NXT Tech Wax, it is a pure polymer sealant.

    Fuel Filter Location

    I have had good luck just letting the car sit overnight and changing the filter the following morning. Fuel pressure can take quite some time to bleed off. I can't say it will work for everyone but, it has worked for me.

    Fuel Filter Location

    Here is a great article on changing the fuel filter. You will need a fuel line disconnect tool to remove the filter from the lines. http://www.bullittarchive.com/html/modules/articles/article.php?id=73

    Undercoating for road noise?

    I wouldn't do that, you will more than likely be very dissapointed with the results. If you want noise reduction go with Dynamat or one of the similar brands. It will do a much better job of dampening road noise. There are several brands out there, I just happen to prefer Dynamat...

    New believer in Meg's NXT

    Why typically causes streaks with most products is not leaving it sit long enough before you wipe it off. I have found this to be true with NXT. I generally let it sit for about 20 minutes before wiping it off. It may even take longer if it is humid where you are.

    Optima battery swap

    They all have standard posts on top I believe, a few of them have the side posts as well. The 34 just has the traditional top posts.

    Air in brake lines

    I would try bleeding the master cylinder first. The mighty vac isn't gonna work any better than the buddy system. Did the master cylinder go dry at any point when you were bleeding or when you were installing the lines?

    what type of scratch remover you use?

    If you can feel the scratch with your fingernail than I wouldn't attempt to remove it as you will take too much of the clear with it. If you can't feel it with your fingernail than you certainly can remove it. You can try Meguiars Scratch X from your local auto parts store, beyond that you...
