the meaning of life was told to you before you were born , an angel wispered it in your ear, and then he put his finger over your mouth and pushed you into the light, and thats how you got that finger size bump above your upper lip.

first off why would you ever want a VG? second if you plan on doing a motor swap please find a better car to do it to. thats the only advice. the swap is possible, but i wouldnt recommend it... the price of the mod is not worth the return.

Why do mushrooms grow in the middle of cow patties? And on that note, why are they called patties?

http://www.shroomery.org/ that should answer anything you need to know. Most of the bacteria and moisture nexessary for the fungis to grow stays in the middle cause the outside forms a crust and among bugs and flys on the patty, the bacteria gets affected also. so thus the only untainted bacteria grows in the middle. Its called a patty cause it hits the ground and cause its hot and moist it settles into a round flat object due to the condensation, temp and gravity.

believe it or not but when dogs sleep they dream about running to catch there owners, but they can never catch them. They sometimes imagine food that they cant quite reach. I have the same issue.... i kick when im sleeping, cause im dreaming about losing my maxima all over again.... .

The Egg obviously came first, cause when a pigeon had sex with a turkey the chicken was created. the egg dropped and thus the process began. why did the chicken cross the road? cause it had the roosters #!$% in its @$$ lol.

Thanks, I just put the idle air control valve and the egr solenoid back on and it idles a little high, I probably moved the idle adjustment screw, no biggie, but the exhaust still starts pinging w/in a minute or so of running. I just checked the egr valve today and it is fine. I haven't checked the fuel pressure or regulator yet, and am about to check the mass air flow sensor.

Any ideas on this one?
I recently aquired a 91 Maxima for the tow bill to get it to my house. The former owner told me he drove it home from work, the car was running great. He went out the next morning to leave for work, and the car would not move in any gear. It is a automatic tranny btw. I got the car home and started checking. Tranny fluid is normal, no burnt smell. Linkage is working. I put the tranny in diagnostics as per the sticky and it says all is fine, (10 flashes all the same). I do notice a drop in rpm when I put it in neutral, but the rpm, or load if you will seems to go away when taken out of neutral.

I have not checked the filter yet, but was hoping to get some input from some of ya'll before I go any further. I just find it hard to believe a tranny would die that fast with no indication.

Thanks in advance for any input.

I would like the late model f-bodies alot more if they didnt stick half the engine in the area where the firewall should be.

I'm going to put "If you can't beat it, Ban it" stickers on the fenders of my maxima (Michael should get that one )
