P.S. I still volunteer my car for brake fluid flush. Yes, cause I am lazy, and b/c Ive never done it before.

You buy the brake fluid kit (like $5) and I'll be glad to show you.

I'll show you how to do a fuel filter replacement. Easy stuff, just supply the filter.

i can and have done the fuel filter, its easy. just figured maybe someone would want to see it and its easy enough to do pretty much anywhere.

no sealant for the intakes.

I vote for the temp sender replacement, is that where you add the guage for the temp?

It is where you replace the reader that sends the coolant temp to the stock coolant temp gauge in the cluster.

I just thought of a good seminar idea. How about a demo on how to properly address bumper sag??

Bumper sag is an EASY fix. we may be able to do it if we have jack stands or ramps.

Loks like I'm gonna be busy. I can already see a ton of people saying "can you check on this "thing" with my car?"

i'l do it myself if i had the time between now and then, i have the tools and knowledge, just no time to use either of them. plus a helping hand is always nice, and i'm alone on car projects around my house.

This is a BS fix
What a HACK JOB!!!!

Will anybody be able to bring supplies to optimize a TB or two? I would really like to get this done but I don't want to do it myself.
Posted By: Stazi Re: New SZ seminars - 05/17/05 04:35 PM
I wouldn't hotch the bolts either, and I never have had to. You just loosen the 4 bolts get someone to lift up hard on the bumper and hold it while you tighten in down and vio la. No more sag.

I wish we could do the same for Todd's man bobs - bit alas he will just have to keep wearing his "bro" instead.
