One of my buddies asked me if I want to play golf on Sunday.  I figured what the heck, I haven't played in over two years so I might as well play.  We had a tee time at 2:00pm and by that time the wind was blowing a constant 30mph.  Not exactly good golf weather.  LOL

So I met my friend and his girlfriend at the golf course (no girl for me  :sad: ) and off we went.  I was a pretty busy day so we were being held up my the group in front, and had a very impaitent group behind us.  On about the 6th hole, the two guys behind us decided they would go ahead and hit while we were still within their range.  One ball ended up missing me by about 2' and the other missed my friends head by less then a foot.   :angry: Now we thought this was uncalled for, and waited to have a talk with them at the next tee box.  Only thing is, the guys stayed as far away from us as possible.  It when on like this for about 2 holes and we had a chance to let them play through.  We motioned them to come ahead, but the guys just got back in their cart and quit.  LOL

Wasn't exactly a relaxing day.

My version is relaxing.  I have never played golf on a course on my life, but I take my clubs and a bunch of junk balls out behind my house and just start whacking them.  Boy is it fun to just let loose and watch the ball fly, if the ball splits into two pieces that even adds to it.  Sure, recovery rate is about 50%, but I have never bought a single ball.

Y'all should should have fired a few back!  LOL

 

That crossed our minds, trust me.  LOL  If it hadn't been for the female of the group telling us not too, it probably would have happened.

      Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles.

      Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.

      LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL

      OBD not ready?

      By davester · Posted

      Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
