Hey 203CT, what did you use to get that grime off of the metal without messing up the paint??? It came out really clean!
Do you mean when I debadged the trunk? If so I used WD-40

Goo gone works great too, then a little lacquer thinner to smooth it out. Make sure you put some wax on that spot. Thinner is hard on old paint.

This guy came on today. I didn't have time to pull the codes but now my idle is a Lil funny. Randomly fluctuating. Here's what happen. I was at a red light and I had to get over because I had to make a turn onto a street that was coming up. So when the light turn green I punched it to get ahead of the car next to me so I wouldn't miss the turn. Well it snowed today so it was slippery. I held the gas all the way to 6500rpms and when I shifted into 2nd the wheels spun but I held it at 7000 rpms so the car just spun until I gain traction. I didn't mean to do this but I did. Shortly after the CEL came on. Car still drives normal when in gear it still engages vtec. I wonder if my o2 sensor is bad since my car is burning oil.

jump that 2 pin connector and get the obd-1 version of the code to be sure it isn't something major

I just got to work. But the car dives fine, no lost of power. But my car idles at 1500 for a while then drops to a grand. After work I'm going to pull the codes and see what is. I'm hoping it nothing major but everything happens for a reason so who knows this could be a good thing lol.

Clear the code. Let the car idle to operating temp. If it doesn't come back on then you're good

Yea I cleared it and it didn't come on so I guess I'm good. But my idle still is funny. I think I might have a small vac leak.

Maybe you're PCV vlave is starting to gunk up. My coupe will sometimes do the weird idle thing every now and again. I'm just too lazy to change it

But in other news I have really been managing my money which I am proud of "Yah" I have manage to save $300 a week and I still don't even have a second job. So I should have some nice goodie by the time spring rolls around which is the same time ill be lowing the car. WS2 has been added to the list if things to purchase when spring rolls around. I hate this fart can with a passion.
