OKAY FINE I'LL COME THIS TIME.

Could be my last full weekend at work for a while with a second shift leader quitting in a month. Time to get the resume' in order..

Sucks about the old car, but the new one looks like a great upgrade!

Climate control is great... You just leave it on a number and don't even have to think about it for months.... You'll realize this once you get into another vehicle with knobs and you get warm when not expecting it, or you get ...

If it's during open and closed loop, it's probably something that's not caused by the PCM.

Tried a different IAC valve?

Otherwise, fuel pump, filter, injectors, o rings, all could be causing issues.

Don't rule out power, I had a failing alternator and old battery in my BMW, it's amazing how many ...

Sticky or bum injector? Could be putting too much fuel in, and too much fuel could cause stumbling? When is your rough idle, only when warm, or all time?

What's your consumption like?

What do your plugs look like?

Noisy. Cars have cloth for a reason...

Just a guess, or do you have legit information on this?

At the yearly Back to the 50's show (12k cars from 64 or older) we came upon a mid engined L67 powered manure spreader.... :bluetwitch:

Looks like a W-Body chassis mounted in the rear with the steering locked, and the dash just dropped in upfront.

Where's the lowered and big wheel version?

I've used it some, Will it be as good as 3M in a long term use in sunlight? Probably not, but it's got a good texture, and sticks well.

Dude, those cars are crap.... hope you still have your receipt! We'll have to have a little "Get to know your E46" day when it warms up March or April. Maybe a photo shoot...

Looks very clean inside, that 6th cog and rear end ratio make me jelly!

Cars don't need names...

Silver always works on a black vehicle, gunmetal could look too close to black (but not black) and could just look off.

I met a good friend of mine as he was autocrossing a 2000ish 2 door GP... That thing, struggled mightily, I can't image trying to hussle a LeSabre through a decent course, those tires look to be SCREAMING in that head on photo. Definitely keep shocks in the rear in a good balance with the front.

Those wheels doe..

It's not atypical, but always a little funny, I walked in and made sure to get the pic before talking to anyone.

The Euro guys seemed truthfully interested!

Here's all the images I got that day.

This past October, I walked into a little car show and 5 people were looking at, and talking about a certain someone's car.

No one was looking at the ORANGE MCLAREN SUPERCAR.

Randy must have paid them?

Play with tire pressure. My car has nothing for comfort, but tire pressures make a huge difference.

If it's still bad, consider a softer spring, but good dampers (struts in your case) are what makes the body feel "controlled".

If the work allows it, I'll always take the wheels i've removed, and put one of them under the rocker below the B pillar as a safety measure. If a jack/stand slips then it'll still be on one axle, and the wheel in the middle of the car.

Then you're not tripping over wheels either!

I have often said it before, and I will say it again, today, and forever. Here in New Mexico, the dryrot is so bad, it will claim a set of tires within 5 years.

My case is no exception.

5 years ago, I bought these tires (el cheapos), and put them on the Park Avenue:
