No more rough idle. | did that on the green ti today, I used duct tape and a zip-tie fixed an issue where the hood wouldn't close straight making the latch get stuck, somehow one of the brackets that hold the top of the hood struts was bent and hitting the fender tracked the coolant leak to the back of the engine where I can't see it, good thing I know what failure-prone part is back there | | | 10-10-2013, 05:33 AM | #3117 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Los Angeles, CA Posts: 1,464 | Claybar and exterior wax; wheel wax on the wheels.
