I haven't done a beloved C4 update in ages, so what better day than today? Come read about this rare and fascinating beast on jayzayeighty.kinja.com, an account linked to Oppositelock: a subblog of the quaint Jalopnik division of Gawker Media! Hail wondrous and benevolent Kinja, our blasphemous deity. (If you exclaimed what? at any of the above statements, you are correct.)

Nick Denton, a person and mortal incarnation of Kinja. All praise be one to him.

Sorry for the buildup and excessively #instagram photo (quality is terrible if you don't hit expand, by the way), because there's not really much to say. It's mostly about work I am not doing myself. A week ago, I had all but clicked the order cart button on Summit Racing Parts when my dad called me to say that his mechanic had some sort of access to AC Delco parts. So I got all of the parts numbers for some other things and gave them to the mechanic, and he'll probably have them by next week. I'll be commuting on my bike, which is a long distance with all of the stuff I carry but I don't mind. I got some Royal Purple limited slip oil for my diff and drove to a suburb to get a pump that would work on the diff because it's making big-blower supercharger noises at the moment, and I figured it would make sense to have them bleed the brakes and flush the PS while it's there on the lift because I plan to take the car to an autocross or track day next year and both fluids are filthy; however, for some reason, they don't bleed the brakes.

A mullet?

I don't know why but I'll have to buy a new jack and stands that fit a low car and do that. Shouldn't be difficult. I believe the MAF is acting up because one morning a couple of months ago, the car was running rough and felt as though it had no power, CEL came on. When I went to start it the next time there was no problem. Yesterday, the idle was fluctuating between 400 RPM and 1000 and it didn't feel strong. Today, no problem. Until it becomes a persistent problem I don't think I'll have to replace it. I did check spark plug wires, oil level, oil cleanliness, and the distibutor and nothing was wrong but while I was there I saw how bad the brake fluid and PS fluid were. I also need to special order some wipers that won't mess up the edge of my hood when they go under.
