Additionally, I mixed it in a lower concentration formula than recommended, didn't leave it on long, rinsed thoroughly and carefully after a short soak, then compressed air and 303 to finish.

I have painted the center caps myself using plastic primer, rattle can enamel, and clear.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Folks-
Newbie Mawgie here, he of the recently purchased 2002 Carrera Coupe. Last week, I pulled the snowblower off my tractor, which directly led to the blizzard we are experiencing here in Upstate NY.
I have completed some mods, and got some snaps last weekend, in much happier weather times:
1- ugly factory turbo look 18" chrome (technically physical vapor deposition, not chrome) rims have been stripped and powdercoated, fresh
pzeros road force balanced;
2- I detailed the engine bay with Simple Green Pro HD (purple), easy and worked wonders;
3- installed knock off sport pedals, also easy and added a perceived 23hp at the butt;
4- swapped the pumpkins, easy breezy with tires off and car up on jackstands;
5- did not install the gauge bezel kit, I might be keeping it black. Not sure yet.
Pics time!
Regards-Mawgie
Thanks, Country 911. I have painted the center caps myself using plastic primer, rattle can enamel, and clear. They are obviously darker than the rims, but look okay to me. For now they are staying. I am looking forward to getting them spinning.................
Hey Country911, I just carefully read your Pcar description in your signature. Is it true that you toss a hunk of raw meat into the garage every morning for your Carrera to gnaw on? Me likey.
Mawgie -- Yep, that's what I like, a guy who measures HP at the butt. We don't need no stinkin' dyno!! And I'll bet it drives faster after a wash and a wax too. I know that mine does.
The wheels look nice. You're making progress. OK, you've redeemed yourself. Welcome to the insanity.

Simple Green will etch and oxidize aluminum. Bad for anything aluminum - like engine blocks and cylinders/heads. I'd keep the Simple Green away from the pcar.
996 Pilot -
Not "Simple Green",
"Simple Green Pro HD".
There is a big difference.
The Pro HD formulation won't etch or otherwise fu**up aluminum parts.
Additionally, I mixed it in a lower concentration formula than recommended, didn't leave it on long, rinsed thoroughly and carefully after a short soak, then compressed air and 303 to finish.

Your mileage may vary.
For me, when I look at my engine bay, I say, "there's a cat who looks after his ride."
Money -Mawgie
your expansion tank and cap look old.... get one on order so when the day comes you are ready and dont have to pay full retail at some local Stealer
car looks so much better
Edweird- Will do, loking a little crusty.
Larry-Brand new awesome loking oloking avatar and no love? Tisk tisk. Remember, please, that I linked you to a sweet dark blue Turbo, when you were in the hunt.................
Warmest - Mawgie
p.s. Just shoveled the driveway, because I optimsitcally removed the snowblower from
the tractor last weekend...
Mawgie. Glad that you like the new Avatar. I updated on your suggestion. But I don't understand your comment. Yes, you put me onto a very nice dark blue Turbo while I was hunting. There were others who pointed cars out to me as well. This one happened to be my pick of the pack.
Do you feel like you somehow got cheated?
BTW, looking at 1+ inches expected tonight in the Chicago area. No snow blower, no shovel. The damn stuff will melt in two days, and the Red Devil is in the garage. The Subaru is back in action.

Eddy-
You're killing me.
No lie, I was just looking at that pathetic, urine colored tank now!
I did some googling, and can't find the thing for much less than $200, unless I risk the fly by night e-seller crowd.
Is this an "aircraft maintenance" item, e.g., should change out before end of service life and before it lets go and strands you/lunches motor, or is the yellow just a lovely patina, and I am simply getting EdRolled?
