Started cleaning sludged engine

man I'm not sure if they were torx or something weird. I think I used my phone's camera to look at the bolt heads to see what they were.

Well I got the old pan off, had to pry it. guess what, the new pan doesn't fit. The mid pipe has to be out of the way to get the new pan in place.

I take it will fit with the mid pipe in, it just won't install with the mid pipe there? Either way that's a bum deal. More work. Damn.

Damn, this thread blew up while I was away.

I firmly endorse the notion to replace the trans fluid by letting it drain out of the cooler line and chasing it with new fluid funneled in through the filler/dipstick tube. I've done this plenty of times without fail. It sounds sketchy and can be nerve-racking at first. But the filler tube can flow more fluid in than what the trans is pumping out. It's a highly effective and rather simple way to do a thorough fluid change. It costs you twice as much fluid, but that's still far cheaper than paying a shop to hook it to a machine that'll do essentially the same thing. Plus, it's fun. It's another thing you can do that the neighbors would be all like "You know what that crazy ****** with the diesel-flooded engine did now? He let it run while the trans bled all out into a bucket..."

Then, you can be all like:

And we'll be all like:





And your girl will be all like:

That reminds me of a Bronx story after Sandy. My buddy brought a jeep for 500 bucks with a locked motor. We filled it with fuel and manually turned it until it froze. We got it running great in 2 days. He begged me to put in a radio he had so I did and behind the glove box I find a envelope full of cash. I said to him yo you almost lost this he said what that ain't mine. It had 3 grand in it. So they paid him 2500 to free up a motor and keep the jeep. He still has it.

$100 on a cup holder from @goodinblack

That reminds me, i once bought a 78 cutlass for 75 bucks, found 50 under the back seat..... drove that ***** to bronx daily, parked wherever i wanted, didnt give a f about it..... granted it had no radio, and every day i had to fill up the power steering fluid, i used atf, cheaper and thicker so it lasted longer, if i wanted power steering.....on that particular day.....one time....long time ago....in my life..... once.....when i was young.... then..... yeah... i did..... true story.....

According to the Urban Dictionary :

chimpo
A conversationally appropriate slang for man's ***** in Japanese language. Variants: chimpoko, chimbo, chinko, chinchin, and so on.
You're lucky you got rid of that loose skin covering your chimpo; it makes your chimpo too sensitive.

This is true, no lie... this is why I laugh when i see your screen name....

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but isn't it a Super Troopers reference?
