I had to replace mine a while back and got the yellow one from Rock Auto, back when they would still ship to me at home.

Hope to get mine out this weekend for a good warmup, and maybe program (updated calibration) the passenger door module. Maybe get some E85 if I can get the fuel level down below half a tank.

I recently had to relocate my oil catch can. Initially I bolted it to a fuse box cover, like this:

It was OK, but once I had to reach some nut on the side of the engine, so I leaned on the fuse box and torn off the oil catch can:

I had to buy a new case and find a better place for the catch can. I think, I found one. Now you can lift a car by the catch can:

Planned on pulling my power steering pump pulley into alignment with the rest of the pulleys. That was a no-go. The Performance Tool #87022 is not the tool needed to do this job. Have some other options arriving tomorrow. But I must say that the split sleeve with the collar to hold it in place is a piss-poor design.

I did like the Dayco 93874 laser alignment tool, although it is not a good fit for the p.s. pulley - wrong radius doesn't trigger the laser. A bit of Scotch tape solved that problem.

Took pictures, but turned out not showing much of anything. Hope to have this all finished tomorrow. Otherwise, it's going back together as-is - squeaking belt be damned.

Beautiful weather today, so I washed off the nasty road grime from the last snow. I bought the Cerakote wipes, but I’m waiting to do all that work (cleaning) until the weather is consistently better. Got her dressed with the VRP for now. Also reapplied the wax to the window trim. It helps a lot. I’m hoping I can use the wipes on that as well. I’ll have to mask the glass though.

It’s rained like 5 times, cerakote still looking good. Make damn sure you clean the black stuff well. I used purple power, the regular wash, then scrubbed with a brush and blue dawn, and finally wiped with 91% alcohol

Im glad it’s holding up! Thanks again for the recommendation. [emoji106][emoji16]

Yessir! After your review, and reading some others, it definitely has to be done right! That’s why I’m waiting. Just no time right now anyway.
