I did a search and didn't find any info/threads on how the engines come out, top or bottom, and if there are any tips for the job. Any help would be greatly appreciated Here's the background. So just before the Squirt rolls over 178k, she ups and dies on me. :( 225psi compression in...

I've got a quick and easy one (I hope). I pulled the codes for the check engine light and it say I have a leak in the intake system somewhere. I got out my carb cleaner and spraying where the intake meets the headmakes the rpms jump a ton. So I have the gasket, but what's the torque on the...

Ok, here's the history. The Squirt is a '12 with a 6spd and has roughly 140k on the odo. New air filter and Autolite plugs within the last 10k. Pulled out of the Big M with my barf in a bag and stepped into it kind of heavy, but not matted. The check enigne light comes on as she stumbles a...

Saturday evening I clicked over 100k (after driving it 18 months). During that time I've had the turbo replaced at 60k, the pivot for the wastegate stuck once. Took it into the dealer, diagnosed, codes were cleared, part was order and then I drove it while the part came in (1week). The light...

Been driving her for about 10 months(owned her for almost 11, long story). I hit a big milestone this morning, east bound on I-96 just west of Fowlerville. Clicked over the big 50k. At this rate, I should hit 100k in December.

I need some warranty work and I'm wondering which dealership I should take my car to, Hamilton or Rinke? I work at the tech center, so both are close. Which will do the better job and do they do it quickly?

So I was running late to work because of an accident (a Buick tried to push a new F-250 down the road) and I decided to put my foot in it. Traffic was medium and moving kind normal. I started cutting through it and didn''t pay attention to anything but the other cars. I knew I was booking...

I got t-boned last week. Hurt me, hurt me. Waiting for the body shop to finish the oldest step daughters ride to come out so I can send mine in.

Does your ride have a belly pan? I did an oil change last night and noticed mine doesn't have one. I've got a 1.4t. Is this just a venting issue on the turbo motors? Someone mentioned that cars after a certain date don't have them. Has this verified? I sent an e-mail to the Sonic program...

has anyone noticed that the mileage numbers on the bottom half of their tank get worse?

So I've got steps one and two done. I especially want to thank Tim Hunt at AutoArt for the pinstriping and tramp stamp. As soon as I get the tractor running(restoring/modding an 8n), I'll get on to the next 3 mods. Stay tuned for some cheap thrills.

I really want a couple of promo posters for the garage. Anyone know where I can get a couple?

I really want a promo poster(s) of the Sonic for my garage/barn. It would be great to get 2 or 3 different ones. Anyone know where I can get some?

Picked up my black 1.4l turbo with cruise. Got started on the pinstriping. I've already got the next 8 mods figured out in my head.
