    FS: 3rd Gen 6K Projector Headlight Kit - NORCAL

    I bought all these with intention of building mini Xenon Projector 6K for my daughter's car but don't have the time: All are new in box condition. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002R1G7T8/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1...

    Why Does the Thermostat Jiggle Valve Position Make Such a Big Difference?

    I appreciate it, I do have an ELM ODB II device but the app I use is rubbish, need to get something going there. Appreciate you and all the forums help.

    Navigating the 4R into a parking spot?

    Why Does the Thermostat Jiggle Valve Position Make Such a Big Difference?

    Welp, I did this before I bought the FSMs. I found a diagram online and clearly mistook what I was looking at for the book.

    Happened to me on the 3rd gen, don't know if I caused by overfilling but that little canister was expensive to replace..this was long before I started working on my own car. I guess they mean it when they say, don't top-up!!!

    2001 SR5 Miles per gallon

    2001 SR5 4x4 stock wheels 340-360 on a full tank highway..much less than that short distance, 280'ish. So 16-20 MPG (usual fill is about 17 Gallons)
