Album: DSM - Lost Oil Squirter!
So I went out and got in my car this morning, and plugged in a new palm pilot for datalogging. I started the car, checked that I had a connection on the palm, blipped the throttle, and then I heard a sound that no car owner ever wants to hear: CLANKITY-CLANKITY-CLANKITY CLANK CLANK CLANK!!!! I kill the car, and remember there were roofers working on the house across the street from me. I get out of my car and see them clanking a couple of air nailers up their aluminum latter. ***whew***!!!! I hop back in my car and fire again: CLANKITY-CLANKITY-CLANKITY CLANK CLANK CLANK!!!! fuck, what have I done? Too much boost? I've tuned my car to death lately (rather, tuned it to perfect running health...good fuel trims, no knock, etc). And was just out enjoying it on a few local on ramps on my way home last night. What could I have done that all of a sudden when I start the car this morning THIS happens? Well, at first I thought maybe it was a bolt that came out of the clutch plate or flywheel or some such nonsense (replaced about a year and a half ago, no problems ever). So I start taking stuff apart, and eventually take the oil pan off, and what do I discover? Oil squirter from cylinder #2 chilling in the bottom. it's broken off clean, and has a few nicks in it, but looks fine otherwise, which makes me believe it didn't cause any other damage to cylinder walls or this or that.

Some pics of my hosting facility, and my car at the end of 2004. Some quick stats: I host over 50 websites, over a hundred email addresses, a 40 Gig music collection, and a 100 Gig video collection on 5 machines and over 600 Gigs of file space. And the Talon has roughly 300 awhp. woohoo!
