Ha. The whole floor was rust. Lol there are welds on the underside and I didn't hear any vibes on the drive home but I like the expanding foam idea. Is there foam on the market that won't melt near the exhaust line?

hmmm..... I doubt it unless you can find some chimney or furnace sealer of some sort..... Could be remedied with some strategically placed foil under the heep.

A basically "missing" O2 sensor could cause his jeep to be running too lean causing it to want to stall out.

Its definitely doing something funky with it. Because ever since i tore out the wiring it surges from time to time.

Was keying into my car when some guy tried to jump me for my keys. In one solid frail motion I turned and rocked him in the face. He fell back, and by that time I got my crow bar and my boss had ran over.

He's in the back of a cop car now.

I'm going to bed.

So being indecisive with tax returns. I've got plenty of money for rent/food, so this is money to blow.

Stuck between utter zj overhaul or trying to find another little xj to drive. And them build up the zj.

Or some **** like that.
