Started grinding down the flange in my APN header. Hoping it allows my intake to finally seal properly.

Cleaned a couple things up, installed a new ignition coil and replaced the rusty exhaust from the cat back. Didn't bother with a muffler and it's really not that loud.

That is my eventual plan but the budget has been thin lately. The replacement spiders were free so at least I can still wheel it until the funds for a locker are available.

It happens when there is to much pressure applied to the skinny pedal.

I heavily apply the skinny pedal on and offroad, was there water and sand in there for lubrication?
