tabbie the black rt has been running worse and worse the last few days. Started with common issues, cam sensors and magent. Magent and sensor was roached. Still ran poorly when done  

Did a compression test 170 across the board, plugs looked fine, has correct fuel pressure, plug wires ohmed out fine. Gonna pull upstream 02 and take a look at the cat, got a sneaking thought it might be my issue.

Which one is going on this block?

BTW I had good luck with the HF powder gun and an old oven when I was building paintball markers. It takes very little to get set up to powdercoat smaller items.

Unsure yet, got another stripped with a few trips through the buzz box, might polish it. 

If I had the room I'd do some home powdercoating.

I love it, when working on old crappy cars it makes cleaning much easier. Got my first one off ebay, got this big one off marketplace.

Ran the dog E36 M3 out of the generator last night due to a power outage. She got a little warm 

As I was putting stuff away, I need to do a shed clean out sooner rather than later.
