I missed over 40 pages of this thread.
That is what I get for not checking like I used to.

Yeah but did you really miss anything?
Cool thing about a thread like this. It's like walking into your favorite pub with your favorite buddies already at the bar. You just join in with the conversation the best you can.

Dr Moab wins the golden shower trophy for diagnosing a bad coil from half way across the country.
Changed the coil and I can't get it to stall. Now I need to replace the exhaust.

That's why I got a 98. Cap and rotor is much easier to work with I've found.

Tire places, gotta love them.
Took the Neon in today and told them to swap the tires side to side so I could get the inside sidewalls on the outside, and to swap them front to back also.
Spent 15 minutes talking about it and how they would have to charge me to do it. Fine, whatever, just get it done damnit!
Tech comes in a while later with a set of 1/8" Spacers in his hand that they removed from the rear wheels. He went on to explain to me about the safety issues... I finally got him to tell me what he came out to tell me, that he wasn't going to put them back on.
He gives them to me, not wrapped up, but just hands me these spacers with anti-seize on them. I go to the john, roll out some towels and wrap them up.
He gets done. Rear tires rub slightly on the control arms. I take it back, he drives it to verify the issue, put it on lift, spins the tires... nothing.
I say to him: "A little history here. When I got this setup from you guys, the rear tires rubbed on the control arms, so I put in the spacers."
He put the spacers back on and apologized for the inconvenience.

Bought some leaf springs off Dan, now to wait for the MWC parts train to get south enough for me to get them. I plan on try to beef them up somehow (though I despise add a leafs, if it gets me a few more years before I get a better lift kit, so be it).

Had a similar experience at Sam's club yesterday. Got a lecture from the guy rotating the tires on the truck about tire pressure. He said "You had 87 psi in your rear tires and they're only rated for 80."
I said, "Yeah, 80 psi cold" and then he says "right, but even warm they only go up 3 or 4 psi."
"It's a 30 minute drive here chief and its 90 degrees outside and we're not talking about grandmas passenger tires at 30 psi. Got a degree in air pressure in your back pocket?"
"I set them to 75 because that's what's on the door jamb. Have a nice day sir"
