Its pretty amazing what a Bad o2 Sensor will do to fuel mileage..

$35 later I cant believe the difference!

I replaced mine before a 500mi run to Pennsylvania and back a few years ago... it damn near paid for itself by the end of the weekend.

crack KILLS!

yup... if it had cracked just a little further I would have lost my feet to a flywheel gone walkabout probably :shocked:

So uh.. Dumb question.. But which way are bilsteins supposed to go on? I put them in the same way the factory ones are with the piston up top, but the stickers are upside down that way. So are the pistons supposed to go upside down?

People usually put then upside down if I remember correctly because the bare shaft are higher off the ground and less acceptable to damage and dirt.

Mine are upside down

So your piston is down? Is there any difference to having the piston one way or the other?

 

[bmikes]

Well in my research I discovered they can go both ways....
