well it wouldnt piss me off, but a pet peeve of mine is people who correct grammer on online forums. i usually am a decent speller. i will admit i hated english in school but always got at least a b+. i think its just stupid that people will get off subject of a thread just to be a d!ck and correct someones spelling. its not original and its not funny. your not the only ****er that knows how to spell better then 70% of people on forums. and im not sure if im the only one, but when i type out a message i got better things to do then make sure i dont have spelling errors. eh, whatever i guess it shows some of there personallity that you wouldnt get otherwise.

Lighten up man ,, no need for name calling ..And its their not there

A BIG congrats on that granddaughter! I won't tell my wife.

Our youngest got married in January and she's at UW in Seattle, and our youngest son is getting married this coming 02-Aug, so there's a slim chance that someday they'll/we'll have something grand too.

One of the big surprises when doing the water pump/timing belt thing was just how much crud was trapped between/on the radiators.

The old timing belt wrap technique works well with the camshafts and my son came up with a method for wrapping a vinyl coated cable-type dog leash around the pulley/damper that's a lot better than dropping the starter in order keep the flywheel from turning, but being such a youngster, you've probably done all this many times before, in addition to changing your own spark plugs.

Now I have cleaned out my radiator/condensor area.But do tell about the wrapping thing ??I wasn't looking forward to dropping the starter.Maybe a new thread is in order.

I'll work at taking a few photos and posting them in a new thread. I don't like disturbing things that needn't be or jamming tools between otherwise moving parts. The old timing belt and dog leash wrapping techniques are surer, gentler and require no assistance, but it's definitely good to have a helper when it comes to installing the new timing belt.

just 25 but none the less I love my J

[craze K]

I'm 20 now; will be 21 in April. Everyone who sees me with my car says it fits me perfectly.

LOL That was a good one, Made me laugh. (check engine part) I'm 38 and just got mine. The bodies in great shape but the suspension stuff needs work. I'll put up a pics as soon as I geter back from my mechanic.

sounds like a huge age range. I'm feeling old since my son is graduating High school next year. I've had my J for 3 year only 97,000. 67,000 when I got it and drive it every day. I have read enough of the forums to relize that any mods have to be custom which make it even more of a challange and more of a 1 of a kind. so a 350 hp lowered J 30 with a custom body kit would definitly be something that you won't see coming from the other direction. Theres something to be said for a 1 of a kind. You got to have goals.
