well I finally was able to get Buddy into the garage, first one who was lower cost was booked out until next week, which wasn't going to work, so yea time to fire off the Buck$Zooka a few times, anyways on a positive note, I know I most likely don't need to, but I decided to go ahead and replace the fuel filter on the Mustang, figured it does have 87K on it so it probably could be good to change it...

Well I got buddy back and already notice a HUGE difference in how the clutch works!! It's a day and night difference. Now I just need to sort out the engagement of gears 2 and 4 as they like to "move" out of gear when I release the clutch.

well been away for a bit but got quite a bit done, got the transmission all dialed in, got the oil changed and tires rotated (did that my self) also installed a mild sound system and a sub in the trunk, to help fill out the music some...also had someone hit my truck so dealing with that now, but what ever.

Testing that all LEDs work, and not sure if I will swap to different bulbs...they don't seem to throw light where needed, but what ever, its worth a try
