This is after two days of driving to work, just wanted to see if I could make it two days in a row. Apparently I can, but it takes 19.58 gallons out of a 20 gallon tank. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

One of the few things I enjoy in life was driving a manual and it's getting to the point where I can't do it anymore. It'd be one thing if I was in my 50's or older, but having these kinds of problems in my ****ing early 20's is infuriating.

Changed my waterpump, thermostat, and did a timing change. Also found a loose bolt that was eating my power steering belt up... Oh and I filled my tires up that were apparently 10psi low... So in other words my Celica runs like shes brand new
 Funny thing is that this is my old belt:  Still looks like new after almost 100k. My idler and tensioner pulley and spring were worn out though. The thermostat was beyond broken (causeing the ecu to pull timing due to my car never getting to proper run temp, plus it idled higher). It was a pain in the ass, took way longer then expected and I ran into multiple problems. But overall way worth it. My car purrs more then it did before.
