Oh... forgot to mention... It looked like the sensor had been replaced before. As 2 of the locating tabs were ground off to fit the connector. The locking tab (south) & the one exact opposite (north) were ok but the (east & west) tabs were ground off.

Not sure what might be the exact issue with the cruise control... but after adjusting the cable, setting cruise it will accelerate 5mph past, then slowly decel & keep a few mph above set speed. And it seems the few times I used the decel on the cruise stalk it wanted to accelerate! I only tried cruise a few times so not sure exactly what's happening. I might try & take a video, will probably make more sense there.



Bison are the coolest!! Especially when they attack people that get to close to them in national parks, LMAO. Definitely will do that next time!

The cable adjustment is probably just donked up.
Service info just says less than 10mm free play, so shoot for 5mm free play on the cable adjustment for that and see how it does. There's a list of symptoms and possible causes but I'm not sure any of those would be helpful.

Yeah I did see some of the service info. Just need more motivation to work on it again, lol.

Kinda a dumb question... Any recommendations for fog light bulbs (H3 style)? I want amber/ yellow color.

So back in October of '24 I put in a new battery Deka brand 800cca (734RMF) to replace the Walmart Neverstart that was in the car since I bought it, yes I killed it a few times but always charged back up. Sounds dumb but it made a difference, no more major dimming of the lights when stepping on the brakes, voltage & when the a/c fans kick on the car feels like it doesn't want to stall now.


It's been a month & a half since I started the car, been in the garage because of MidWest weather & road salt. So while I was out cleaning up the driveway of snow, I let it run for a hour in this lovely 9°F weather. At least it was sunny.


I have some 7th gen wheels that I want powder coated in a stock like color & get some tires too. Hopefully before summer but who knows.


Cool stories I know.

If they made them in 7th gen size I might. The only other performance tire I'd consider is the Direzza 3 or whatever. But I don't drive hard enough for a performance tire so I'll probably go with Continental DWS06.
