So I'll post more when I'm done about my car but want to get this up and out there and get started thanks for let me join And I'll talk to you all in about an hour hopefully

I don't believe there are many folks here that would post from underneath the car :)

Replacement went well. A little bit of glitter, but no chunks or major concerns for the moment. Gasket sealant is drying and oil going back in tomorrow morning. Hopefully by then I can figure out posting pics without get told my file is to large

best bet is to use a site like www.picresize.com to make the pictures smaller.

It did! Engine bay looks pretty clean. What's the red power wire over the air intake tube for? I'd maybe run the wire under it, so you don't fit with that wire if you were to mess with the air intake.

Lol red wire is temporary... the previous owner decided to remove the reverse lights and had dummy lens. I just found this out when one popped off.. so I threw a set of fog lights I had laying around up under the rear bumper. Lol didn't judge. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
