Maybe this tip will help my car start up in the cold mornings. My 05 2.3 sedan struggles a bit to sart up when it is cold in the morning 40 degrees and below. Plus it wont hurt to see if i get quicker responses.

what could you have possibly done to not be able to go back Richard? j/k You should come back here, at least I would know one cool Mazda owner in Indiana.
How would Richard's presence solve that?
+111111 LOLL. i was just thinking that too. and yea lets see here. 51 year old guy who looks like my old driving instructor *ironically drives a protegay* and drives a 2004 mazda3 hatch back thats modded up to look like something a 21 year old kid would be driving. considering and i know hes gonna shoot me for this one, but lets say we all chip in and buy him a 2006 mercury grand marquis . now im gonna get banned [8D]
Kill two birds with one stone, I'll trade him my Malibu.

So i scraped the paint off. I drove my car around for a bit and i stalled once when i came to a stop in manual mode, and nearly stalled two other times when coming to a stop. My car's revs go up and down between 500 and a little below when im at a stop. before i did this mod i thought i needed a new battery because my car needed to be jumped twice. Once when starting it in 15 degree weather, and the second when it hadn't been driven in a day, also in cold weather. Off to advanced for a new battery. hopefully this is the issue. If this doesnt work i hope by putting touch up paint on it will bring the car back to normal.

It seems Vince wants my Virgin1? This is at least the second time he has tried to get me to trade or sell her to him. What"s that all about? Tired of the Chevy, Vince?

And Jaimie seem to wants to get me into a Brown Vicky/Bland Marquee?

Speaking of what it"s all about, what is that post of your about, Scott? Specifically, "a *gay voice* blueeee Prius?"

You guys are sick, and I mean that inthe old school way.

I am quite secure in my sexuality, whatever that may be, thank-you, and am not in the least bit homophobic.
