I'll have to think about it
    Ok.. but, then you have to set yourself straight to flip it.. and not end up keeping it.. that one issue I always have, I wanna and try to keep EVERYTHING......

    Second, is it a 4500 car with those miles on it? I so, I think you can find a nose cheaper than that if you go used.....may even locate a black one.....

    ^ lol.

    Just replaced the vapor canister in my TA and cleared the code. Hopefully that was it and I won't see any more lights coming on, and maybe even some better gas mileage. Otherwise I still have some poking around to do to figure out what's up with my crappy gas mileage. Getting anywhere from 11-13 mpg average per fill up... (All city)

    Lol for stock, this is pretty bad. I used to get 17-18 all city when I bought it 2 years ago. It's dropped pretty bad since then. I wonder if seafoaming the car a year ago didn't foul up my O2s as well that's roughly about when it started getting worse and worse.

    That's the weird part, no other SES codes. Just the vapor can one which I just cleared earlier. Yeah I'm 6 speed and skip shift plenty of the time and keep the revs low when cruising.
