Possible Monthly install meets. Bay Area-Fremont

I’ll be around! I have a friend in the hospital and my visits will take priority, but I’m otherwise free. The Prius is in Portland, so I’ll just have a rental car, but I can help out, or eat your food.

 

You can come inspect my car’s head gasket repair.

 

I’ll send the PM tonight with address and more info .

Sounds like we’ll have a good crowd.

 

I’d bring that minivan by for some work, but I cut my hand a week ago and it still has stitches, so I should probably avoid wrenching this weekend.

 

I can do the brakes, you can direct. Why don’t you just bring it by?

 

Wow! Ok, I’ll try to make this happen. I’ll update you.

 

I'll pick up and grill sausages for the group. It would be great if we had volunteers for:

- bottled water (case)
- baked beans (2 big cans)
- potato salad (probably a qt will do)
- chips (2 bags)

Look forward to seeing the group.

Marc

 

Getting chips now

 

I’ll get the baked beans.

 

I'll be the water boy

Thanks to all of those who made it out to @Pedal Logic ’s yesterday.

Some pics from the meet up:



We eventually got to the watermelon:



Jobs done:
Pedal Logic with an egr circuit cleanse. Before the pressure washer:


After (10 minutes at 1700 psi):



Also did a spark plug swap, so some pics of the cylinders with the endoscope (order is from passenger to drivers side):


Not sure why #1 and #4 are so damp as there is no oil consumption .

@Grit had an inverted coolant loop flush as well as spark plug swap. Another job where we got to use the endoscope (same order as above):



So the reverse is true for Grit. This is also a non-oil burner.

@RMB had new lowering springs and front strut tower brace installed. Sounds like the ride home had some placebo effect involved.

@The Critic helped me up the wattage on our Primes exterior:



First time I’ve ever clayed a car and it turned out fantastic .

We didn’t get a chance to get @Landon51 ’s jobs this round.

Maybe soon.

Thanks again to Pedal Logic for hosting.

 

Sorry I missed it. How many miles did that EGR have on it?

 

100 k miles.

Not that many, but it is sorted now .

 

When is the next meet?

Open to suggestions .

 

Awesome . Count me in for the next meet.

 

Iam good anytime anytime after July 25th. Can't do Sundays as that is family day. Saturdays would be great.

 

We’ll see what we can do.

Willing to host?

 

I am also interested in the next meet.
