Something simple like you double-gasketed the oil filter I hope.

Was on my way to work 2 days ago..

Seems like tensioner gave out and the belt walked a little into my timing belt covers then skipped time. Welcome to the bent valve club.

Bummer :(

I swapped in some better condition leather door cards I found at the junkyard. My old door cards sagged badly and look like a dog chewed on it. Next is to replace the center light bar with the 2g version i found on the same junk car. Im lucky it was white like my car.

I did some more painting & electroplating...

Prob not. Its usually the wire that triggers the starter to actually work. It's small, and over time it tends to break down. There are several fixes for it including my super slick fix using OEM parts in the fuse box. :-)
