Post Hoosier1104 Maintenance Log

This is to keep track of the maintenance that I have done since I bought the car last summer.

Replaced:
  • Coils (Twice. 2nd time upgraded to BHR Ignition)
  • Cat (Twice. 2nd time upgraded to BHR midpipe)
  • Plug wires (Twice. 2nd time upgraded to MSD wires)
  • Spark plugs
  • CAI
  • Engine (Purchased with low compression)
  • Wheels and tires (stock rims would not hold air)
  • Cat-back exhaust (previous owner straight piped it)
  • Tail lights (stock allowed moisture in the drivers side assembly)
  • Oil Pan (Attempted to fix it and made it worse. Going to Dealer on Wed, 2 July, to get it resealed)
  • Oil Change (Twice. Once before winter hit and the second is when I attempted to reseal my oil pan)

This is for my reference generally and will be updated when a maintenance action is performed. If you have questions ask any way.

Update:

Oil pan is bent and not re-usable. Sourced a new one from MazMart. - $99
Oil pressure kit (since the pan is already off, why not) - $55

How did you bend the oil pan and break the rear door?

The pan was bent when I got it back from having the engine replaced and the door has a massive dent in it. I bought it with the dent.
