Well it was kind of late 5:30 and almost dark, but I decided to pull the car cover off and plug the headlight motors back in. I unplugged them from a battery drain caused by the headlight switch.

Anyways while sitting in there gently easing the throttle so the car wouldn't die (bad cold start injector sensor, I think?!) I said what the hey, lets take it out for one last spin this year with this motor. Well I went down to the gas station put the few bucks I had left in for gas. While walking back to the car I kind of noticed how it shined unlike no other car in that parking lot.

Jumped back in the car with a pretty big grin on my face and thought again should I shouldn't I take it for a spin. Well its not hard to see what I chose I took it for spin! came upon a stop sign and on take off gave it some gas through 1st and 2nd wow! its amazing what a new tps, no battery drain and a tightened alternator will do, the car had a lot more pep!!

after that stop sign I basically turned down my road as my little joy ride had concluded. I can say I'll miss the growl of that little V6 and its been fun for the past 5 ½ years.

I guess I can look forward to bigger better things right?

That will be the last ride this year gas is completely full now and back on goes the car cover

Just thought I'd share my story.. I hate winter but I guess its ok in some ways I can brainstorm and get ideas for the car.
