Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?

For the 8 dollars it costs for the hose and 15 minutes in time, It may save you some headaches in the future.
GOOD ADVICE! and thanks for the photo . . . Our Crossfires are aging and this type of attention is definitely needed!
Sent you a PM. Do like your exhaust system. Curious to know who the manufacturer is. Part#s? As you modded your car, did you ever baseline it to the various changes you made as you went along. That would be ideal to see which mod gave you bang for the buck. If you did , could you share this here? Oh, full of questions so bear with me . Further on your exhaust, did you stay with stock manifolds, catless? Lastly, any drone on this system at any speed?
Installed my hybrid Borla exhaust on my recently purchased Roadster.
Also took time to install the auxiliary battery to block, ground cable.
James , there are those BIG tips again...love them...wanting to get them for my red coupe...BTW, getting it painted (same color (more metallic), next week...hope to have it by the Dragon...miss seeing you guys....

I got my first check engine light (at least that I can remember) today. I hooked it up to the scanner and got P0400. I opened the hood, started to poke around and found a couple of extremely dry rotted vacuum hoses. Replaced them and let the car run for a bit. It seems to be okay now but I'll have to wait and see if the light comes back on.

The Fuel Line on my SRT6 looks like that. I am actively trying to find a replacement. Didn't see any on eBay or otherwise. I really need to run up to the ole Mercedes Dealership to have them order me one. Too many SRT6 owners insist on parting the entire engine as a whole. Didn't have the same Part # as the NA.
Very nice
Are you in competition with Crystal to see how many Crossfire's you can own ? lol
Hahahaha Gary! Nice new one Bob! I think I saw that one for sale near your place and thought it was yours for sale at first. Can't go wrong with TWO black SRT6 Roadsters.

How did it go? What all did Mr. Cichon fix you up with this time? And is it at all a possibility he will make a brief appearance?

How did it go ? It's not Saturday yet, I'll let you know.
Only goodies he has that were promised to me are the salt & pepper shakers.
No possibility of a brief appearance he said.

Nice, what does the red license plate mean please?
I was doing some work on my interior last night in the garage and left my overhead interior lights on overnight. 😡. Wondering if I should put a charger on the battery or just try to start it and drive it around some?
I believe it is like we use in the states, usually grey? I believe if you like to run toll booths, that makes the license # unreadable to the photo cameras. Just a guess one hundred 80?
