    got home after work this morning and noticed a "clatter" type noise, kinda sounds like a loud valve/lifter clatter. Check oil, maybe half quart low and due for a change (stopped on way home and bought oil/filter already), but the kicker... look under car and see something leaking. :( Gonna change into work clothes and get the car in the garage so my fingers will function decent to figure out what it is...

    FML, it sure sounds like the YouTube vids of rod knock on these things. Only right off idle though... not sure why that is...

    Went to Morries Minnetonka today to get my front control arms coated and while i was there, got the spark plugs replaced. At 136k, the fxt needed 'em badly. Doing them at home was impossible for some reason. Couldn't get the coils out because of there was no room to pull them out. Nonetheless, it got the sluggish acceleration taken cared of so im a happy camper.

    Yesterday I hauled the heads, TGVs and new (to me, cracked ring lands) STi short block down to Fuji to work his magic.

    Today I cleaned up the garage, put all the parts from the car into the trunk and pushed it outside for now. Got more projects lined up that'll pay me $$ so it's gotta sit out 'til the engine's ready to go in.

    Went to Cub foods today and when i came out an older couple was getting into their Outback wagon. The guy said "Look honey, it's a Subaru parked next to our Subaru!" I looked up while loading my groceries and said to them, "Yeah, they ARE pack animals!" Lol, they smiled at the comment.:D
