Speaking of the new emblem - look what cat dragged into my mailbox!!!

Lol!! I'll admit I'm not a huge fan of the new generation supercars and their hybrid gas/electric setups....but those exhausts up top on that thing negates that; especially when they're shootin out flames like an afterburner!

So how'd the thing drive?!?!?!?

Hydraulic Steering Fluid Flush
I had noticed a vibration when turning the steering wheel from all the way to the left, back to the centre. Today we flushed the Hydraulic Steering Fluid and refilled it. What came out was brown and ugly. Seems to have fixed the problem.

Water pump is in and back on the road.

AC belt was worn and did not want to drive to Classic BMW in Plano for part, checked the Gates Belts online application chart, showed PN K050405. Went to auto parts store local and counter person looked it up to find the same PN. After getting the belt and installing (with tensoner adjusted full tension) it was loose. Drove to Classic BMW, got the 507-626 ContiBelt, works fine.

Compared the 2 belts and the ContiBelt is shorter then the Gates belt by 1/2".

Gates Corp gets a MAJOR FAIL for having an item application listed online and at the retail level that won't work! Hey Gates, get your head out.
