    Fog Light Installation Issue

    Nokya has a 6000K version of the LED fogs I got. Might be worth looking into, especially if you cruise around with them lit all the time (ZXEs will be more expensive in the long run),

    2000 Corolla VE Maintenance

    Could have picked that up cheaper at an Auto Parts store like O'Reillys.

    2ZR-FE Turbo Kit

    Alloy means it will handle some power, more-so than rubber.

    MPG Update

    Scott, the timing was set to 17° (factory spec was 12° BTDC), so I needed premium or I would knock. Gave me an extra few horses :-)

    I Can Really Use Some Help - Opinion on Toyota Fading Fast

    There is no filter in a manual transmission and the fluid change interval is for automatics only.

    MPG Update

    In Reno they don't use E15, but they oxygenate the fuel in the winter time, and it is murder on mileage. My '82 Mustang GT would get about 12 mpg in the winter, on a good day. At least back when I was driving I could fill a 15 gallon tank for $22 from empty. With Premium...

    CV Shaft Drivers side and Passenger Side

    Watch the video that Scott posted (he did it by using a prying tool instead of a slide hammer). There is a clip on the driver side half shaft that you will have to break loose to remove the driver side. You can do what he did, but if that doesn't work, and you can't get a slide hammer, remove...

    I'd be interested in seeing a numbered list of all of the things you do that save fuel while driving.

    MPG Update

    Probably killing the engine at red lights, and timing the red lights so that he doesn't have to get back to the speed limit from 0.

    For Those Who Want Fog Lights

    fishy, hazards are a sign of danger, not yellow fogs. They do cut through fog, as yellows tend to penetrate through particulates without casting a reflection. Even if it is white light through a yellow filter, the result is the same

    Fog Light Installation Issue

    You might be tapping into a wire that sends the power from the mirror to the switch, and not the wire that sends power to the switch itself? Use a multimeter, start probing voltage for wires that have power with the car on, then verify no voltage when the car is off. Just avoid any wires that...

    fishy, like when the voltage is constant for a set period of time? That would be cool!

    Fog Light Installation Issue

    By illuminated, do you mean the text? Or the fog light power indicator? If the fog lights aren't on and the indicator says otherwise, it could be a defective switch, or the switch is picking up stray voltage from a hot-at-all-times circuit. Shut the car off and see what voltage is getting to the...

    Fog Light Installation Issue

    Tapping into the traction control is baaaaad! It should have worked tapping into the power mirrors, sure you are on a lead and not the ground? Test your connection with a multimeter?

    Yeah, I've ran my battery down a couple times, but I've always driven manuals so I just bump-start the car :-)
