Anything maintenance-related that you do not know how to do, post it up. Don't post requests for putting leds in the cupholders or anything crazy like that, just maintenance/fixes for things that are bothersome with the tib. They will go in the DIY listing under maintenance, with a reference in the New Users Section as well.

I'll start off with a few that we need, and what I plan to do soon:

-Timing belt change
-Oil change
-Radiator fluid change
-Bleeding the brakes

Is anyone interested in a DIY gasket making? I just recently made a throttle body gasket and a gasket for inbetween the top and bottom parts of the AirRam.

Every part of doing a FULL tune-up. I have an <u>idea</u> on how to do most parts. i.e.: spak plugs/wires, ol/filter(easy as pie. mmmmm.... pie), radiator flush (did this to my geo and had nothing but problems), fuel filter, belts, etc. etc.

Also, a good list on the best and affordable parts to go with?

Thanks

Just bump up the one you are talking about. What's wrong with it?

how about the wheel bearings?

with how much of a problem they supposedly are, i was just surprised there wasnt one already.

i'm replacing mine today, and i'm getting help from my cousin. im sure he wouldnt mind me takin notes/pics while he's doing it. but i'm really not sure and since i dont know what i'm doing anyway. if one of you that have done it want to do a tut on it, i'm sure it will help a few people here.

i also looked on webtech, but not all the pics are up...
