Are you trying to sell something outside of the For Sale section? You know I'm just itching to give you an infraction. Let this be a warning to you. I've got both eyes on you and I"m watching you like a hawk. Screw up one time Procrastination Dude, and you'll be infracted soo quick you'll want to start a thread over on Supraforums telling them how bad the moderators are over here......:evil2:
Congrats on the new job Scott. Sorry for the off topic, but I've been trying really hard to catch that one screwing up since he refuses to work on his car.

I will accept your congrats Jay. But, don't be coming in here picking on my procrastination twin. Maybe you should be watching the guy below who is trying to sell something.

It is a city job, not rural, so I will get the RHD white van with a bird on the side. I do applaud you for trying to rid yourself of yet another distraction, but I didn't even know you had a RHD distraction.

Luckily I will be in that van at almost all times. They have only one route that requires walking, and that is in the downtown business district. Maybe the dogs won't be too bad on me.
I don't get to start for a couple of weeks, so it's going to kill me waiting.

I will be working in the land of bikini clad women......Foley, Al, just a few miles north of Gulf Shores.

That is a long ways to drive from our little city, but at least it is a decent job. Hopefully you can eventually work in a zipcode closer to home one day.
Mapquest has it at 48 miles. And, at 5:30-6:00 in the morning there shouldn't be too much traffic. I've got to be there at 7:00 every day. I guess I'll find a routine once I finally get there.
***NEWS Update!***
I just got my car started!
I have no idea what fixed it. What finally allowed it to start, was when I found my damn CPS not plugged in. I tested it, while late in the testing. It of course was plugged in when I drove it home, before I found it not able to start. It hasn't been long since I tested the CPS.
Anyway, it does run, but the idle is holding at about 2400RPM, and I still have no tach or check engine light. Next course of action is to set my TPS.

I did some more testing, and found that the ground at my EFI fuse is bad in the fuse box. I have a 92 fuse box coming from Toostand soon. This bad ground causes voltages to fluctuate wildly, and for a while my NEO and Turbo Timer were getting fluctuating power as well. Due to all that, I am waiting on the replacement fuse box, before fooling with the TPS.
Idle is still high, but I have done some driving around in it for the last 2 days. I'm still going to have to break my new clutch in, before driving it hard. I'm also worried about it cutting fuel during a hard pull, so I have just been babying it around breaking in the clutch. It hasn't had any signs of power outage to the TT or NEO in the 2 days, so I will continue to drive it around until I have to start going to work. Once the new fuse box gets here, I will worry with the TPS if I still have to. I'm pretty sure I will.
The accustomed Cross Picture. This will be updated again, after the rear bumper is painted. If you look close enough, you can see the new front mud flaps. This will soon be my sig picture.
And, Here is a picture of the Teal car that I may have mentioned in here before. Once I have a paycheck again, I plan to try to go make an unrefuseable offer for this. Again, a camera pic, and from a pretty good distance.

HRMMMM if that 92 is an automatic you should let me have it or if its just a 5 speed i may still want it... maybe let you get my 1j instead. the wife and kid are giving me guff about not having a driver side airbag at least. So ive been thinking about finding a 90+ instead of the 86.5
