Leave it to me to introduce myself in the TX thread before noticing there is an "Introductions" forum.

Hey Mark, long time no see... how's the vdub treating you

Hello

 

[007Tacoma]

The VW has been great up until I learned last week that 2 of the injectors are way out of spec. Hence I haven't been getting 45 MPG and been a bit closer to 35 MPG. So, I am debating my next move. Injector rebuild is $1,150 and new injectors are $2,000. That is with me removing them myself and reinstalling them. I love my diesel engines, but I will never own another one with unit injection.

To make matters worse, I am super poor right now. I get married on 09/10/11 in Colorado. I have 7 week old son who is the coolest thing I have ever come up with.

...but I am good at hanging out and drinking beer.

Hey Mark!! Welcome and congrats on the newborn. They are pretty damn cool! Time to get him out in the garage and help with those injectors.

 

[007Tacoma]

Thanks! I have a feeling that he will be super interested in the inner workings of my non-existent garage. He is the most curious kid I have ever seen.

 

[Silverback]

Yeah, I have a 18 month old and she thinks my old Yota is pretty cool. She likes the tires.

 

[007Tacoma]

Of course - they are like her dad... badass!

She's riden in it a few times (just up and down the driveway) and she doesn't quite know what to think yet. Its loud... and she can see the ground through the doors. But I figure I'll get her into it early.

MARK! Glad you found us man. If you need a hand with those injectors, just give me a ring. I don't know shit about VWs, but I can sure turn a wrench.

As I like to say... Brain Surgery, most anyone can do it, you just have to be able to break it down to small enough increments.

You're a douche. The only times my AC has frozen up, leaving it ON draws more moist air though and makes the ice worse.
