    Black car should get the M42 and the white car get the OBD1 S52 and all those other goodies.

        Well, she made it home with no issues. Pretty fun even in mostly stock form.

                You work at JF? Are you the one with the black e30 usually parked in JF5 parking lot? I just started a job at JF5, "SW Validation Test Engineer". I work in JF5 South Lab.

                  Yes I am still at JF, have not left from the spot I was in when you last left. No the black E30 @ JF is 4tDX. I am going to be the other white e30 in the parking lot soon enough

                    Might be someone else? I switched buildings a couple months ago and stopped parking over there. I've also been driving a Delphin coupe for the last couple of months. Usually park near JF2.

                    Occasionally I see an extremely clean Zinoberrot 325is rocking non-tucked diving boards. Yet, to bump into the guy.

                      I thought you were in a 4 door black car awhile back, Jbird lives across the street from JF. So shes probably seen both of your cars ;)

                      Everyone in LAD kept asking if that was my 4 door

                        Well i got the coupe for cheap and fixed it up for my DD while I swapped an S50 into the black 4-door! Had it running shortly, but ran into an electrical issue, so it is back down till I get the time to work on it.

                          Got the rotten eggs smell today. I am thinking the O2 sensor is probably what has been causing my warm running issues :)

                              My instrument cluster error indicators remain on after the car is running: Park Brake, Brake Fluid, Anti-Lock, and Battery. This is on an '89 w/ automagic.

                              I'm guessing this is just the Ignition Switch wearing out. It looks like the the "Start" portion of the ignition switch is actually a series of connections and the indicator lights are one of the first connections in this series.

                              The Brake Lining and Oil level indicator lights are on a different circuit, so that makes sense that they are night lighting up.

                              Anyway, just want to get other thoughts and experiences before I tare into it in case I am missing something.
