Yup I’ve been looking for Michelin’s and it seems they are on national back order.

I am extremely happy with my Hankooks evo3. Not as grippy when cold compared to the Pzero’s, extremely goo when warm and hot. More predictable compared to the Pzero

Lil Hemi putting in some work in the burbs. All that springtime yard stuff.

 

[Lil Hemi]

Had an interesting drive into work today. I wasted two mustangs on the highway, one of which looked modified and then smoked a Camaro at a light. Lil Hemi was taking no prisoners on the commute today lol.

 

[Lil Hemi]

Lil Hemi down!!!! God damn **** in the road punctured my fuel tank while I’m headed to okc. I patched is as good as I could with epoxy putty but it’s still got a slow drip. Trying to make it there and epoxy it some more. Fml!!!!

 

[Lil Hemi]

Well, I got to okc and it wasn’t dripping anymore. I bought another pack of tank weld and after a cleaning and sanding of the area, I slapped another half tube on it and it stuck this time. Gonna let it cure before I refuel, just to be on the safe side and I’ll get it replaced when I get home. Who wants to bet on how much they cost? No peeking but I’m saying $1500 plus labor. I’m thinking insurance should handle it though.

 

[Lil Hemi]

Thoughts n prayers that it’ll hold till I get home.

That had to crazy odds to puncture your tank like that. Glad your were able to get it patched to continue your trip.

That’s what I was saying. What are the odds?! Lottery ticket time I guess. Lol. I’m just super lucky that I was at a truck stop that had the putty but on the other hand, that thing probably fell off of a truck in the first place. This jeep is such a money pit already that it didn’t even phase me

 

[Vanquishglory]

That sucks. I think you should try getting a used tank. Don’t really see the point on buy new. Or you could get a larger custom fuel tank with a proper sump to prevent fuel starvation

I already have the Fore triple pump system with Holley socks though. I’m going to see what insurance says and then go from there.

Nice patch job! I'll take $2400 (didn't look it up)

 

[Lil Hemi]

I peaked, seems super reasonable but I bet the labor will be about a grand. I’ve dropped that tank before and I will say no thank you this time. I’ll let the speed shop down the street have the pleasure of swapping all that stuff over.

 

[Skltr]

Oh wow, I was waaay off. The trick maybe finding one?

Can always check salvage yard, just clean it out good

Not willing to risk another engine, especially if a new one is only 500

 

[Lil Hemi]

The patch job is still holding, haven’t had time to get it to the shop. I completely destroyed a C8 the other day. Rolling in 2nd, gave him 2 cars before I hit it. I was 6-8 cars ahead when I let off.
On another note, Lil Hemi is officially mine now, title in hand. Would’ve been sooner but I had to put in that motor.

 

[Skltr]

Couple of great feelings right there!

 

[Lil Hemi]

Aghhhhhh! What now?! I tried resetting DTCs but it’s still there. I’m going to do the battery when I get home and hope that will reset it. I was WOT, passing a few people on a two lane road when it popped up.

Intermediate MAP sensor (IMAP), could have been temporary, battery disconnect may clear it
