Is that regardless of the tires on the car?

Its for as long as I own the car and isn't transferable hence needing to swap vin tags. I paid $180 including taxes, fees, and whatever other nickel and diming they could think of.

I verified with the manager that it is for the life of the car, as often as I want, no mileage limits, and absolutely no future cost including shop fees. Considering that an alignment cost $80 I think I got a pretty good deal. As long as Firestone doesn't go bankrupt I am all set.

When I get around to replacing one of my rear shocks (long story) I am going to bring the thing in again for another alignment.

Great deal if it follows the car while you own it!

I'm no electrician, so someone please correct me if I've made a mistake here.

That delay module is only rated 10A max...you might want to use a relay as in the guide.

[Farrar]

Thanks, Ron! I will sketch something up and see if it works.

In other news, I can't use my new fuel pump yet, because there's a coupling stuck in the bottom of the fuel pump carrier which I can't remove. Bill Robertson must have the best thread-lock compound on the planet...

It will have to wait until Sunday.

I bet it isn't a fitting -- it's probably the threaded end of a piece of tubing that extends all the way through the pipe cap (that's how mine is). Hold the tubing still and spin the cap off like a big nut.

That would work, but the load is still going through the delay module. Actually, that's how the switched line coming in is stock (but feeds a lot of things). They should add "Enable" to their relay...it got me too. lol

I'd try this:

Ahhhh I see now. That, combined with the coffee I had this morning, makes a lot more sense than what I came up with last night.

Thanks!

Im starting to think you should not open up DMCTalk until the first cup of joe has been downed. Been living by that for a few years now.

The corollary to that would be that I can't go online after I've had a beer. And as we all know, the Internet is more fun with alcohol.

Hey, where's that "Coffee" emoticon we used to have?
