Anyone else seeing fuel in their oil samples? It could be the dealer cold starting the car and dropping the oil right after, but I am seeing a trend upwards in fuel in the oil with the 2 x recent oil...

I am visiting relatives in Columbus, Ohio – 100 or more miles from the closest Lucid service center. One of the pins in my charge port is bent and I can’t get the charging cable to connect. I’ve tried a number of local service centers and EV dealers. Suggestions? Thank you!

I have a stage 2 C450, and there is inconsistent boost loss after a hard pull. I noticed that my driver-side (left) wastegate gets stuck open, which causes a boost loss. I can only get 180 hp max...

I wanted to share a slightly hair-raising experience I had this morning in my 2024 Lucid Air Touring and see if anyone else has run into this or has thoughts on how the vehicle software handles it. I was driving down the road at around 20 mph this morning, got a little distracted, and went to turn on the wipers. In the moment of distraction, I hit the wrong button and accidentally engaged Park while the car was still moving. To my surprise, the car actually let it happen. While it didn't... Read more

I think that I am guilty of this. Maybe more so as I get older... I prefer classic rock, classic cars and traditional values. The stuff from years ago just feels right to me. As I get older and things that I had around me fade away, I find myself looking back at 10-20-30 years ago and find that those memories bring more laughs and satisfaction than many of the things we see and do today. Nostalgia is a powerful thing. I don't like new pickup trucks. I look at the stuff up into the 90s... Read more

Hi fellow brickers, A while ago I asked here whether it would be OK to preserve parts of the galleries of Thomas Fritz, a.k.a. stealthfti . The answer was that nobody would object, so I went ahead. His work meant a great deal to me personally. His galleries are where my hobby as a Volvo wrench-turner really started. I've also been worried that PBase might shut down one day, or that the account could disappear when nobody is paying for it anymore. With this archive, his Volvo knowledge... Read more

and drinking beer. Saw my new neighbor up on a tall (14'?) step ladder standing on the very top of it trying to hang a swing in a tree. Told him he could borrow my 28' extension ladder and he declined....at first. About 10 minutes later he came asking for it lol. Other than that, I washed my 'new' 96 Dakota and have been cleaning up the shop.....and drinking beer

I hope to get my 55 in a bit better shape over the summer. Figure I'll document my glacial progress here. I've owned it for 20 years, bought it off a dealer lot here in Boise in 1999. Here's a pic from 15 years ago or so. I should add, it's a 10/72, 1973 with a 4 spd swapped in, original F, electronic ignition, later axles (disc. front) and mini truck power steering.

Just picked up this 72 pig a few weeks ago here in NorCal. Super excited! Planning on addressing just the mechanicals, get it running and leave the body as is(minimal rust). 82k original miles. Plenty of items to replace however. Many of the clips and hose clamp disinigrate as I try to remove them. Got it running after replacng the fuel lines/hand cranking it/marvels mystery oil etc. and letting the fuel pump , pump out the old gas. Used a gas can w fresh gas/new filter to get it running...

G'day all! After stalking around the threads I've decided to start this thread. I've been hooked on FJ40 / FJ55s since being invited to the Australian FJ40s meet in Victoria's "High Country" names O.C.K.A (Old Cruisers Kicking Arse) - Check the socials for details. I picked up this all original - factory rusted - FJ55 a few months ago sitting on a farm after the owner couldn't figure out some issue. After a firm handshake it was at my property to start work on. The second photo is... Read more
