Confirmed. Fresh belt nixed the squeal.

I find a little fresh belt makes 'em squeal.

I lol'd.

[giant_mtb]

Nope. I lied. Still squeals.

Apply belt dressing or just jack off onto your belt to make it stick to the pulleys.

[Rupert]

Probably the wiggly pulleys.

Nope. I lied. Still squeals.

I coulda told you that.

Now that a little time has past, how do you like the fender modifications you did a while back?

I still like it.

[Eye of the Tiger]

I still like it. I'm thinking of doing it to the Element's vast satin black panels.

Going from ugly black texture to ugly black texture? Please no. Undercoating belongs under a car.

Why not vinyl wrap it gold?

I could get color matched bed liner. Blue.

Terrible. No.

[Eye of the Tiger]

Terrible. No.

I know. I would hate that.

Also really pleased with this stuff so far...http://www.autogeek.net/blackfire-tire-seal-trim-restore.html

I Herculined my plastic truck fenders and someone brought up fading issues, so I bought that. $50 is a lot for 16oz of product, but a little goes a long way and it is very effective so far. I used it on the hercufenders and all the other trim (side mirror, plastic bed rail covers, rear bumper cover, etc) which was a little faded and caked from the PO's buff job.  Turned out really, really nice. Better than any other trim restore/seal product I've used. I applied it about two weeks ago and it's still super fresh. It's rainy season, so it's been rained on and such for hours and the water is beading awesome and the color is staying nice and clean. Just washed truck and it didn't affect it at all, either.

I'm really impressed with this stuff...the trim still looks just as good.  Water still beads.  One application.  I'll probably reapply to Hercufenders soon just because they get beat on with road spray a lot more.  But this stuff's good...I've washed the truck multiple times, it's been rained on a lot, etc. etc.

Here's today:

Element needs that schit

Idler pulley is on the way. Got $3.99 one-day shipping, so it'll apparently be here Wednesday.  Hopefully it's just the one and I've diagnosed the proper one. There are two upper idlers that are different from the two lower ones (including the one on the tensioner itself).  Pretty sure it's the upper-left.

Ok, but when do the truck nuts get installed?

Is this true horrible tell Microsoft to stop this country beloved animals

Well, at least they capitalize correctly.

[CaminoRacer]

lulz, two dogs = 1 controller, 2 controllers somehow = 5 dogs. And Microsoft Gamecube using a PS2 controller.

I dunno, the ones that came with it. Might want new ones by next winter.
