  • Not too shabby for a car I bought off the side of the road! Made some major improvements in the cosmetic department and also tidied up a few more mechanical issues. My new daily driver! For now.....

  • @jigsaw3334
    @jigsaw3334 Před rokem +11

    Chris, awesome job on the Caddi. You can also take just a regular beard trimmer with no guard and it’ll take care of the peeling on those seats. Also, you can find some regular old spray paint for plastics that match your color of seats, dip a corner of a rag into acetone and spray that same spot with the paint and touch up those stains. There’s a video on CZcams of a guy who does this with his vehicles and it looks stellar considering cost and effort that goes into it. Looking forward to your future videos!

    I was throwing a MAF code on my V1 a few weeks ago, and after cleaning the MAF, checking all the clamps, it was still coming back. I read online that sometimes the intake mani bolts just need to be tightened a 1/2 turn. It worked for me, been 3-4 weeks since. Might be worth checking out if it comes back on you.
