      @dogman9558 3 роки тому +1

      Make sure you run synthetic oil and 91 octane always. Never cheap out on parts. Regularly change oil 3-5k miles at most. Make sure engine is heated up to operating temp before you get on it. Pretty reliable car though if you treat it right. I’ve had mine for 5 years and the original engine started burning oil and then it started knocking, so make sure you do all these things to avoid that major problem.

      It’s not that It failed on me, the tape I used starts sliding around when it gets hot since the glue gets hot so now when it’s “locked” sometimes it doesn’t lock right. Id say instead of using tape to make the cable thicker, I’d use something like a piece of rubber hose so you’re not adhesive dependent!
