Fixed the LAST remaining current issue with my car. Rough idle/sporadic power loss. Reason? Loose engine harness grounds on the upper intake manifold. How that happened? No idea. Glad it was an easy 5 minute fix. ---

Firestone in Scotia. The alignment wasnt bad before but I figured Id get it done anyway since I dont want to fuck up $550 worth of tires if it was out. They showed me a printout. I just wanted it done right so Ive got no idea if they do custom settings. The alignment only took about 15 minutes or less. Just a simple toe adjustment. My dad is Jim and he works at Price Chopper. ---
