The Sentimental Mechanic: March 2012
http://www.sentimentalmechanic.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
A Miata nerd and Escort fanatic waxes obsessive over car repair, autocross, LeMons racing, and perpetual battles with rust. Saturday, March 17, 2012. Miata CAS doesnt like water. Don't hose off under the hood of your Miata if your cam angle sensor has a bad seal. That shit gets wet and your car becomes disabled because of a No G Signal fault code. I stuck it in the oven for a little while at a low temperature and was all better. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 1991 Subaru Justy 4WD. 2011 Toyota Yaris (Zoe's).

The Sentimental Mechanic: Mechanic Decor: Wheels and Tires as End Tables
http://www.sentimentalmechanic.com/2013/05/mechanic-decor-wheels-and-tires-as-end.html
A Miata nerd and Escort fanatic waxes obsessive over car repair, autocross, LeMons racing, and perpetual battles with rust. Sunday, May 12, 2013. Mechanic Decor: Wheels and Tires as End Tables. So I looked on Craigslist for glass discs to use as a tabletop. I found someone selling them for $5 apiece. I bought two, stacked the tires two high, and made night stands for our bedroom. My fiancee approves. If you put a set of string lights inside the tires, it'll glow from the inside. May 12, 2013 at 3:55 PM.

The Sentimental Mechanic: September 2011
http://www.sentimentalmechanic.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
A Miata nerd and Escort fanatic waxes obsessive over car repair, autocross, LeMons racing, and perpetual battles with rust. Saturday, September 24, 2011. Racing Beat knockoff header. I've learned something from my foray into the bottom-of-the-barrel cheap parts: There are two levels of shitty. Low price, good build quality, but materials that aren't the most durable perhaps because of lower quality. Lowest price, terrible build quality, horrendous materials. My recent reviews of Raceland's header. At the...

The Sentimental Mechanic: My Little White Truck
http://www.sentimentalmechanic.com/2013/03/my-little-white-truck.html
A Miata nerd and Escort fanatic waxes obsessive over car repair, autocross, LeMons racing, and perpetual battles with rust. Thursday, March 28, 2013. My Little White Truck. That driver is the pilot from an airplane I used to have, but upgraded with a helmet and air tank from one of my later space sets after the pilot hat got lost—probably in a heat vent somewhere. I keep this guy in my office. It's my favorite thing ever. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 1991 Subaru Justy 4WD. 2011 Toyota Yaris (Zoe's).

The Sentimental Mechanic: October 2011
http://www.sentimentalmechanic.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
A Miata nerd and Escort fanatic waxes obsessive over car repair, autocross, LeMons racing, and perpetual battles with rust. Monday, October 31, 2011. Why the Fiat 500 will do well (a long ramble). A hip lady-friend of mine recently blogged about the Fiat 500. I have never really been a car person. My dad picked out both of the cars I’ve driven, and they’ve been good cars in the sense that they get me from point A to point B without any scarring or wreckage. Where did it come from? All this for a kind of ...

The Sentimental Mechanic: Cleaning and Re-Greasing a Mid-Century GE Fan
http://www.sentimentalmechanic.com/2013/11/cleaning-and-re-greasing-mid-century-ge.html
A Miata nerd and Escort fanatic waxes obsessive over car repair, autocross, LeMons racing, and perpetual battles with rust. Thursday, November 28, 2013. Cleaning and Re-Greasing a Mid-Century GE Fan. Note the almost complete absence of plastic components. The coils are wrapped in what looks like wax paper. The strain relief on the cord is just simple string. Here you can also see the wear on that shaft from the lack of lubricant in the sleeve bearing. There it is. Nothing but black, hardened grease.

A Miata nerd and Escort fanatic waxes obsessive over car repair, autocross, LeMons racing, and perpetual battles with rust. Thursday, November 28, 2013. Making a Lamp from a Crankshaft. After thoroughly overhauling my WRX's. Engine, I wanted to do something with my bent Subaru crankshaft. I've always wanted to make a table using an engine block, a la Top Gear. I have yet to get my hands on a block I can use for this, but my end tables made from tires. I'm instead just leaving it bare, hoping that the oil...

A Miata nerd and Escort fanatic waxes obsessive over car repair, autocross, LeMons racing, and perpetual battles with rust. Thursday, January 30, 2014. Malaise Era Awful: 1978 Oldsmobile Starfire SX. This thing is so hideous, yet so lovingly restored. I feel bad hating it because it just begs to be hated, but I can't help myself. I must give it what it wants. Here are more photos to barf to. The car has been sold.). January 31, 2014 at 5:46 PM. I wonder how it drives. Im digging the shift lever. 283 (fri...
