Message

    hey guys , im kinda bumming right now. went to safety check my carr today but tryed signals and guess what , not a f*!!!<> signal flashing on right side . Left working , but flashing slowly . When i turn lights on front , side corner lights dont light up but all ohers do.  Could this be due to sprayed paint in connections???? fuses all look good. Also 1 headlight doesnt work , i figure its no good.  
    Also hooked up temp gauge and ran car for about 20 minutes and temp was around 190 . Ill check timing , see if i put thermo upside down (brand new) . Any other ideas???? Lots of smoke coming out of crankase filter.
   Im really fealing humbled right now ,  thought i was all good to go and now these new learning experieces. Not to mention Hainz dream engines , man Hainz , Maika"i nui loa

	I just put in a 192 deg. thermostat last night in my Z. That's normal temp. Now my car actually warms up all the way on the drive to work and stays at proper temp with the heater full blast! Did an oil/filter change finally.
