I just wanna live in your engine bay!! :Drool:

Thanks its been garaged kept broken and running since new. I don't daily drive as I use another car for work so it's pretty much a weekend warrior. Still has a faint new car smell too hard to believe but being closed up for almost 3 years will do that.

Definitely one of the cleanest IX's around. A good carwash and interior/exterior detailing and it should look almost showroom clean again.

radiator had a small puncture going to take it to the radiator shop to get it fixed
Minor setback, shouldn't be a big deal! Same thing happened to my IX during a clutch job.

She runs!!! After pumping 3 quarts of Walmart's Supertech 10W-30 conventional oil onto the garage floor all seems well with no leaks :) Idle needs some adjustment since it won't stay alive with some throttle, but a few more minor things to be wrapped up, some tune adjustments so it idles, and then we'll be getting some break-in miles done next Saturday.

They pretty much where, probably the best loaded fries I've ever eaten. Fresh-cut, none of that frozen and battered nonsense.
