Re: 97 TSi AWD :: MitsuStyle Rookie :: Up in Duluth

Went to take the brakes apart because I'm pretty sure that my driver's side caliper is froze up. Of course the freaking bolts are seized to shit. Such a pain in the ass. Rest of the components look pretty good.

Also spent a little time with the interior. Glued the spare tire cover brakets back together with a little Gorilla Epoxy. Replace all the missing clips and tabs in the car. And did a makeshift fix for the drivers door handle. Turned out pretty nice. Piece by little piece I plan to get this thing as original as possible. I need to get about 24-30k out of it.

I also think I am getting an inordinate amount of fuel dump. Looks like I am at about 10-12 mpg. I have a few holes in the exhaust and have a feeling that the O2 sensors are telling the ECU to throw more fuel than it needs. Not sure. Either that or moybe I am getting a ton of blow by... Or... or... or...
