That is a nice trailer. What are you carrying in it?

So I met up with Tom and Michelle last night in PA. Since it was just me, they were nice enough to let me crash in their TT so I didn't have to haul mine up there as well. I woke early in the morning and decided to go down to the Sheetz for coffee since noone else was up yet. I guess they got worried because when I got back, this was waiting on the counter.

Thanks. For the moment, it is gonna be used for moving. We have a few PCS moves with the military coming up over the next few years. Other than that, cars, motorcycles, construction materials, hay, whatever else I am feeling at the time. :-X04

Cleaned the MAF sensor. I recently switched from K&N to paper, and I thought it was ok, but it started dropping out of OD for no reason, and since that's the last thing I did, I decided to give it a whirl. I have some MAF cleaner on order, but didn't realize that I had some QD Electronic Cleaner, so I'm just waiting for it to dry and then I'll take a test spin, and see if it is still there. As long as I drove in 3rd gear no problems.

Finally had time to take advantage of the new garage/shop to do a turtle wax black 2step process to the Excursion. Second time I have used it on the Excursion and have been impressed with it both times. So nice to once again have a garage big enough for the Ex! (The car has a bent rim waiting for a replacement)

You are correct

I met up with Toreador Diesel (aka Razzi) and a few other forum members last night and loaded my SCT X4 canned tune and talked shop a little. It made a huge difference in performance and I can only imagine how sweet it will run when I get my custom tunes!

Update on the MAF Sensor cleaning. Just a short drive, but uphill in OD to see how it would do, and everything was fine. No more dropping in and out of OD and lurching/jerking....

Now if you tell me that that doesn't affect it, ok, but empirically, as of now, it did the trick.

Funny thing is..... no need for your name on it, he nailed it ! If I saw that jug in someone's recycle bin, I'd say 'Holy crap, Twitch is missing and being exploited!'

:D

That is one clean garage! Is it tall enough for a lift?
