Improvisation. Adaptation.

Can't you reset the speed/mpg on the trip computer?

Yes I figured out how to reset the mileage and avg speed trackers through the options on the dash display. I have not had a chance to drive it since so we'll see how it goes.

Spring maintenance items:
* I installed a new set of AC Delco plugs.
* Swapped out the snow tires for the Firewhawk Indy 500, recalibrated the TPMS sensors to detect them.
* Also with the stutter resolved I decided it was time to reinstall the K&N CAI.

Up next is the rear toe in. This car seemed kinda sketchy on snow covered surfaces, with the back moving way more than I thought it should. I attributed this to incorrect toe in. I had made it pretty good when fixing crash repair. Current measurements show it toed out about 1/4 which didn't seem like much, however it was almost at the end of the adjustment and I could only improve it a little. I checked to make sure the passenger side was straight (it was). A new lower control arm was like $30 so its on the way.

I drove it with the K&N installed - it sounds so much better.
