I got in touch with Joel. He knows its cancelled.

My car is up on a hoist, parts everywhere, nice gouge in one of my wheels, which is face down on the concrete. I'm about to go all ghetto... my next update will be from jail.

I don't know that, Jon called me and asked me to text Joel to make sure he didn't start driving 2 hrs to get up there if it is cancelled.

Thanks for the heads up.

Joel.
Dude, I even took it one step further and called Adrian, to call you incase you had either just left, or were still going to leave...

Either way, like I've said before, I'm happy to help!

It is their CLAIM that Davis did irreparable damage to my flywheel when they fixed my trans about 20,000 km ago. Given the number of things I've had replaced, it's more likely that my car was assembled at Lordstown using salvage parts that were dumped in a filthy lake, as opposed to new parts.

Just checked: 05-10 2.2's and 2.4's all use the same clutch and flywheel, but there's isn't a single one in Canada apparently, and shipping from the US is what will take till late next week. None of this makes any sense whatsoever.

The fact that I can put 87 in the rental Impala almost offsets the increased fuel cost, but not quite.

Back on topic, I'd assume that the 2.4 uses the same flywheel as the 2.2? There's isn't a single one in Canada apparently, and shipping from the US is what will take till next week.

if you guys want to do something tonight, I'm game...

Most people who have been both here and the FB group are expecting the meet at TH's to be tomorrow...

Ok... I'm pulling my contacts from earlier today...

I could suggest that we meet in Riverbend and either go waste time at a choke-and-puke, or we could go waste some servers time at the BP's...

It's kind of on the side of a spoke. Really not a huge thing, couldn't have been from the way the wheel was sitting on the ground. But I certainly didn't do that.

All I wanna know is... for a car of which they sold about 200,000 per year (plus Pursuits and G5's) why are there no flywheels in the entire country?

probably because;

less parts inventory = less overhead = less financial burden for GM-Canada
