I brought my bike out early, I couldnt hold back the temptation. I was going to drive it from my buddies place but the engine wouldnt fire up. So we chucked it on his truck and drove it down. I changed the tune but still wouldnt fire up. Changed the spark plugs and it fired up. Things were burnt! I guess that tune was way to rich for those plugs. After i got it to fire up i took it easy until the bike got going for abit and the tires warmed up. Then i just hit the throttle, got to 200kmh in a very short time. Bike is running alot better then it did when i put it away...

cobalt 2.2 s/c question

Alright question about supercharging my 2.2. kit is already on the car but my question is do i need a bypass valve? I have the one that comes attached to the supercharger but it isnt hooked to anything. I know there arent many out there so help would be great.

Called my insurance yesterday, car will be on the road tomorrow

Also, scheduled an oil change for tomorrow at the dealership. Will be picking up a new fuel filter, new plugs along with a new cabin air filter too. Can't wait!

I knew this nice weather would get people to take out their rides from "hibernation" earlier

You know it man... it's about a month earlier than I've normally taken out my car in years past.
