    Default well finished my other valve cover gasket

    managed to lose my snap on 1/4 inch drive ratchet and shallow 10mm socket. my car ate my 10mm deep socket the last time i worked on it. needless to say my car seems to start up easier and idle better. I will need to change my spark plug boots in the future because some are developing hairline cracks.

    welll thats one more project done on my 540i. By the end of the week ill have my style 19s on wrapped in some general exclaim UHP rubber. Ill clean it up and take some pics. Its been a while since i posted pics of my ride.

    Cool deal. I've had a few of my cars eat some tools. You know they have passed when you hear a clunk when you are driving.

    I lost a 10mm impact socket in the 300E and it dropped out when I replaced the front suspension two years later!
