Nice cruise over to Huntersville for lunch, then back home for a wash and quick detail.

What Did You Do To Your HHR Today

I cleaned the K&N air filter, and replaced the plugs.
At 110,+++ miles the plugs looked like they only needed cleaning. This is the first time they have been out.
I think I'll toss them anyway.
Now to see if the MPG go's up fron avr. of 27.

Got a few things off my To-do list yesterday:

corrected the low tire pressures in all the tires (thank God for my portable air compressor, MPG should go back up now, yay!).

added LED license plate lights; now they're a nice bright blue.

changed out the blown Silverstar foglight and went back to OEM fogs for now. Super easy since the splitter's off (hurray for easy work lol).

adjusted the exhaust hanger over the rear axle so the annoying rattle can disappear!

AND... Swapped the OEM door locks for stubbies, love the EASY change! GDZHHR my elbow thanks you!

what I did today.

modified my CGS intake to mount an Edelbrock 10 inch dia. air cleaner with an K &N 2inch filter a little cutting and welding, the air cleaner will be here on Wednesday I think it will be better than with filter wedged next to the engine, got the idea from Tracy at the Toms Farm 2g2 on Nov. 6th.
