I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

removing black soot from rear bumper?

Post by kotomile » November 06, 2007

just like it says in the title, I need to remove the black soot from my rear bumper. A good wash gets rid of the majority of the soot but there's a trace left behind, possibly entangled with some wax.

Oh, and I know it's running rich :) Faulty coolant temp sensor > me. It's one of the things I'm going to fix when I pull my engine next week.
