If you're using a CRT monitor, maybe you can't tell what I meant. But if you're using a LCD monitor and be observative enough, you may be able to know what I meant.

Jason, that's because it looks like the passenger side's wiper arm is bent.....almost half of the wiper blade is not attached to the windshield.

I didn't notice that on the LCD and my CRT is better than any flat panel I've seen.

...just wasn't observant enough

Looks like it got hung up on the vent.

My small LCD is still better, brighter and sharper than my 19" CRT.


I set mine to winter mode during the winter so that the wipers won't be as easy to get stucked...I set them in the other way during the summer because I think it'd help protect the blades last longer, if they're aligned properly...

ok sorry for the hijack but: when my wipers are in summer mode they stick at the top of their arc. is this supposed to happen? In winter mode they move smoothly throughout their entire cycle, so I just keep them in winter the whole time. /hijack.

Yes, you'll see the car soon enough. Marty is working on getting himself one as we speak.

My car is doing OK. It really needs the engine transplant done, a new front and rear diff, and a halfshaft in the front. I've also got a new tranny leak that needs dealt with immediately. My woman will get one someday, But not till I make alot more money.

Sorry to read about your car...mine is having oil issues. Some times it leeks more then other's and I am not sure what the deal is. The oil leaks onto the exhaust and well the smell is so embarrassing. Anthony believes there is two lines that need replaced but he has to take out the radiator to do so. The person who put the radiator in put the bolts in wrong, as he mentions. The doors are off my black car and I still have yet taken the nice driver seat out and installed it in my baby. Today was the first time I had seen my gas gage light...I guess I need to not only buy more oil but really needs some gas...

The car is done and another 4.44 is born. It runs and drives great and really has some good get up for having 17" heavy ass wheels on it. We also got the power steering fixed, put on new front end links and a ball joint, and put new brakes on it. When we went to fire it up it wouldn't start and it turned out to be due to the starter button the doofus that had it before us put in it. It was wired wrong and the computer didn't seem to know we were cranking the car. Once I hooked it up the right way for the key to start it, It started just fine. The kid we got this car from is a complete idiot and a liar. We also came to find out that one rim is severely bent and another one was driven on a flat and ruined the tire on it. I should have known as soon as I saw a POS eagle talon on jackstands in his driveway that this car was probally screwed up. All is fixed now though and it's running good, So I'm not gonna complain too much for $900, although it should have been more like $500.
