i saw that guy
its a nikafu styles update.
confirmed: it was an old guy in a boxster s. i was exiting the fred meyer p lot with a shiny new digital tire gauge (dont get one) when i saw him sitting with the engine on. i looked at him and he followed me out. damn geezer. i let him wale past me and made sure to go the opposite direction. almost took a yellow wrx but he backed off. i think it was auto cuz his takeoff sucked. sometimes i smell fuel. the not burned kind, while driving. perhaps my injectors are leaky explaining my poor mileage. weird scraping sound in reverse. only happened once. sounding like i was pushing a trash can. tranny was low on fluid. i filled it up, it started acting funny. sluggish. 'sucking' noise of air entering where it shouldnt getting a little louder. still hasnt snowed here. hanging around 38 degrees.

Smelling gas is not a good thing. Check for leaks in the engine area.
The rubbing noise may be the heat shield above the drive shaft. It can be pushed out of the way easily. AFT dip stick is hard to read. Where do you live?

Wow, that is very unusual I guess. I don't like that as I like to ski and that makes it look bad for the season. If does not snow there how will snow here? It must be cold somewhere else.
