In So Cal the ethanol pumps actually have stickers on them that tell you what the minimum ethanol content is. There's a station within a mile from me but the sticker on their pumps state minimum 55% so you never know what you're going to get. There's a Propel station about 5 miles away and the sticker says minimum 72%. I usually see 82 to 83% on my gauge from Propel.

Nice, AZ and NV you never know so I just pay extra to get e85 or more. The exception is when I do go to Cali I will bring a few vp cans and buy at a station that will have close to e85.

Well this week, I get to play chicken with my newly wired up dash. I now have a percentage for fuel left instead of dots, so i'm wondering how low i let it go before i put 93 in. I may just be paranoid and fill up my VP tank with 93 and drive around until the car dies lol.

Edit: 2 dots is 1/8 ish so ill try filling up at 10%

Seat belt wasn't retracting so dealer replaced both buckle and tension, citing 'internal malfunction on both.'

Installed 34row oil cooler………the temp drop is silly….. i almost don’t believe science

I’ve been having the same issue lately. Was this covered under warranty?

Yes. Nissan has a separate warranty for seatbelts. 10 years, no mileage concern.

Sweet. Thanks for the information.

Washed the Mountain Lion guts off the front of MZ DAIZY. Working on the dashcam video...

Short story is I hit it on the rebound and the clear wrap did it’s job.

Mine is way out of warranty then lol, of course the only problem with mine is it needs a deeper cleaning than I can give it to get that slipperiness of the seatbelt surface back…. Pretty sure the lady who owned the car before me wore a ton of makeup cause I know for sure it was ingrained in the steering wheel so just logical to conclude it’s on the seatbelt as well…that and just years of dirt and grime
