  1. There's a quarter car wash in Westminster that I use occasionally 13095 Springdale St. It's $10 and you give the money to the owner. He's usually walking around there during the day. If not it's on the honor system and the sign asks you to leave the $ under the office door. Dump drain is on the end of the bay wall closest to the street. Has a fresh water hose spigot too.

  2. @Realbadlarry They "can't" by law and would not tell me no matter how charming I got. The girl at AAA said they couldn't tell me who the lien holder was by law either. So I started guessing and asked for a wink when I guessed right. I at least got American Honda Finance from that visit haha

     

    How does having a shop file a lien work?

     

    That's an idea! @Poule43

     

  3. So I purchased a 250EX a year ago for my kid at a decent price because it needed a new front spindle, ball joints, and rotor. Drove to the family's house and they told me they lost the pink so I purchased it with only a bill of sale. I did run the vin prior to see if it was stolen and it wasn't so I felt alright about it. Now trying to register it I come to find out that the couple I bought it from never registered it. The owner prior to them (original I think) apparently still owes Honda Finance $ so there's a lien on it, but they did send in a release of liability to the DMV. I reached out to who I bought it from and no response. I even sent a certified letter (AAA recommendation) and still nothing.  A call to Honda Finance said I need to contact the registered owner to fix the problem but they can't tell me who it is. I also said I'd pay the owed balance to release the lien, which I'm assuming is low since it's a 2005, but they won't accept it unless I know the exact amount owed. They wouldn't tell me if it was sent to collections either. So I got a little hot and even said "well then come repo it! I gave you my name and you know I have the vehicle" They responded with the $ is too low, we don't care"

    Any advice on what I could do next would be greatly appreciated! I can DM or text the vin and or green sticker if someone could use it to help out?  Thanks

  4. I've run two tanks full of R99 in my LBZ duramax back to back. It's super quiet and smoother running but mileage is way down for me, roughly 3-4 mpg, and I didn't tow on either tank. Next tank full will be back to #2. Problem is my local Chevron stopped selling #2 and switched to the R99. Time to find another gas station. I have run one tank full of the HPR diesel and didn't notice anything good or bad but the station is a little out of my way.

  5. Going A-arm soon so I'm going to sell the complete front suspension off my baja bug. 6" wider beam with 10" towers, adjusters and sway-away leafs. Fox 2.0x10 smooth body shocks with reservoirs just rebuilt and valving is great. Tweeds 3" raised combo spindles, Tweeds 2-1/2" arms, CNC 2 piston disk brakes, stainless braided brake lines, almost new latest rage 5/8 heim steering rack, HD tierods with 5/8 heims, and limit straps. It's still on the car and I wont take it off until I have a buyer. 

    Not in a rush to sell and should be ready to take it off in a week or two. I do not want to part it out. Car is in Costa Mesa. Message me if interested.
