Lounge / Maybe Somebody here can Help? (Chevrolet issues)
While I'm waiting for my Thunderbird to get finished up at the shop, I've been working on the '89 C-1500 (350 cu in/700R4) I've had since '06.

Seems as though since January it's been running like garbage, at times.

So, after a new gas tank, new intake manifold gasket, EGR valve, new MAP sensor, new Throttle Positioning Sensor, new timing chain and gears, new distributor cap & rotor, new plugs and wires, new coil pack, new computer, and new fuel pressure regulator, the pick up still has the same hesitation from 1/2-throttle to 3/4-throttle it's had for a while, now...

There's no vacuum leaks on the engine and the compression is good on the 4 cylinders I've checked.

The sumbitch runs like a spotted ape aside of the hesitation, so it's got me confused as all get out.

I know it's hard to diagnose a vehicle behind a computer screen, but might anybody have anything to offer? I'm thinking new fuel pump. As far as I know it's got a new fuel filter, but I'll probably go ahead and replace that as well, if I replace the pump.

Lounge / Send a Soldier to The Rock Round Two
Last year, Rockingham Speedway's "Send a Soldier to The Rock" Program was a big success. ~3,000 troops from Ft Bragg and Camp Lejeune were able to attend the NASCAR Camping World Truck race at the historic speedway because fans purchased tickets to be distributed to the bases.

This year, Andy Hillenburg and his crew at Rockingham have made it easier to send a soldier to the truck race on April 14th, 2013.

For $20, you can buy a ticket to the North Carolina Education Lottery 200 Presented by Cheerwine for a soldier stationed at one of the area's bases.

Just call (910)205-8800 or visit http://rockinghamspeedway.com/tickets.html ...if you call, let the ladies know you're purchasing a ticket (or tickets) for the guys to go.

I'd appreciate it, guys, and I know those stationed out that way would appreciate it, too.

Lounge / My Cougar is rollin', tailpipe draggin'
Heat don't work an' my girl keeps naggin'
Eight-six Cougar, cat keeps rollin'
One hubcap 'cause three got stolen
Bumper shook loose, chrome keeps sin'
Mis-matched tires, and my white walls flakin'
Hit mickey-d's, Eric Dess starts to bug
He ate a quarter-pounder, threw the pickles on my rug
Runnin', movin' tags expired
Girlies tryin' to dis 'n say my car looks tired
Hit my brakes, out slid skittles
Tinted back window with a bubble in the middle
Who's car is it? Posse won't say
We all play it off when you look our way
Rollin' four deep, tires smoke up the block
Gotta roll this bucket, 'cause my 'bird is in the shop

My Cougar - my Cougar

Two door nightmare, trunk lock' stuck
Big dice on the mirror, grill like a truck
Lifters tickin', accelerator's stickin'
Somethin' on my left front wheel keeps clickin'
Picked up the girlies, now we're eight deep

Cars barely movin', but now we got heat
Made a left turn as I watched in fright
My ex-girlfriend shot out my headlight
She was standin', in the road, so I smashed her toes
Mashed my pedal, boom, down she goes
Law ain't lyin', long hairs flyin'
We flipped the skeez off, dumb girl starts cryin'
Baby called the cops, now I'm gettin' nervous
The cops see a beeper and the suckers might serve us
Hit a side street and what did we find?
Some young punk, droppin' me a flip off sign
Put the deuce in reverse, and started to curse
Another sucker on the south side about to get hurt
Homey got scared, so I got on
Yeah my group got paid, but my groups still strong
Posse moved north, headin for the CD
Ridin' real fast so the cops don't see me
Mis-matched tires got my boys uptight
Two Vogues on the left, Uniroyal on the right
Cougar bouncin', runnin' unleaded
This is what I sport when you call me big-headed
I pot-hole crusher, red light rusher
Musher of a brother 'cause I'm plowin' over suckers

In a Cougar

It's a three-ton monster, econo-box stomper
c00ch your girly, if you don't I'll romp 'er
Dinosaur rush, lookin' like Shaft
Some get bold, but some get smashed
Cops say the car smokes, but I won't listen
It's a eight-six cat, so the hell with emissions
Rollin' in Tacoma, I could get burned
Betta make a you-turn
Spotted this freak with immense posterior
Tryin' to roll smooth through the Hilltop area
Brother start lettin' off, kickin' that racket
Thinkin' I'm a rock star, slingin' them packets
I ain't wit' dat, so I smooth eject
Hit I-5 with the dope cassette
Playin' that tough crew hardcore dope
The tape deck broke
 what's next, brothers in Goretex
Tryin' to find a spot where we could hunt for shag
Found a little club called the N-C-O
Military, competition. You know.
I ain't really fazed, 'cause I pop much game
Rolled up tough, 'cause I got much fame
"How ya doin' baby, my name is Scott D"
"Scott D got a Thunderbird boy, quit smokin' that rock"
Ooooh, I got dissed. But it ain't no thing
Runnin' that game with the home made slang
Baby got ished, Bremelo gip.
Keep laughin' at the car and you might get clipped

By a Cougar

Runnin' outta gas, stuck in traffic
Far left lane, throwin' up much static
Input, output, carburetor fulla soot
"Whatcha want me to do Scott?"
Push freak, push
Sputter, sputter rollin' over gutters
Cars dip low with hard core brothers
Tank on E, pulled into Arco
Cops on tip for Colombian cargo
We fit a stereotype, that's what he said
Big long car, four big black heads
Cops keep jockin', grabbin' like 'gators
'Bout stereotypes, I'm lookin' nuthin' like Noriega
Cop took my wallet, looked at my license
His partner said ", they all look like Tyson"
Yes, I'm legit, so they gotta let me go
This bucket ain't rollin' in snow

It's my Cougar
