I just want my car to work so I can drive it. I just bought some new summer tires and I've barely been able to use them yet.

Getting some graphics put on. Front of car will look like pic related

My friend and I did three complete suspensions swaps last Saturday. Two Miatas and my WRX.

Yesterday I put a stage 2 openecu tune on my newish 2003 WRX, hooked up my intercooler sprayer to the passenger side windshield washer, and bled the brake system.

Last summer I did my first headgasket swap on an 85 AW11. Currently in the middle of a 1.6l NA Miata headgasket swap. Going to torque it down tomorrow.

Done tons of alternator and serpentine belts. Timing belts aren't too bad either. Honestly headgaskets are pretty damn easy. I also only use jackstands. I also have a very small ratchet/socket and spanner set, along with a harbor freight torque wrench and breaker bar. I've had zero training and learned everything on my own because my dad is clueless about cars and thought me nothing.

I washed mine and took it to a charity event.

Well I spent the last two weeks repairing or replacing every major mechanical system in my Mustang, so this weekend I just cleaned it up and install a piece of rear window trim.

Next week is front calipers and I treated myself to a subtle chin spoiler

I also changed the spark plugs in my car. Does anyone have an idea what could cause one of the plugs to look so different from the others? Three of them were covered in oil but one had only sort of "burnt" oil on it.

Vicinity of oil leak

Potentially bad sparkplug gaskets.

2nd from left looks normal i suppose.

These are perfectly normal 80k mi. plugs.

-New radiator fan motor
-New muffler
-general cleaning

I'm like a battered wife, my car just hurts me and I keep coming back for more. I'm probably getting close to the point where parts prices are becoming even with how much I bought the car.

If your car has a catalytic converter, it may have been damaged by the misfiring.

Also daily reminder to check the sparkplugs tighteness after a couple hundred miles; mine had a loose one.
