Alright, so yesterday I changed my fuel filter for the first time. 2005 with 20K miles and mostly stop and go traffic since I live only 2 miles from work.

First minute out on the road she just felt like a rocket! Does a new fuel filter really help that much or am I just crazy? Maybe it's like when I was 7 and got new shoes and claimed they made me run faster.

Either way...I got to brag that I can change my own fuel filter! :D

Cars are always quicker when the engine is cool. That's why drag racers cool their **** down between runs. It's also why your car will run stronger in cool dry weather.....like up here in Canada.

Suckers!! :lol

I'm talking about engine temps. And not when it's completely cold. It runs better and stronger when it's not completely hot, which is why drag racers cool **** down between passes. :)

I know... but since my transmission needs to warm up... it eventually equals to the car running better while its hot since I can't really push it if its cold :p

Yeah, thought it might be in my head a lil bit...but yesterday was the first time I've gotten to jack up my car and use my new floor jack and jack stands :woot Now it's time to get cracking on painting calipers...maybe those will make me go faster too....
