My $5.00 trunk carpet "kit" (or something close to that)

H.G.P. · 03-30-2005, 04:35 PM

Since I rebuild the motor, I no longer needed my 3ft. X 5ft. Vehicle and Utility Mat (Dynomat product), I purchased at Autozone back when.

So I found another use, I've been needing. Weighs hardly nothing:

Not bad...going by the pic, I'd say it's pretty close to stock carpeting color!

The "Utility Mat" is a different material, I beleive the product your referring to is "rubber" like with a peal and stick and is also a different weight.

And how is it running??? Hope no leaks and finally the idle is where it should be?

Idle was perfect today. Ran strong. No leaks, (with the exception of 2-3 nuts on lower valve covers. Not concerned as new lower valve cover gaskets that will be replaced soon next oil change)

Also another description is it's running "clean", no smoking, no smoking at start up.

One other note, I'm actually going through adjustment of learning to not see leaks! Before the rebuild, besides all the grease, there was always considerable leaking both sitting and after driving.

Now none! It's a real physical energy saver, and I'm really having fun, cleaning the car up, weather is improving finally. Timing for all this has also worked out well. (Too look under and see everything dry is almost a dream into 4 years of the opposite)
