DELI is delicious!

Post by jmtoriel »

Hey Delicians,

I've been meaning to post for a while here and follow this site religiously. Awesome community to be a part of and I'm lovin' the 1992 Super Exceed from Terra2Imports) (purchased Sept. 08!

I recently returned from a roadtrip (2400km) through BC -- Vancouver to Smithers and back with my wife and 2 month old and really enjoyed the Delica experience on the road in all conditions. The tires and 4WD were amazing on the snow and the Delica performed wonderfully on the biodiesel I purchased from the Vancouver Biodiesel Coop pump at 360 Industrial Ave (Recycling Alternative) using a 50/50 blend on the way up.

There's 3 items I need to get fixed that someone could hopefully help me with:
1) Where can I get the side door metal step re-welded or replaced? Two of the 3 fixtures were rusted and have separated at the joints.
2) Replacing the interior back lights that never worked
3) Repairing a mudflap that snapped as the weight of the step broke the front left wheel mud flap

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

J-M Toriel :M

I would also like to get my hands on a bumper sticker with the maple leaf and Mitsubishi logo.

In regards to the poll at the top of this thread - what is meant by bio diesel. We regularly blend WVO into the diesel, does that count as bio diesel?

I just gave a left front mudflap to Mardy (trade), I'm sure he could sell it cheap to you... Give him a call!
