those people need to watch pulp fiction
but seriously, messing with anyone's anything is low. I don't understand things people do that gain them absolutely nothing. Even selfish or greedy people are smarter than these idiots, at least they are trying to gain something for themselves. what could these a-holes gain from this? ...unless they own a repair shop

It's unfortunate people that have nothing to lose will screw your nice stuff cause they don't have it and don't care if they get caught. They have nothing to lose and nothing to fear. When thier caught they just get thier hands slapped in court. I had a friend get hit in his car by a person with no insurance no license and the car was not even his. The Judge looked at my friend and said " the guy has no job and a family to fessd and you can't squeeze water from a rock" and let the guy go cause putting him in jail would be useless. That's Cali laws for ya

So after 8 days i finally got my truck back. They had to replace the whole fuel system, including the fuel pump which was $300 alone. The total ended up being $1,100 but shes running like new.
Today i took it to the muffler shop to get my magnaflow y pipe and at3030 muffler welded on. I just dumped it after the muffler and it sounds nice, its LOUD around 1500 rpm's but its a nice deep tone.
Ill be savin up for a chip now and in the mean time ill be doing some debadging. Also, she's due for an oil change soon, im gonna run a can of seafoam through before the oil change to make sure the cylinders and pistons are all cleaned up after the bleach incident and ill be changing plugs and wires while im under the hood too.
Ill keep you guys posted on how everything turns out and ill get some pics and a vid of the new exhaust as soon as i can.
EDIT: got a question about the seafoam, where do i put it in order to clean out the cylinders and pistons? Will pouring down the throttle body work or is there a vacuum line i use? thanks for any help guys

Ah, yes, bleach in the tank. Recently had some ***** yank out my stem caps, rip off my plates, and key my car because I parked under a covered spot for about an hour. I didn't realize it was reserved. Had to get it towed to the dealership and cost me $200 in damages. Unfortunately for Billy Badass and his supa cool car, I tracked who "owns" the spot, and also where they live. I've decided to accept his hospitality and make him my long-term pet. Gonna' **** with his head for a month or two while his memory of what he did in a moment of pointless anger fades, then I'm going to give him the beautiful privilege of needing a new Tacoma. Googled bleach in gas tank and got this thread. Signed up just for it. What goes around, comes back around, right? Well... I'm coming back around. And this punk is going to have a GORGEOUS heavily oxidized tank and engine block. Hey, mess with my car like you are god on cocaine and I'll show you trouble. Should have bleached my tank, punk, because now karma is coming to say hello and you're gonna' need a HELL of a lot more than new tires. There is a reason your mother tells you to mind your business because you never know who you're messing with. A simple "do not park in my spot again or I will have you towed" note would have sufficed, but he was just TOO badass for that, and now he is going to learn the lesson his mother tried to teach him a long time ago. So again: be careful who you guys screw with, it may be someone like me who is going to ruin your car from the inside out since you stepped over the line. He's lucky only his car is going to die because I decided to leave my past behind me on this one.

So you're a tough guy. I don't know about the other folks here, but I'm super impressed.

Also, $200 to repair keyed paint and new valve stems? That's pretty cheap.

Tough guy? Never claimed to be. Paint is not fixed. And read up, you stupid loser. No. Valve stems are not expensive, they are relatively cheap, but thanks for showing your exquisite mechanical knowledge. Just don't **** with strangers. Also, if you add salt, it makes a nice syrupy mixture. But I would also have you know you scare the cyber **** outta' me. Shaking in my cyber boots. And **** you for condoning vandalizing someones car because you think you are entitled since it's "YOUR" spot. Hopefully it's YOUR Tacoma I'm about to ruin for setting me back, chavo duro (and I do hope you understand that judging by your name). Tough cyber basement hombre.

They say "hurt people hurt people", but they also warn "karma's a bitch"
An eye for an eye is not justice, it's a call to an all out war.
Things will only get worse.
Be a man and go talk to the punk and demand payment, sneaking around vandalizing is kids play.
