Replaced the Neutral Safety Switch, had broken it when I tried to take it off to clean. Those threads are delicate. Oil Change. Drove to the Jersey Shore. 195 Miles using 9.123 Gallons @ 21 MPG Not too bad.

Installed new temp sensor and messed with the battery terminals. They get loose and wont let it start sometimes. And the negative one gets really corroded, any suggestions, i already sprayed some non corrosion battery stuff on it.

I've seen some really bad batteries that the negative terminal was just covered in an inch of green corrosion. Not sure exactly what causes it. Maybe loose terminals. Hopefully someone can chime in cause I would like to know
