Water Pump and Timing Replacement

Code P2728 is a transmission code that likely came up because of the car going into limp mode. Sounds like you have a dirty or bad MAF (mass airflow sensor) which can make the car run badly. Parts stores sell a spray cleaner for the MAF

Water Pump and Timing Replacement

I uhhhh messed up. Removed the top of the air filter case and this nipple broke. I don’t know what this pipe is called but if anyone knows the name, and where I can buy a new one, that would be awesome. Thanks in advance for your help.

One of their companies, Brazilian retail chain Americanas, is neck deep into a $8 billion balance sheet embellishment scandal discovered this year.

That would have been right up my alley before I retired. I specialized in forensic accounting, even went to the local FBI office for some training in tracking illicit transactions. Catching tax cheats was a big part of my job with the state tax commission. Corporation's are some of the biggest cheaters even though their making millions or billions in profits. Pure greed. Our biggest case was Boise Cascade, a large multinational corporation headquartered in Boise that underreported their earnings over a period of a few years to the tune of $17.5 million and we nailed them to the wall. The CFO was charged criminally but got off with a slap on the wrist and the corporation had to pay a $100,000 fine which I'm sure for them was a joke. If you have enough money and lawyers the justice system is pretty meaningless. I'm sure the heads of Americanas and 3G Capital will probably never see the inside of a courtroom and even if they do they'll get off with a small fine and nobody goes to jail. Completely unfair system that lets corporations get away with murder.
