repaired the 'bullseye' on the windshield. Been about 2 years and it hasn't gotten any bigger, or smaller. I used a rain-x brand repair kit, it worked pretty good. Not completely gone and you can still see some small cracks, but better than it was. Didn't want to replace the whole glass because I figured I would get it replaced and it would get another break again. that's how it always goes.

Replaced all 4 O2 sensors because I was dealing with an intermittent P1158 code that progressed to 4 codes - P0138, P1138, P1193, and P1158. In addition, I received a mailer from the state of CO that my emissions test was due.
After the sensors from Lucky8 were installed, the codes have not reappeared and old Indy seems to run much more smoothly. All of the sensors broke loose so easily that I busted a knuckle when removing the first post-cat sensor. The 2 post cast sensors were replaced in about 20 minutes. The pre-cat driver's side took around 45 minutes due to the upper connector located behind the coil pack being so hard to access. The pre-cat passenger side took the longest. I finally was able to access it from underneath reaching on top of the transmission housing. Releasing the connector was a pain, but reconnecting was even worse!
I'm heading in early next week for the emissions test. Wish me luck!
I also had the windshield replaced recently at Safelite. The original windshield was so pitted and sandblasted I was having trouble with visibility, especially in direct sunlight. I ordered a new windshield molding kit from RockAuto and provided the kit to Safelite. The new windshield has a slight tint at the top which helps with glare immensely.

LR lengthened the pre-cat o2 sensor wiring on the passenger side on D2's. I've watched the O2 replacement video on AB's site for D2's many times and wished that the wiring on my D1 matched that. On a D1 both O2 pre-cat wires from the loom are super short. There is absolutely no play or wiggle room there. Someone should create an extension for those.
