Really weird delivery

I don't even know what happened, but me an the other half decide to go dashing. I tell them "Orders have been going pretty quick so I wouldn" *Ding ding, ding ding* "See look at that, 8 dollar delivery for Wingstop"

So we pick up the order and I notice that it needs a Pin, so I think to myself "Alright Make sure I ask for that", rush over to the customer and meet them at the door, get the Pin and put it in, and instead of completing the dash on my end (It completed the Order on her end), it sends me to ANOTHER address, so I pop in the car and try contacting doordash support, they ask me if I have the right address, and I say "Yes, but I don't have a delivery, I already completed it but it's asking me to go to another address", while I'm doing all this, the previous customer calls me back and goes "Hey, this isn't my order, and I haven't dug into it, and I know you guys can get into trouble if you don't deliver it to the right person, so you wanna pick it up" and I'm like "Fuck, Um Yes"

So I pick up the order, and start BOOKING it the 10 minutes it's gonna take to get it to this new address, which mind you, starts in the 3000's, get to the Dot that's on the map and all the houses in the area start in the 1000's.

Here I am, freaking out a little cause I don't think I'll be able to complete the order, and call the customer "Ummmm, Hiiiiii, this is your doordash, I know the dash says to leave at the door, But I'm standing outside my car on corner X and X, annnnnd I don't see any houses that start in the 30's, C...could you please just turn on your porch light or flicker it so I know where to set it"

Customer: "Oh Yeah.....Umm, I ordered it for the wrong state" Me: "Is there any way you can cancel please" Customer: "No, It won't let me". Ended up having to contact Support stating that I couldn't complete the order because it was ordered for the wrong state.

TL:DR: DD completed customers order with Pin, but sent me to new address for delivery with no pickup.

Blown Back

Gear heads, old and new, we all suffer from the aches and pains from twisting ourselves to get that bolt or nut loose. So I beg mercy of the Mechanic Gods and ask, does anybody have any remedies for a blown out back?

Learn from my Mistakes (The Dreaded engine knock sound on Cylinder 1)

Ladies and gentlemen, we have here a 2013 1.8L 6 Speed Standard, and I want to tell ya'll how I managed to basically eliminate the engine knock sound that happens as the 1.8L's get up in mileage.

So I basically bought the car knowing it had issues, when I got it (Thom as we call him), He had a bit of an overheat issue, turned out to be a busted fan, and we swapped that out. After driving him around for a bit I noticed that he would randomly die only when the clutch was pressed in. So after investigating, I noticed a higher pitched clicking coming from the engine in the back, turned out the be the Purge Valve after feeling the clicking in it, we replaced that and he hasn't stalled out since.

Now back to the dreaded knocking, after doing A LITERAL FUCK TON of research, I had come to the conclusion that it was either the Cam Sprockets, or I needed to fix the fuel/air mix with a Intake Manifold Gasket, and a Throttle Body Gasket.

My boss (The one I'm working for to own the car) Thought that it was Cam Sprockets too and decided to order them. 12 hours later, 2 timing belts, and a TBT (timing belt tensioner), they were put on (Please don't follow my mistakes. lock your Cam Rods, and not set your sprockets at TDC).

I have discovered, that on cold starts after doing the Cam Sprockets, there is still a slight knock sound, but after revving the engine for 15-20 seconds, or just putting it in gear and shifting a few gears, will cause the noise go to away. Which leads me to believe that the engine isn't getting enough oil on startup, and once oil pressure rises in the engine the VVT's and Cam Sprockets have enough pressure to operate correctly.
