I'll be doing that, mustang's running to lean and I'm not about to blow it up.

Lean? I thought it was running super rich... whahappen?

Since I smelt gas I figured it was rich, I put the wideband on it yesterday and it's like 19:1...I'm getting a snap on scope tomorrow and try and track down the problem but there's no way I can figure out the problem and get it fixed then prep the car for the track before friday.

i've shot the guys an e-mail. if they desperately need me, i'll show up, but my dad has an operation on monday so spending some time with him couldn't hurt.

Its really crappy to bail @ the last minute... if you're not driving and your students are signed off you can usually get someone to look after your students for the last few sessions and bail out by 2-3pm sunday.
- Maengelito - 05-15-2007
mikey, i've got two miatas with roll bars. if you need one, we can work something out.
- Mike - 05-15-2007
i realize it's crappy... hopefully i can work things out tomorrow.
- Mike - 05-15-2007
f it... i'm back in car or not. so tomorrow will just be about how much money i end up losing on this whole ordeal.

i'm almost ready
i want to raise the car so my oil pan doesn't bust in the toilet bowl, but one of my coilover perches is frozen.
brake fluid flushed - thanks Kaan!
brake pads inserted
oil changed
i just need to pack it up. I've been watching video on google and i'm excited. Perhaps i can tow the motorcycle and overlap events on summit main with nesba....:twisted:

I've had this problem. Take a mallet and with the spring unloaded (as much as you can) tap around the bottom of the lower pearch UP, start off with light taps and go all the way around, then try to turn, keep hitting harder and harder until it frees up.
- getfast - 05-16-2007
The mallet method definitely works. Especially after you've sprayed half a can of WD-40 on the frozen perch and waited the amount of time it takes to drink one beer. :wink:

If you can figure out how to get it from Manassas you could borrow ours.
- Mike - 05-16-2007
Would prefer to use one that has already seen that track as it's more disposable, but thanks
RJ?
- white_2kgt - 05-16-2007
I'd let you borrow mine, but it's broke.

Last time I tried to use mine I got sound but no picture. You're welcome to give it a shot though.
- Apoc - 05-16-2007
You can use mine but it's D8, not MiniDV.
It's got a 10 hour battery so won't have to worry about charging.
