  15. Not to get off on a tangent but I wouldn't be so confident in the absolute statement like that based on your personal experiences. Your part of the country is credited with having such a wild/uncontrollable creature that it even has its own moniker known as "the Florida man", who whom simply in somebody elses convertible car is the least of the extremes that he's capable of. Florida Man - Wikipedia With that said I've personally seen at least one drunk? girl do that to my car outside of a bar.
  16. 1) Typically not. If I do its brief and I put it back on after whoever was interested looks in 2) I typically hold it or tell somebody to hold it. I don't really leave it unattended. No good way to secure it from people or accidental damage 3) Anything for kids. Life is too short. I can be a core memory or a good photo for the future for them to look back on a "weird race car". I just let them take it. Its usually very few requests here and there. Maybe less then 10 total after many years.
  17. Warning *deep cut* One mention at 1:15:20 or so from Jonny Lieberman (high praise from a seasoned veteran auto journalist) "That's getting to like Lotus 7 levels of perfect"
  18. Not running per se. Started on stock ECU to partition out the issue. Plus this was a loong time ago. Pretty sure it doesn't know crank position and it needs that entered in somewhere.
  19. Yeah. I think it was over winter. I send the whole thing out. Was expecting to do the $100 rebuild but it turned out to be not so. They were very nice to deal with though. New manifold didn't have vacuum ports at all, but I specifically asked them to redrill them in case I ever wanted my IAC to work (so far I haven't even tried and kept them plugged). They said nobody really uses IAC on ITBs After dealing with my car I can't tell if Tom would be delighted or frightened to deal with another "sister configuration" to what mine was. To properly tune a car he wants a few things. He wants adjustible cam gears in place, wideband installed, datalogging strongly preferred and at least laptop properly working with tuning software for ECU. My car did not have a knock sensor but those help. Just looked it up: Rebuild was $1100.... dont recall if that includes shipping back.
  20. Between the software and the throttle bodies take pictures of EVERYTHING and screen shots of "point zero" if you need to go back to it. Count the threads on the linkages if you have to. You want to have a "known good" to come back to. I know you said you already adjusted one, its still fine take measurements and counts to go back to this stage if needed. At least you know at this stage only one is "compromised". You're not screwed but this will be painful. I never messed around with this too much alone and let the tuner at the time try to set everything to a "good zero" position before continuing with tuning. Smart but scared the hell out of me and was lots of adjusting back and forth. You can use feeler gauges of even a piece of folder paper to measure the gap quickly as you're doing adjustments. You stick them into the butterfly to see if they all allow the same amount in/past them in the "closed" position. For what it's worth, fair warning I sent mine out from a running car to Borla/TWM to make sure they are fine and aren't a variable in my troubleshooting. They sell a "tune up" for $100. When they got mine they told me almost everything on mine was "beyond repair" and was needed to be replaced and so they did. I got back essentially a new unit by the time they were done. Also at some point in time might be worth taking them off regardless to make sure you dont have same issues as me. My runners developed a collapse in the thin metal by the gasket and were a problem on a few cylinders. Hopefully you dont have this problem but its good to double check. Also the mysterious flash out still happens on my car all the time.

  22. Well you're not an SV if thats what you're asking. In regards to the front being wide track or not we'd need an image of the top or your front shock but according to old images you're uploaded from the little bit I can see I believe you're narrow front end
  23. I got little vacuum caps at a local part store or Harbor Freight if you need a quick fix To make them all match pretty well you'll have to go through the linkages sand it's a huge PITA. If I recall you have to start on Cyl1 (closest to front) and go back from there. You'll need the vacuum measuring tool I posted either here or elsewhere. Don't have an answer whether its proper to do it cold or warm.
  24. Not a repost. I've never seen it before. Very cool Thank you
