Today I finally researched emissions laws in Colorado =]
Turns out I live in a county that does not require emmissions, so I went and got my registration today.
Got a couple questions though, I'm sure you guys will be able to answer them =].

How involved is a carb rebuild? Is it something I can do over 2 days? 4? Are there any special tools I need to buy/make?
Has anyone used the carb rebuild kit from Mazdatrix? Does it come with good instructions and does the kit come with everything you need? When I'm done will I have to take the carb in to get in rejetted or anything?
Is there anything I else I should do while I'm rebuilding the carb?
Is there a nice link too information about rebuilding the carb?

How hard is it too remove all the emmision control stuff?
Is it possible too put it back (if I were too sell the car or move somehwere with emissions laws?)
Are there any drawbacks, or compensations I have too make when I remove the emission stuff?
Is there anything else I should do while I'm removing all the emmission stuff?
Is there a nice link to more information on removing the emissions stuff?

Basically I'm hoping that after rebuilding the carb and removing the emissions stuff I will be better able to diagnose any problems (not holding an idle, etc.) and hopefully fix them and get my car running like a top. Is this a fair assumption?

I'm in a pretty good mood today especially since school is now over for me, and I don't have too buy a new cat.

 

well a stock carb has a alttude compansater(sp) on it so it will help out on the leaning of the carb. it still wont have NEAR the power it has at lower alt. but should run fine... what area of co. are you in?
