Some questions regarding the car and stuff. (searched)

First off, I just got my reman started today, so the car has no miles on the motor yet.

1.) Can I lean out my idle mixture with my safc2 any? It smells really really rich, and I just wanna know if i can correct anything ( stock 550cc injectors, stock fuel pump, stock everything) Also if I can correct it, what revs would I do that at?

2.) My slave cylinder is being gay. First of all it doesnt have a bleeder cap on it, and I don't understand how to get it to extend out and connect to the clutch fork. Also when I try to pump the clutch, where the rubber boot meets the slave clinder, it leaks lots. (Do I need a new one?)

3.) My reman just started today, and I was under the impression that it wouldn't idle at all. Yet it holds a 750 idle dead on. But it shakes a bit int he engine bay. will this quit as the enging breaks in more?

Thank you so much guys

Ryan

1) yes,, but be careful
2) Its not supposed to leak at the boot, you need a new/used one.
3) at least it idles?

if the engine shakes alot bump the idle up to about 850. then drive it for a while like that for about 500km's then try bumping her back down.
Congrats. Is this the same person that PM'd me a while back for help, do you live in Moose Jaw?

I think atkins runs ~$30 for a new slave when they run their ebay specials. You could probably call them up and get the same deal though if their having a good day. Dan's a good guy.

~$45 off their website store: http://www.atkinsrotary.com/store/cu...ubstring=slave


EDIT: its not from atkins, but seems to be agood deal:
