Yea, but it's not like you drive to a public parking lot, open the windows, and just take a nap and let your dog attack people.

True, and this is also the reason I dont take my cat with me in the car just in case I take a nap... She attacks people lol. I cant afford to get sued.

At least your cat isn't a huge golden retriever with a cute face but a bad temper.

Yea, Brian is a sucker for old guys in straw hats.

No problem Steve, glad I could help. Like I said, we'll get it figured out. At least for now you can drive it and move it around and have it old an idle. It would be great if you could drop it off up here in Maquoqeta and give me some time to fiddle with it some more and put the correct gaskets on it. I'm sure that with the right gaskets, a nice de-carb session, some idle screw and TPS adjustments, and checking over everything we could have it running perfectly.

At least the one rapping black dude made our night.

That'll be fun as hell. Even though most of the time was spend dicking with the car it went cool. Brian's old neighbor was funny as hell dude. And he was actually pretty helpful working on the car.

If you want to bring it up Friday and drop it off that's fine. I'll be taking the Mustang back to my girlfriend's place probably sometime soon so it's not at the house anymore. At least with the RX-7 here I can take it to work and have all the tools I'd need. I'll talk to ya on the phone about it more.

Steve (driftfc87) and his brother Brian (blwnrotor88?) both live in Bettendorf. Also, Jesse lives in Davenport I believe, I live in Maquoketa, and there's a few others in the Quad City area. As far as an FD goes that'd be new to me since I've only worked on FC's so far.

Thats because you moved to Fairfield lol. Hmm, fun things in/around Fairfield... Youre too young to drink, so I guess thats out of the question. Yep, Thats all I got. I am in Washington, about 35 minutes north of you. I'll go ahead and say it before blmcquig does: Im kind of a ********.
