I have used long handle scrub brushes with all kinds of chemicals I've had on hand. I have used degreaser, carb cleaner, oven cleaner and the clean the skinny tubes to the gas tank, I took a speedometer cable, but it on one end and made my own "snake". I gues I should patent the idea....

Hey Ren and Lovintha7, you guys goin' out tonight? I'm probably gonna meetup with some folks at Starbucks on Jefferson(not sure which one), then head out to Kroger's aroun 11:30ish. Give me a call, but I'll be at my in-laws and cell reception sucks there.....

BTW, Reneage, i am not going to get by tonite. I just got home from over your way. I think Dale bought the NA S5. Decent car. Now both of us have white second gen NA's that are not running.

Yoshi, Mike, and whoever else.
Those of you that liked the Zoom, Zoom event and wanted to try it some more, Here are the next few local upcomming autocross events:
Jan. 22, 2006 Fentress Winter 4 #2
Feb. 19, 2006 Fentress Winter 4 #3
Mar. 19,2006 Fentress Winter 4 #4
Fentress Airfield in in Chesapeake, VA. I can give you directions. It is only two turns off of I-64. Plenty of time to get ready if you are interested. I will probably be at all of these. Fentress is an event that is about equal speed to what we did at the Zoom Zoom live event. It is usually a great place to start autocrossing. Guarantee you will have a good time.

Speaking of phooking things up, I'm a fraid I left my BAE 12A turbo and exhaust manifold up in the now sealed crawl space above the garage at my old house that I sold in July 04'
...but don't dispair I should have a Cartech drawthru kit somewhere up in here. I'll shoot some pics soon and post for all to see some day.
