Idle was off and threw my for a loop till late last night when i remembered the thermowax was sticking before. So i fixed it temporarily lol i know lots of temporary fixes but hey cant afford everything at once. After all that and some my idle is back close enough for me to leave it be for now. And the tps is set now only by volts but the car ran great. I still do get a little hang up on my idle, sometimes it just sits a little high at idle than it should. If i let the clutch out a little it comes right down to 750-800. Might still have a vac leak somewhere idk. So after all this I have to buy springs and get them my shocks n engine mount put on. Then recheck and fix tranny mount if Its not good. I think the bushing is gone on it. Might just put a hockey puck in there lol. So yeah thats my life lol

Damn! A bajillion small problems which, combined, equal a legit headache!!

If you need a hoist or a stand (if you plan on pulling the motor/trans for the tranny mount) let me know, as I've got both at mine in Odenton.

Both allsports and summit point kart are theoretically relocating... so hopefully we'll get some closer karting action soon enough.

Lots of MD guys, nobody interested in a meet, per the lack of interest in my other post. So very disappointed.

These are just my thoughts. The lack of interest is due to nothing actually being set. Also, I didn't realize you posted a new thread. I rarely come to these threads and only read the updates in my email.

With that said, I am going to set a meet, like the old ones:

Sunday, August 30, 2015. 12:00pm.
Fuddruckers
6486 Dobbin Rd
Columbia, MD 21045
(
)

I'll be there sometime around 11am, and hang in the back parking lot. Plan on eating around noon. If no one else shows up, oh well. This will be posted in your other thread as well:

Well my 85 is in th middle of a Frankenstein 13b swap and the gf's 79 limited doesn't have functional rear calipers. They're ordered and I'm picking up some useable ones earlier Sunday morning in Frederick, hopefully either the new ones come in or I get back in time to put the calipers on and head up. If nothing else ill drive to daily up so I can at least meet some MD rx7 folk.
