give it 2 or 3 days of running it a little every day
everytime I cleaned and re-oiled the air filters on my Pettit intake the ECU always took a couple of days to readjust
and with our wacky weather of late I'm sure it's confused
also running rich at least won't hurt nothin'

French press makes even Starbucks coffee manageable for me... Which is an impressive feat. I've always been a tad bit afraid of trying their Sumatra or some of their other darker blends 'pressed. But I guess I'll have to try it at some point...

Or maybe not now that the weather is warming up...

well since the Miata is up a folks place steal we're gonna start with that
lesson one will be about where the brakes are
then how to use a clutch, and then the gas pedal
lesson two will be how to combine all these things when stopped on a hillside, and later a mountainside road
I won't make him drive the parkway the first day though - as I want to survive the experience as well

LOL!!!!! I fully understand you, niburu....I tried to teach my sister to drive when she was 15....And for some reason she did everything well until it came time to shift....And she would jerk the wheel to the left(for some unknown reason) then she had to look down to see what gear to go into, go into that gear, and then finally straighten the car up and go on until the next gear. We got to third gear and I just had to stop. Every time she would shift, there would be a tree staring at me with my name on it. So, I just told her to stick with the automatics for a while......Barely survived that driving lesson........

So I'm swapping out the dash this week and maybe pulling the engine out this weekend. Anyone up for helping me, lol?

So far got most of the dash parts out, I just ran out of time today. I'm hoping to get the new dash in tomorrow. =]
