We usualy stay about 1hour after then we cruz somewhere.

 

Oops... forgot we were having a meet today.......

 

i'm here, and lee's here. hope some more people show soon.

 

Eh, I'm a bit late but I'll swing by as soon as I get the Cheeto warmed up.

 

If any of you other late people (which seems like almost everyone) wanna meet up around 5:45 that's when I should be there... Circuit City in West Knoxville.

 

Well that was a fun meet, even if it was a little late/cold/windy/short. Glad you could make it out again Dan, haven't seen you since the last Dragon run. Is Lee on the forum?

 

either way....im still leaking fuel a few hours later....................gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay . next time. dammit.

 

Where's your fuel leaking from? We'll probably have our next meet in two weeks, so maybe you'll have it patched up before then. I hope it warms up by then

 

mas puto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

anyone know about the xs power turbo im assuming they are not good but just wondering if they are any better than stock

 

Yea I hear alot of people saying bad things about them , but Im gonna use the one I have for now till I get my hks downpipe . If I was you I would go with greddy or hks setups .

 

SOOOO.... Joey... See this, PM me.. I want a price of your 1st gen.
you said something bout selling it....making room blah blah blah.. never enough room



yo ****** loco estupendo

 

man you guys are funny...i should stop by here a little more often....
Lizard- yea my fuel leak is coming from somewhere underneath my carb? I'm running a Mikuni 44 right now, I just took it off and took it apart...yesterday couldnt find anything abnormal, so put it all back together and back on, but it still leaks....? wtf. it seems to only be when i either a.) take corners or b.) when i put the engine under load- itll idle fine all day long without any sort of leak but as soon as i start driving it i smell fuel and pull over and theres a *puddle* on top of my motor....

 

no **** about it getting warmer. i can see my breath.......inside my own damn house. i hate being a poor *** college kid.

 

Perhaps the bowls are overflowing in it? Are you running a pressure regulator? It's never good to have puddles of fuel on top of a toasty motor... I wouldn't drive that thing.

 

Yea are friend brillo lost a nice carbon fiber hood cause of a gas leak .

 

believe you me: I'm not. I don't think the bowls are overflowing in it, I'm running a holley fuel pressure regulator, but it is used....don't know if that would compromise it's ability to work...the old fp gauge on it says i'm running at 3psi....I'll double check the float levels in it today, but I'm stumped- it just started doing this about a week ago....?

I've got a weber that I need to get jetted right and just need to run that one...f this mikuni.

 

Yea sounds like the nice 20 degree weather ******* with the carb .My holley does the same thing when its cold like this .

 

wretched. so what youre saying is i cant drive the seven when its this cold outside? that would blow. I'm sure the cold affects it some, but I don't think it would make it spontaneously leak fuel...i would have to think it would be something mechanical with the carb, not just the weather.....

 

plus under hood temperatures are easily twice as hot now as the outside temperature....under hood its gotta be close to 100 easily even with all the outside air flowing underneath...

 

Yep sometime some carbs just mess with you in the cold . Thats why I'm glad I got my T2 .Oh yea and my first gen is currently motorless to so I cant drive it anyway .

 

You got to think the gaskets shrink and expand when its cold and hot .

 

good point....schiester. fuel injectionnnn where'd you goooo....i miss you soooo....... dude wanna trade? ha

 

Try some RTV on those gaskets. It still shouldn't be dumping out fuel in the cold. 3 PSI is definitely within normal levels so it's probably not that. I'm thinking that it's overflowing at higher throttle and sloshing out when you turn maybe. Sure the float levels are right? Can't tell you much more since I'm no carb expert.

 

ha great minds think alike...thats actually what i just got back from doing...bought some rtv, and will be pulling the carb again probably tomorrow- the suns starting to sink, and the cars in the shadows...its cold enough in here with two space heaters going, so ill do it tomorrow pm after classes, and then let it sit the night and dry, then see what its lookin like after i get it back on and take it for a drive- ill also double check float levels...by no means am i a carb expert but i learn fast and have been messing around for a little while with it now...we'll see.
