hey Dave the templates are gettin delivered on thursday, could i drop them off with the housings and irons to get them lapped and bead sanded? If so let me know how much it is total. Thanks
Well That would work, however I am on vacation this entire week!!
So I am not there till next Monday, We are heading to Road Atlanta tomorrow if I can find some damn gas to put in the car..
Josh,.. Your hood has 1 pint of Mazda Brilliant Black applied to it and is curing as we speak.
Whatever you had on that hood sanded like absolute shitballs
Maybe a ton of wax? Did what I could for a overnight stay and spray
I'll send you some pics in a few when the shop clears out some more.

Hey Dave if you really need some gas you can come siphon some form my van. I'm changing the timing belt now so it's going nowhere. I'm close to 485 and 85 south. PM me if your interested and I'll give you contact info.

Well, Cory dropped his SA off here yesterday. I pulled his carb to find the front bowl running empty. Time for a rebuild. But I did find out what was causing the massive power loss. Got that taken care of. Put one af my old carbs on his car and had it running awsome. So good, one of the neighbors down the street had to come by and tell us to slow it down.........
The car ran good for a couple of hours. Then everything went to ****. The car hates me. It will not run worth a crap now. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day...

Sounds like dirt getting in there from somewhere. Old hoses maybe? Put one of thiose glass replacable filters inline right before the carb and see if crap shows up in it.
I found gas down on Gilead Rd. yesterday just across the street from the hospital. Its so hidden that folks from the highway never see it and so it usually has gas. Oh yeah but they only had 87 octane which was fine for my truck, the 7 and the lawnmower

We had a midnight delivery here in Denver at 1 count it 1!! station.. I went at about 5 this morning and waited about 10 minutes. then swiped the card. 25 dollar limit sign was poted...but, it never said how "many" 25 dollar limit pumps you could do....I have a full tank of 87 in the FD. Now i just need to find some octane booster to be a little safe(r)
Gas light on the protege, if there was a light it would be on in the RX. Gonna head up to mooresville exit today to pick up some 93 for the miata while I am at it
Thank goodness I found a place with gas. It pays to know people. A friend owns a gas station in downtown matthews, just got a tanker in today, won't pump until 6:30am tomorrow morning. Anyone interested?



Robbie, I think I'll pass on another first gen for now. Maybe something a litttle newer. Like maybe 10 years newer
