​​​​​Not too sure what's the issue. My car turns on and it runs. But it's running terrible. When I step into it. The car holds back. I can't step into it because it just doesn't take off. I have to basically ease into it. I've tried a few things but no luck. So honestly I had it sitting because I've been working another projects. But yes I'm still looking for a mechanic that can take a look at it to help me resolve the issue.

Thanks for reaching out.

i do work and am located between tampa and orlando, just takes me a little longer to get stuff done now compared to 20 years ago.

most likely an issue with the sequentials and boost cut, pretty typical if you're running stock twins. or a staging issue with the injectors, one or both of your secondaries may be sticking closed(it happens with cars that sit for long periods).

i've even seen dumber things like plug wires crossed causing similar problems. if it's running terrible all the time it could just be a mix of bad old stale fuel though, stuff your nose in your filler neck and see if it smells like 20 year old lawnmower forgotten in a shed.

Big rotary show in Haines City? i've lived here for 3 years and never happened across it, I live on the west side of town though, in the rural area.

Found the info, 11-7 at the CDL training facility off 17, will have to stop by even though I know no one around here.

Last year they had over 100 cars and there was 2 other cars shows at the same time in Kissimmee. I know people from Tampa, Jacksonville and Miami are coming. Even a few from Georgia

We're all hanging out, make sure to bring a large hat and a chair. It's gonna be a nice sunny day. I'm trying my best to be there by 12:00

If you see my car look for me, this was taken last year by someone else.
