yeah im pretty happy about it ... hopefully its just the sending unit and not the actual engine suffering

one more reason to spend another chunk of money on my car

 

Fifty bones for a new gauge isn't as bad as 1500 on an engine biyach!!!!

 

I'm leaving today to Nashville and the weather isn't so nice.. So, I'll be in my daily.

I'll see you David @ your house.

DJ, I've talked to my engine builder and he's supposed to pick up the T2. He didn't have the hood with him. Also, next time I'll be in Nashville after today would be in thanksgiving.

 

Well the only place I would trust would be David Garfinkle's or Charles Gilbert.
What is left and what swap are you doing?

I am in Spring Hill and doing a S4 TII swap into a S4 GXL as we speak.

Chad

 

DJ, if your not going to the Oct. 30th get together, maybe I can grab the hood and bring it to you.

 

ill run it all by the prego and see if i can get some allowance to take care of that. . . what all is left to do? let me know. . . and ill let you know if i can get the time to take care of it.

That'll work. ^ I am 200% positive that I have to work that Sunday so I know I can't go. If you're goin down to B'ham that would be perfect! Although I think it would be cooler if Phil bungie corded it to the roof of his FD and drove up with it

 

Is it going to be worth going today? What's the weather looking like?

 

Hey girl, sorry no one replied. The show was canceled but there were a few of us over at garfinkle's house.


Hey Gar,
Do you think they will extend it one week since this one was rained out?

 

The real hot cars came to my house .All gens were there plus Honda , Toyota, Ford . Fire ,I will will check on a rain date ,But I do not think they will do that. So how is Rotarhead 1,No contact in a while, She found out I was a dirty old man . Tell her to say hello to her mother and father for me .

 

Hey dork, I can read what your writing to Chad and respond on my own. I've been busy with work and college. That and I've had some stuff going on that involves my new truck making me tight on cash (long story) and I had no transportation last night anyway. I'll tell my mom and dad you said hi. I hope that they will have a rain date, I want to come out and see everybody again. Oh well, this winter we are going to work on my 7 so next summer I'll join you guys in the cruises.

 

OK get your 7 running and come see us ,If you need help let us know . The old dork .

 

Will do.

Oh, and I hope you know the dork thing was a joke.

 

Honda was mine... hehe..

David, Can you give me a call when you get this? I have a question to ask of you.

PHIL

 

$50 to the first person that is willing to help me figure out what is wrong with my car. compression is great by the way. will go LS1 if I cant figure it out.

 

The man you need to talk to is David Garfinkle. Call him and see if you can figure it out over the phone. If not he might need the car to figure it out.
Chad

 

whats the problem?

 

Phil between you and gar see if ya'll can figure out his problem. I would really hate to see an FD go V-8, well any rx7 but an FD. Ouch!

 

what would cause the engine to stumble when shut off? This is with a turbo timer. here is the catch, it was perfect before I put the new engine in and I didnt touch the turbo timer. I think it has something to do with that. the wiring or something. its fine once its warmed up. it also smokes, but only in the middle of warm up. its weird. I will start it and no smoke for a couple minutes...then once I get out and get on it a little bit, it will stop smoking. if I let it idle for a little while it will start to smoke a little and my wideband reads about a point richer than normal. example: park car after a run and idle A/F is 12.0 - 12.3 then after a couple minutes it still holds its idle fine but the wideband shows 11 or so when it starts to smoke a little. the smoke is NOT sweet smelling and I never have to add coolant. I run B9EGV plugs in all 4. I really need to take a video and post it.

 

Why are you running those plugs?

 

heard good things about them. I will probably try switching back to the BUR9EQP's

 

I run the B10EGV, but you're not boosting too much are you? I'd check the plugs and try going back to the BUR9's and see if that helps. What else has been changed resently? Sounds like it might be just in the map.

 

Im running 14-15 psi. I recently made a visit to Garfinkles house for some map adjustments. but it started doing this a little before I went up there so I dont think that is the cause of it. it may have compounded the problem, but it didnt start it. Im thinking that maybe one of my coils is on its way out and isnt doing a very good job burning all the fuel...but Im just speculating. we need a help Sean with his POS 7 meet.

 

Are you running an ignition amp?

 

negative.
