A good friend of mine is a sales rep for Asacol, which IIRC is for crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. I hope she feels better

My cousin has Crohn's as well. After about a year or so of suffering trying to figure out what the problem was and relapses, he got it under control. Meds and diet and good doctors.

Good luck.

Thanks for the concern guys. From the last time I posted my wife is doing great. She is on meds and they are doing there job. She is just about back to normal. I love having my wife back.

Now about my car. Things not so well. The motor has been pulled and sent back to Steve kan to get rebuilt. What happened was water was poured in to figure out where all the coolant lines went. The pushed outside in -10 degree weather. He sent one of the shop hands out to get the car. Instead of pushing the car in he tried to start it. So the water pump cracked and other things went wrong. To sum it up the motor is junk and I'm getting a rebuild. All under the cost of the shop. I don't blame ron. He has treated me very well.

By the way it takes sometime to view this forum and type on my phone.

When my car is finally done I will be taking it straight to steve to get tuned.

Yep, shop hands usually learn the hard way though. Any idea what their going to do with the old motor?

Comptech

The motor is in steve kan's hands now. He can do what he wants with it.

Steve called yesterday to let me know what shape the motor was in. The verdict is it is scrap. The front iron is cracked pretty bad the center iron has a small crack also the freeze plugs in the rear are gone. He doesn't know about the housings yet. He told me it would be better to just get a new motor and start over.

that really sucks, but at least it's not left in your lap. if there is a silver lining, then i guess that's it. keep updating when you can. good luck.

Comptech

Just call a call from ron in MN. His insurance company came threw. The new motor is ordered. Then steve has to do the build then ship it back to Mn. It sucks because by time ron gets the motor back in steve will be gone for three weeks. Which means I will have to wait until the end of april to get my car tuned.

Comptech

Well I dropped the motor off with steve at his new shop in fort worth, texas last weekend. He said it would take about a week or two to get the motor rebuilt. I should finally have my car to drive in two weeks.

make sure you make some vids on the dyno and driving it a bit. i wanna hear this thing scream!!!

Comptech

I hate to say it but the car isnt running. The ecu has a bad spot in it so it had to go back to electromotive to get fixed. I should have it back by this weekend. I was able to drive it. I put about 30 miles on it. The car sounds great. I cant wait to get some boost to this monster. Its very stong just on the motor.

^glad everything worked out for you, with the wife and the car. Can't wait to see the numbers it puts down.

Comptech

Need your help guys. My car isnt running right still. It keeps cutting out and sputtering. It started at 3500rmps. Then he got it to 5000rpms. As of last week he got it to 6200rpms. He just cant figure out why its not running right. He has data logged it and sent it to Electomotive and a few other people that specialize in this unit. I talked to Steve Kan about it and he said it could be a problem with the secondary injectors. I checked and thats not the problem. PF supercars told me that it sounds like tunning and a fuel problem. Ron is a great tunner and a great mechanic. PFS said it was a problem with the premix but I bought there premix container. I need help so I can drive my car more than the 30 miles I have driven it since I dropped it off over a month ago.
