What kind of buffer you need? I have a Porter Cable Orbital and a Dewalt Rotary. Take your pick. Just return it in the same shape.

I am not a bodywork guy, but i do detail cars. So, i have a bit of experience buffing/colorsanding cars.

Shoot me a PM when you want to come down, and i can take a look at it. We can figure out which buffer you need.

it might be a vaccum leak. I was having problems today when I was in first and gassed it the RPM would fall and car would stall unless hit the gas quick again to save it. it was annoying at first but I got use to it quick. also I wasn't smoking again today. but I think I have a vacuum leak on my fuel injectors (o-rings and gromments) I'll have to double check on it. once I can afford gas anyway
