Serious or not

it's eaither a electrical fix or a 3.6 fix ;)

its part of ownership right, gotta sorts the car out....

I am gonna have to intro you two next time Frank is town...

cave creek to firebird AE-X, I-10-!-8-gila bend-phx-cavecreek that was my sunday!

Frank,
That's a tough pill to swallow. Good to hear Chuck said it sounded normal when you were cranking it. I hope it is just electrical and an easy (on the wallet) fix. Keep us posted.

Chuck, you were at Firebird sunday? You should have stopped by, I am at the exit before Firebird. Was there a track day sunday?

yes g/friend and i did another "road test" and watched auto-x follies at firebird. lots of vettes, ricers,some british stuff. watched em kill cones for awhile, then jumped on I-10 to I-8-gila bend(boy that was cool) and back up to I-10, then past cardinal stadium and back to cave krick. CAR RAN FLAWLESS! lots of ICE cops along I-8 guarding the homeland from illegals.

came home and tenderly and lovingly washed my trusty steed. (KILLED ALOT OF BUGS AND ORANGE CATERPILLARS).g/friend got miffed and split. went grocery shopping grabbed some cervezas and continued detail until wee hours.

today it is getting waxed by detail guy at airport with state of the art AEROSPACE WAX that is used on million $+ pilatus turboprops. will find out what wax he uses. THEN monyana it is getting 3M clear tape(helicopter tape) all across RUF front end, down rocker panels and rear quarters.

its amazing how many beers you can consume lovingly washing your car!

did you get a ppi?

No...and very stupid of me....

Don Jackson came back and did the PPI...all is well...

2% on through out the range....


the reason why the engine shut off...dirty fuel filter lines and connectors...

headtstuds are good....


some minor issues but the car is fixed and will pass emissions :)

I feel so much better now

a freeking fuel filter?????????????????????// i had one at home! wow at least it wasnt some hi buck horror part that cost gazzillions! you dodged a bullet my man. congrats. get it thru emissions when its cool out and your off and running. going out to auto-x this weekend. wait til you see wax/polish job and 3m clear tape on all frontal impact surfaces. tested by 3m up to 100 miles an hour. will dent metal before tape breaks and chips paint. guaranteed for 5 years.

DJ at Don Jackson is doing that for me tonight...Im picking it up tomorrow

what about the battery problem ie charging? time for you to go surfing for all the spares you will need. did car come with tool kit? is it complete? spare tire, inflator, spare alt belt, spare fuel filter(duh-lol), all fuses,relays etc etc etc blah blah. yes spares are spendy, BUT YOU COULD HAVE BROKE DOWN IN BFE! like me. and also have tow truck wreck NEW RUF SPOILER!!! and have pissed off girlfriend in high heels pushing car!!!!! that was more fun than i ever want to remember!

Fuel filter must have been really clogged, or just really old. Hope nothing is in your tank.
Charles is right on the fuses and spare stuff. time to collect all that stuff.

Changing fuses and adding swepco to the tranny this weekend .....among other things

Anyone in AZ have 2 7 x 16's I can use? I need to send 2 of my Fuchs to AL Reed so I can get them polished...my 9's are almost ready
