Hit it with a hammer.

Best Case: It fixes your car.

Worst Case: Everyone looks cool hitting stuff with a hammer.

Nate, I was floggin my enduro car down the road one morning before a race at Standish. Everything was warmed up so i pulled er up to 6800 a couple times. I wasnt satisfied with the way the carb was runnin. I did it again, when she hit full pull, the dipstick went to the moon. Something to do with the bands I was told. Fluid poured everywhere,didnt have a fire cause the fluid rust proofed my car and windshield rather than dripping on my manifolds. I still dont like road testing with a hood.

Thats funny "I think my diapers are full".

Hey Ryan, we came in 7th in the feature and 2nd in the figure-8. With that stock motor out of my camaro that you helped me pull.

I'll ask my trans guy about this tomorrow, he really lives & breathes these things. Are you running a 350 turbo?

good run G-man, glad to hear it, To bad the other motor went hay wire. I think we would have had a little more with that one.

yeah norm its a 350 t...plus im running a trans cooler

Thats priceless!!!!!!!!!

Make sure your vent isn't plugged. Bugs like to build nest in the vent. Also run your fluid level on the low mark cold, it will end up showing almost full when hot.

My trans guy agreed that the vent was plugged.

Nate the closer you get the more little bugs pop up. Eventually youll get it there. If I manage to have any money left over to race with after getting my motor broke in Ill be there Sat. It'll be good to see you finally get there bro.

i will be there saturday with car

good luck nate.

Two things to remember:
1. if it were easy everyone would do it
2. crap happens
