Tuesday: lol, the basic rule here is that any strange and or funny noises coming out of your car aren't a good thing. (just curious as to what a dirt dobber is and what the heck they sound like when building a nest)

Argomento: Re:
Stevie: all it does is improve the fuel atomization, which brings it closer to what a fuel injection system would do. with yours being an efi motor, you're better off working on an intercooler and maybe an improved induction system(you've probably done some of that anyways)

Argomento: Re:
Stevie: i have to run a carburater on mine, i had 3 of them custom done to maximize the mixture.(it has to do with the way the fuel is coming out of the boosters into the venturi, that cut the wasted fuel down a little. now we get more power out of it!)

Argomento: Re:
Kipling: actually i use 20-50, it's more stabil at tempurature and takes less hp to push throught the motor. remember, i run a restricted class, everything i can do to cut hp loss is actually a hp gain!

Argomento: Re:
tazman7474: one of the guys in the garage works in a large dealership by day, he tell us that some of the new motors are running .0007-.001! that's why they run 5w-20 oil in them, 10w-40 won't even flow through the motor!

9. Gennaio 2006, 03:48:03
tazman7474 
Argomento: Re:
Kipling: at .003 i start losing oil pressure when the engine is up to temp, we probably run a little hotter than most boats do

Argomento: Re:
Kipling: i run clearances of .002 on the rods and mains, the book calls for .0015-.0025 i split it and run 8,000 rpm all day long with them!

Argomento: Re:
Stevie: with a problem like that and seeing how close the tolerances are in the newer motors, i think you're looking at pulling the motor and checking everything for dirt and debris!

Argomento: Re: as a comparison
Stevie: sometimes you have to trade tire life for grip! if i could only come up with a compound that gripped like bubble gum and wore like cast iron, i'd be rich!

Argomento: Re: as a comparison
Stevie: the goodyear looked like the best choice to me too! and it's in the range of what you said you spent anyways. if i check around with some of the guys, i can probably find a couple of sites that have them cheaper.

Argomento: Re: as a comparison
Stevie: when you go to the site, look on the left side for "search by size" that's a much faster way to search than by vehichle

ScarletRose: I'm thinking it's most likely in the dimmer switch assembly, considering you mentioned that you had to use the column shift to get them to work. i'm assuming you mean that you have to wiggle the dimmer switch handle!
