Does anyone local have one of these? I was thinking of buying one.

its 300 shipped ish



If no one has one ... would anyone else want to use it for a set fee? 300 is a bit much for me to spend right now ... but lets say 50 bucks says you can use it any time you want...


would anyone be interested?

Ditto for me. I just tried to place an order for one from TwistedRotors' web site; but was told both the blue display and green display models are out of stock. I've left emails for TR asking him/her to let me know if that changes; but in the meantime, I'm trying to diagnose a hard start condition when the engine is warm.

Longpath - the hard start when engine is warm thing.... I dont know exactly what it's caused by, but its VERY common. It's not a problem per se with the engine. If your car is a 2005 or 2004 you should have got an upgraded (higher RPM) starter motor at some point under warranty. A shitty starter in the first few model years contributed to a lot of flooding issues.
