No, I don't think it's a true story, it could be though.. Either way, it looks like a great movie with hot *** in it!

I'll call you on either Wed. or Thu. and we'll talk about it some more then.. Jason, if you're coming to the meet, I can just bring the parts there unless you wanna meet before the meet.

I think I'm going to attempt to change my spark plugs need to search for the DIY.

I'll probably go get some Subway at Ivory8's joint in anthem since it isn't too far.
Hey I'm off this Thur if you have them now I have a house and I can help you change them I did mine on my AT it dont take that long.

I'm all about the hot *** as long as it's not Scott Baio. Speaking of hot ***, Armin don't you have that lady's truck you should be fixin'? The one that came up to us while we were waxin' the 8's. She's gonna be like this while you're under the hood.

Hmm this sounds like a wonderful idea even though I don't think they need to be changed anymore but it is worth a look see. I've been itching to change them out. I can probably change my oil there too while we're down there I have a bunch of castrol gtx 5w20 I inherited from work (not stolen) , I have enough for both of our cars if you need to change yours. I hope I don't start work yet. What is your number? PM me, I'll call you on Wednesday.

Armin- Cefiore is a yogurt joint on Maryland across the street from Coldstone and 24 Hour Fitness. It's like ice cream but without the cream. BTW your AT was pretty quick even for being on a donut and poor alignment and the greddy sounds sweet, not too loud like your brother's GT. You should get Phil's setup once you're back up and running.

I know I haven't met you yet but I like your thinking.

Speaking of food meets I thought one was supposed to be coming up sometime soon. Can someone bump it.

AJ, before you just write it off as bad gas, check the plugs and test the coils. Slight loss of power sounds like a coil(s) breaking down. Have you been redlining the 8? Need to do that to keep the carbon down. Coil check is easy - do it the old fashion way of just using a timing light or the new way of checking each with a meter. A bad coil or fouled spark plug can cause damage to our rotaries.

Any case, I was actually surprised myself the way my AT was running, even though it was on a spare and poor wheel alignment. I know, it will run a lot better very soon, I can't wait! I might have to go with Phil's set up, I just gotta test drive his again one of these days to fully convince myself!

Good looking out Phil, yeah I wanted to check my plugs at Gilbert's on Thurs. but it looks like I'll be starting work tomorrow so I'll have to do it on the weekend. I'm going to have find my meter since I don't have a timing light anymore.

I just flushed my oil. Let me know if you want your stuff changed or plugs looked at
I start work on Wed. until Fri. from 0600 til Idk it varies so I'm not sure what meets I will be able to make now most likely the Friday one for sure. When is your next day off and do you have a timing gun?

Cacophany and Annette: You do know where those little boba ***** come from...FISH EYES!
