Some months there will / may be trips to various locations or to get food.

I know that some of you work strange hours and accommodations to the side trips can be made for you.


The next meet will be Friday August 21, 2009 (third Friday). Make some plans so that you will be there.

I should be able to make it out to this one

Five things normally cause your problem with lazy starts:
1. a weak starter
2. a weak battery
3. fouled plugs
4. coils not doing their thing (check with timing light)
5. The fourth would not effect you cuz your stock but it is a tuning issue. (NON TECHNICAL LANGUAGE) Now if you have a Cobb AP your dwell setting may have been retarded too far for increased gas mileage.

Of course there could be several other related items such as a fuel pump filter being clogged, a weak fuel pump, bad gas but with our cars the five item above will most likely be the culprit.

damn! that sucks! dealers telling me the battery and starter tested good and that theres nothing to worry about. another mechanic is telling me it could be the a low pressure in the fuel lines cause of the heat and everything will get back to normal when the weather cools off. but now it seems to be getting worse day by day. the worse part about all this is that my warranty ends next week.

boy do not over heat them car parts. this desert heat will kill rotorys. you do a lot of stop and go and turn the car on and off from the sounds of it, hell you need a daily driver or what we out here call a beater. save your 8. dont get them irons hot and warp them or its over son.
