if there's one thing I'm good at, it's being thorough in asking questions...to the point of annoyance



I figure if other folks know something I don't, I'll try to squeeze every bit of information out of them that I could use [/quote]

it's not annoying at all, it's actually inspiring...



These types of threads are far more interesting and informational than many others... and useful for future members who might also experience the same problem.

 

yeah plus you can look back and say, "hey i did this myself"

wow, you guys make me feel warm and fuzzy...earlier today I wanted to chuck the car off a cliff, if such a thing exists in this flat Floridian landscape...now I want to get it done right, just to prove that I can



this is great because me wife doesn't really understand it, considering I'm basically ignoring her when I'm doing the car stuff; and people tell me I made a mistake by buying something that needs fixing



if it wasn't for you guys, I would probably have swapped this thing for something more conventional, or I would have put the Mazda mechanic's kid through college

 

I think I have taken my UIM off more than 20 times in the 9 months that I have owned my car. I only tagged the stuff the first time I did it, after that its easy to see where everything goes. It usually takes me about 20 minutes to get it off now. Maybe Banzai has the right bolts for the pulsation damper? Are they different between S4 and S5?

 

even if he did, I think it would be easier to get them locally, rather than wait for them to be sent here

 

you dont know how much i just learned by reading this..

 

so any luck, is it keeping the fuel in the fuel system?
