AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!



It's 85 degrees here in Des Moines IA and my RX-7 does not run. This my friends, blows chunks. *sighs*



???



On another note, does anyone make a block off plate for the EGR valve or do ya just make one? I looked on Mazdatrix but no joy there. Of course I'm a dragon of little brain so I probably missed it.

I dunno, if Mazdatrix doesn't catch the post I am sure he wouldn't mind you dropping him a PM https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



Sorry you are having such a **** time bro... I could be a smart ass and say "Have you tried removing the "Powered by Microshit" sticker", but that seems a little harsh all things considered.



So I take it the emissions crap removal did not go well?

Hrmm. Think I should draw a big "I Love Linux" in the dust that covers the back windshield? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



I tried to just close off all the known holes but no go there, likely there is another leak I'm not aware of. Starting to wonder if spraying the intake with plastikote.... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



Didn't have time to tinker with it today too busy teaching Network + and the like at work to have time. Hope to get at it tomorrow https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

85 degrees huh... It didn't even break 50 today. Not bad, but its raining pretty hard. Last night It was snowing so hard on the pass I could barely see the road! Luckily just slush on the roadway, but it was really coming down.

It was 87 in Ames today, and my car is in NY...I feel your pain.

Oh geesh I feel like an idiot now, I looked there probably twice.



It's probably all Bill Gates fault too!
