I got a call from Brian at 11pm Friday night getting the low down on the current situation and when we got off the phone about an hour later, I couldnt believe he was going through all this again with the fuel system! I received a text at 6:45am that he had just got the car together and was on his way down... thats NO sleep from 11pm all the way through.. this man is dedicated!!

Yeah, I had been awake since about 7:30 that morning too. After all was said and done it was another 40 hr strait day. Ended up going to Oyster Bay too - cocktails, a hotub and some well.... made the day a little easier. I overdid it though and slept till noon, woke up all sore and hungover and only managed to squeeze out 2 hours of work on the FC. Heading out to the shop now though. Hopefully tonight I'll get the engine out and broken open. Lofty goal so we'll see what happens. I ordered all my gaskets and o-rings from MazdaMotorsports today, they're due in tomorrow morning.

EJ - to his defense, I was sitting ready and willing with the video camera, lol. Once they pulled the comp test, I thought it best to put the camera down - no need for evidence of what may have been the destruction of a perfectly clean FC caught on tape  .
I'm more than impressed with Dave though at KDR, the man is awesome... I really cant wait to see you yank that year rotor out and find it be as simple as the corner seal!
Engine 4DOT5 is the one... I can feel it! It'd be sweet if you get that comp test sorted out on the Motec though too... at least that will save you some drive time...

I spent some time with the Motec last night, I got it reading betterm but I really think the sensor isn't the greatest. I got 3 nice bounces to 79.5-81. I tried to get that low bounce but regardless how much I tried, I couldn't find it. The engine was cold though so that may have something to do with it. We'll see, hopefully the fucker is easy to spot and I'll be able to take care of it quick and be driving again by the weekend.
