Got a shotgun for the BMW? Sounds like it needs to be put out to pasture....
Dude I wouldn't want you to ditch her! I know that for sure wouldn't be cool. |

I think it would wise to bring Jack instead of Bianca
Jack would want to hang around and see the doings and help. Bianca would want to turn tail and leave.... what happens if there is something else wrong with the clutch and you need a ride back to VA? Assumption is the mother of all fuckups...

The reason I was going to go with Bianca is because she's got nothing else going on Friday, and I'd like to leave around noon-2pm. Not sure if Jack's schedule will permit that. Quote:

Hmmm... That might potentially work than.. Still gunna likely bug Bianca if I just ditch and leave her at home. The bimmer started fucking up this week and is now throwing a CEL (I'm thinking a coil shit the bed) so I don't really want to take that... Was gunna get new tires, and an alignment, on the Miata and take that up..

I like Brian's "serious" face.
What's the verdict on the break-in? What were the issues and what did it make while spinning the rollers? |

The break-in started awesome last night. The engine was super smooth and took the 200 mile drive home like a champ.
After 100 miles of driving around today my car got a bit of an attitude this evening... I'm not sure (yet) of if I just ran a bit to low on fuel, if a spark plug stopped working, if an injector pigtail got disconnected, or if an injector is blocked... Long story short I was driving home from dropping Jack off and heading up a hill when I got some breakup and then, while going down hill, my AFRs leaned WAY out before dying half way down the hill. It didn't really want to start up afterwards and when it did it was very unhappy. I threw a couple gallons of fuel into it hoping that would fix it... Then I just got a tow home. I'll pull/clean the injectors in the morning, deflood the engine, pull the UIM to check the injectors/connectors, etc., etc.. Yay for trouble shooting!

So it turns out that all the car needed was a good nights rest...
I went down to work on the car this afternoon and, before tearing into the engine bay, decided to give just starting it another try. Lo and behold, she fired right up! The idle was a bit unsteady but that was because my PFC was reading 3 degrees C for both air and water, the AFRs were where they were supposed to be so I kept it running. Once the car got up to 15c it was idling a bit better, and by 30c it was smoothing out more and would idle fine without any assistance. As she warmed up to, and past, 60c she really began purring. I'm SOOOO happy that it was simply a matter of me running low on fuel. Gotta remember that the FD doesn't get 25mpg+ and that when I start getting to the 200 mile mark in a tank I better get more gas and/or avoid sharp turns and steep hills! lol So I went ahead and picked up another 3 gallons of fuel while I was running an errand in the DD. I put that in (along with a generous helping of premix) for a total of 6 gallons, plus whatever was left in the tank, and I'll top it off tomorrow while I'm at work. Vid of it being alive!!
