Happy birthday Tony!!

Lots going on... sounds like I might be headed back to Austria for work at the end of March.

In car related news, earlier this week Kyle tried to move the 8 out of the garage so he could change the oil in his car. The 8 wouldn't start. It ran a little funny the last time I ran it and I did a cold stop... He tried the deflooding method in the manual and it didn't work. James came down yesterday and we tried to get it running to no avail. The spark plugs were completely soaked in fuel and coated in carbon. They're in really bad shape. "Tried" to start the car to push some of the fuel out of the spark plug holes and a lot of fuel mist came out. He cleaned off the plugs, put them back in, but the car still won't start. (sad2) So hopefully I can get the car to start again with only changing the spark plugs but I'm kind of skeptical....

Thanks for the link last night Josh, I'll check it out..

Let me illustrate...

EDIT: the 3 dry ones in the group shot were after extensive cleaning... thats as good as they got.. the electrode was pretty much melted and there was no iridium coating left on them... worst ive seen to date.

 

[altspace]

Most welcome. Yea, those plugs were in bad shape to begin with. I bet new ones will do the trick for sure.

I was watching that show "Wheeler Dealers" last night. They were restoring an 1st gen MR2. The mechanic did an amazing job on the wheels. The rest of the car turned out pretty good too.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

my buddy tried that. Got nothing from the State but a run around.
Insurance told him to take a hike to as it wasn't covered.
