Never would've thought of that... Sweet! ...and easy.

 

[MiataBernie]

Wrapping my mind around the cigar throttle body thing... while doing the test, the engine is NOT running, correct? If it were, the glove would be sucked into the TB and not puffed out like shown in the pictures...

 

[shane02pro5]

Lol yes engine off

 

[Cleverfrog]

"take a puff and blow it into the vac line, which will create positive pressure" aka why the glove expanded

 

[shane02pro5]

Engine as warm as tolerable to work on... small vac leaks are more apparent.

Looking at some rims bc RH got messed up... I'm looking at acura 17x8 wheels with a hub bore if im not mistaken is 64.1 and MSP are 67.1, will i be able to have the rims bored out to 67.1 and still be safe to drive on? If i can how much would it roughly cost, about 200 bucks?...

thanks in advance

definitely call some shops and get some quotes. going from 54.6 to 67.1 best I found was around $120 per wheel here. Safe to drive on as long as it's still centered.

Turbo oil feed line gaskets replaced and an oil change... much needed oil change actually. First time on replacing the gaskets, it wasn't as hard as I imagined.

changed my alternator last night. got the car running, but now wont stay on if i turn on all the accessories since my battery has been dead for at least 3 months. and i mean dead DEAD. putting it on the shop charger today while at work and hopefully itll fire right up without needing a jump-start.
