I detailed? A 35ft boat this weekend. Interesting experience. Complete different approach as there were no sponges involved, rather brushes. It sucked, especially when I had to wax the hull.



But it was oddly satisfying when I was pressure washing the deck and all other areas, green stuff everywhere.

At that weight, I would be happy with like 250whp lol.

Old vid, but have you seen this car? Custom twin charged setup, dual fuel system running isopropyl alcohol and pump gas for 680hp.

There are a ton of great videos on the web but this is one of my favs. It's got good sounds, great action and more than a couple of "oh sshhhiiiitttt!" moments.

I have come across a couple Caterham 7's on track and they are always shockingly fast. They both seemed to struggle with tire warmup though. Probably due to how freaking light they are.

He had that shit dialed! Notice what a great job he did keeping it on the pipe? Excellent gearbox & footwork. Notice how, even with such frequent gear changes, he never applies throttle prematurely. My kind of driver.

Never seen that one, @Stephen W., Thanks!.

Well the recall on the fuel pump didn't fix the issue. Car drove fine to work this morning but I went out to eat lunch and after idling for 15 minutes it suddenly shut off.

Start it back up and it struggles to idle and I cant give it any throttle. Sets for about a minute and starts back up fine. I didn't have time to check but there was a pool of something behind the exhaust. Guess it's time to make a thread.

Ah, ok. Did you make sure to spray the outer more visible resistor as well as the one inside the plastic shaft that's harder to see?

When I did mine I just went to town on both of them and sprayed a lot of that spray all over. Only took about a minute for it to dry though.

Sorry if that doesn't fix it, was just hoping it would be a quick and easy fix for you like it was when my car randomly started having the stalling issue.

The fact that after sitting for a minute it starts up normally is especially perplexing. Maybe someone here with more knowledge than myself would know what that means. Also just re-read your post and see you mentioned it idled fine for 15 mins and then randomly shut off/died. That is so strange.
