Not airbags, but pneumatic cylinders are what (I believe) out perform coilovers. And the only way to adjust firmness (without changing rideheight) in a pneumatic spring system is by adjusting the volume. I did some research after an article came out in some magazine. Apparently, it didn't "outp...

NAPA and Kragen (I forget what they're called in Canada, auto parts stores) usually have a bunch of O-Rings that you can go through to find one that fits.

But if the roadster clutch is the hot ticket on an L-series, and fits on the KA, but the truck clutch holds better, wouldn't that indicate that the truck clutch would be "better" than the roadster clutch?

Congrats. Yeah, my brother and I almost forgot that bracket. It seems odd to me that a bracket spaces the starter, but oh well...

Just to check the obvious... which side of the vacuum advance is plugged? If you have a vacuum leak there, and then supply enough fuel so that it idles, it'll idle really high....

Check for vacuum leaks... How's the PCV... other major vacuum leak possibilites...

I wasn't really sure if they were ALL included, but that was like 20 molds. (I thought you guys used british spelling in Canada... moulds)

Is this a sudden change, or has it always been like this since it's been back on the road? I had a car once that got some crap stuck in the main jets. I could only idle or accelerate. That was funny, 15min of driving on the freeway, either floored, or off the gas. Like a WWI airplane. Speed adjustme...

Stick with the z22, or go with a vg... You know how you have an extra head gasket lying around... good luck finding one for an import only motor...

If it's slipping, can you turn the rack down a bit mor...
