hi

i,m from Toa Baja i always go to Carolinas Race way park on jueves jejejej


ya que sabes mas ingles que yo pues para que les puedas a eplicar a ellos lo de la araña como portearla y pulirla:
Tienes que sacar la araña del motor , ella abre por la mitad, la mitad de abajo es la ma facil, abrela hasta que llegue a la junta con las piedritas (evita agrandarlo mas aya de la junta) portea hasta que quede todo como espejo todos los tubos de la araña y la parta de ariba hasta donde puedas llegar, la parte de ariba tiene unas chapitas, son 4(como si fueran pecetas monedas) agarados por un tubito finito, sacalas y el tubito tambien, la parte que queda abierta de donde estaba el tubito lo sellas con un tornillo que no sobresalga para adentro y epoxi por afuera par aque no pase aire. es facil pero toma tiempo.

Take out the intake manifold. Open her up, it's easier to loosen the bottom side. disasemble until you get to the seal/gasket with small stones (avoid grinding her beyond the gasket/seal) polish all the manifold tubes/pipes and the top as far as you can until everything looks like a mirror, the upper part has some caps (4 that look like coins) that are secured with a thin tube, take them out with the tube, seal the place where the tube was placed with a screw that won't stick out on the inside. Epoxy it on the outside so no air can go in. It's easy but it takes time.

Sí he ido a la pista de Carolina, Sí he tirao mi carro pero me quedo callao pq mi carro necesita arreglo en pal de cosas. Mi primera y unica vez fue de 18.11 porque me dormi bien kbron en la luz. Hice 1.33 de reaccion yo creo.
El papel de tiempo

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to get to this in the spring. Do you remember approx. how long it took?? Should I set aside a day or more?? Did you need to get underneath the car?? I seem to remember there being a braket that bolted to the intake and the block(?) to support it. Would actually using metal polish itself, once the grinding is done help?? Is there a specific tool you used (dremel?) does said tool come with coarse and fine grinding stones?? Also, where did you notice most of the difference? Top end? Bottom end? Mid range? Also how did you clean it after you were finished? Solvents? just soap and water? Did you need to take the injectors out, or rather did you need to replace the o-rings on the injectors before you put them back in?

Thanks.
