    My wife made plans early on so there's s Disney marathon going on the same weekend. She signed up first so I'm tied down to that. The good news is I'll be just around the corner so I'm hoping to drop by the show. It's been a while for me.

    Just curious if anyone coming to the tech day has a CIS fuel tester gauge. If so, can you bring it? I would love to check my fuel pressure.

    My car was idling beautifully until I installed the external brass inline fuel check valve (at the pump). Immediately after that, it began hunting idle. The new accumulator made the hunting better, but it's still there. I suspect that I ended up lowering the system pressure with the check valve. Would that make sense?

    I want to do this check before adjusting the dwell.

    Also, I can bring my A/C gauges (covers both R12 and R134a) in case anyone wants to check their refrigerant levels. Let me know.

    A quick update:

    We have a total of 7 cars registered for the Celebration show thus far.

    For the Tech Day, we have had 15 people RSVP.

    I can't stress this enough: If you are planning on joining us for the Tech Day, please RSVP.

    Woo hoo we got a lot of stuff fixed too.

    No torsion bar fatalities and one near death experience. Better the socket than the bar I suppose.

    In the very last minutes of the meeting id had a look at maurice's car to check the positioning of the vacuum for the brake booster. Found by accident AN AC hose binding against the steering coupling.
    We were able to repair it before any serious damage could be caused

    Yes indeed. It was a great day, and it was nice to meet and or see everyone again. Brandon and Laura, thanks for hosting the event and for the delicious lunch.

    Nick, thanks for the ride in your awesome car.

    Elliott, your time car replica was sweet..., complete with sounds!

    I liked seeing everyone's efforts and ideas on their cars. Like last time, I learned a lot.

    Oh, it was also very cool to see a Tesla roasting the rear tires. All you could hear was the shredding rubber.

    Sorry I couldn't bring my car... Next time!

    Cheers,
    Dana

    Thanks to everyone who braved the awful weather and came out today! It was great meeting some new faces and catching up with some familiar ones. The only casualty was my 3/8" allen socket, which died on our 4th torsion bar adjustment.
