Even when the car's down, I can still wash it and keep it spiffy. :)
It'd be incredibly stupid if the reason it was down was something extremely simple and stupid..

Just keep putting money into it until the problem is solved.

Looking good! Now get it fixed!
I wish I could hand wash my car right now. Instead I have to use an automatic wash. Stupid water restrictions. Well, at least it's touch less.

I dunno! Hopefully
If it is see how much your Dad is worth
How much would he have to be worth for you to trade him in? $5 million? Or would you be willing to be fatherless for enough money to buy an Alfa GTV and Aston DB9 Manuél?

Can this fund buy me a 911 too?

Better idea; we create a start up and hope either BTU or CAcoalminer are venture capitalists and are willing to provide the seed money. Only, instead of making a real business with a plan, product, model, and customer base...WE BALL OUTTA CONTROL AND GIT HOOKERS, COCAINE, 911S AND SHIT!!!
Actually...I'm failing to see how our fake startup differs in function to a real one nowadays. Also theres a 99.9999% chance that CA and BTU read valleywag and thus will not fall for our plan. Damnit...
![]() 10/10/2014 at 20:05 |

Haha not nearly that much. Neither of us make as much money as it seems. We both spent ALL of our money that didn't go into our houses on cars.
My dad only takes vacations to pick up cars he found.
I only go on vacation if I'm forced to cause it's a bachelor party or wedding.
He's been cheap with furniture too. He didn't even have a sofa in his family room until recently. There was nowhere to sit when I went to his house cause there was only a chair for him and his gf. They finally got a new sofa and it's cheap. But it's comfy

If I ever voluntarily spend money on a piece of furniture that isn't vital to my well-being, hit me in the head with a baseball bat.
![]() 10/10/2014 at 20:44 |
|
Hahaha. Well technically no furniture is vital. You can eat and sleep on the floor.
It just leads to some hilarious scenarios. I had just moved into a new apartment in college and had no bed yet. I met this girl at a party who decided to make out with me. She said she wanted to come back to my place and I warned her that I had no furniture. I don't think she believed me cause when she got there she was like "oh crap you literally don't have a bed"

LOOK what I found. The place next door to my work has this for sale. It has the Challenge Stradale software and exhaust:
http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/…
I wonder if they'd take the E46 and E90 for it, no additional cash thrown into the deal
Then I'd be 100% Manuél and have a "beater" Ferrari

OMG I'm literally in love with that car.
That's the car I'd buy as a starter Ferrari. That exact car, if I couldn't find it in blue.
Dude. If you bought that, and called it a beater Ferrari, you'd be approaching god-status.
![]() 10/10/2014 at 21:19 |

Haha I tried finding a blue car first. I did. But it was more expensive. Let me find the link
Imagine having a beater 360 and being on Oppo. I dunno about God status cause that's still reserved only for CAC. But it would be hilarious to poke fun at Doug. Every time Doug made a post about his 360 I would make a counter post about my beater Ferrari. Doug would say "hey check me out going on a road trip in my 360" and I would be like "hey check out me giving my neighbor my 360 to go pick up beers for me"

Is that yours?? It's gorgeous. :)
Problem: Car will startup and idle, albeit rough for a minute or two. It will run until the oil temp. gauge gets up to about 120, in which case, it will surge a bit, struggle to idle, and die/stall. Here are some videos of it happening.
Watch the last 20 seconds of this and you'll see the problem.

Thanks I had just finished cleaning it. It was pretty dusty.
"There we go still makes me sad every time so very sad"- know the feeling
I don't know about the K jetronic.
My 914 with D jetronic did somewhat the same thing. It would start up fine, go from 1100- then 1800 rpms and then almost die. I would have to hold the throttle to about 2k for it to warm up and then run fine. A couple of random things.
1) check all vacuum lines
2) make sure all wires fully plugged in. (I accidentally hit one of my spark plug wires off and couldn't believe how shitty it ran.)
The original Aux Air valve wasn't working. I sprayed the piss out of it with penetrating oil. (early ones were just a crappy bi-metallic spring) Also when the PO put the car away was having a couple problems, (he said with the injectors), as a result the fuel pressure was cranked waaaayy up( on a 914 its on top of the "computer"). The result was a cool pa pa pa when letting off WOT, but nearly stalling when starting cold.

How do I check the vacuum lines? I've heard that many times but still haven't a clue how to check them.
I can check the plugs tomorrow after work.
I must see more pics of that 914! (I could tell from the dash layout) :)

Its is often the default statement for old cars. make sure they are on snug and don't just slide off. Or are cracked/kinked.
