Engine is fine didn't even touch it, still starts right up. So gonna start parting it out.

Well I had decided to start a new project and my buddy wanted to buy the Festiva from me so he did. And a month later he slide off the road going to fast in a corner and took out a railroad crossing pole.

Oh wow. If you haven't already, grab the engine and spolier. I am sure there are people who will pay good money for it

[drumnerd33]

Believe it or not him and another friend of mine were headed to work in the morning when it happened. He was in the passenger seat and no broken bones or cuts just bad bruising.

[drddan]

WOW! I hate to see that! Hope you and all are okay!!!!

[gergorian]

duuuuuude..... I hope everyone is ok.

thats intense.
there has to be a story to go along with this??

[Team Lightning]

Holy cow!! What happed? I certainly hope everyone's ok.

Festiva is dead.....

I found my rich problem. I had my main jet too rich and the idle jet leaned out to compensate, so I was @ a 110 primary main and 45 primary idle. So I started to adjust and ended up now with 90 primary main and 55 primary idle. Much better but I'm going to try to go to 85 main Primary and 60 idle primary.

No the place I went to talk to them didn't even have a dyno and when talking about tuning the carb they were full of crap and didn't even know what they were saying....lol one guy suggestion my rich condition at cruising was because my air filter was on top of the carb....lol

You are running rich because your intake manifold is under the carb.

Yeah Matt does magic on the head that's for sure, maybe you can find a race engine builder over there to open the head up and let it breath better

Good to hear about the carb.
My DD is a 88 Camry Wagon.
Hopefully picking up my first B3 car today, ours in Aus are a little different to yours over there apparently, and we have no Matt so it'll be an interesting journey.

Thanks guys it is a lot of fun to drive, still tossing some ideas around in my head for the best power adder in my situation. Almost have the carb dialed in perfect now

Greaaaat thread cannot wait to see numbers. Love the idea of a tricked out 1.3.

Always loved kei class racers and the 1.3 is like a big boys version.

Lordhardware, look up tominmo, he has a slick little Festiva with a trick 1.3
