The lines have a coating of oil in them and the canister is catching some oil. I unscrewed the cap from the bottom and oil drained out. It hasn't showed up in the sight glass yet.

E-for-E trans swap. Gotta use what I have. Been missing sitting in that seat pretty bad. Next up: warranty LCAs.
Sent from the bathroom via crapatalk.

Hopefully it is super reliable now. Post up some pics of your festy.

My wheels are ICW "Something Or Others", 7 spokes, allegedly 38mm offset, but they are WIDE (for a Festiva anyway), thus necessitating spacers. I've heard that if I install an Aspire rear strut/shock, its spring perch is higher off the tire and the spacer issue will likely be a moot point then.
But when I hit 60, 65, I pretty much don't slow down, so curves with 45mph safety sign aren't making them rub either.

Hey I slept in my back seat friday night, doesn't look quite as comfy as that, and it was at a rest stop...

Or for going 88MPH all the time.
However, this may help me with my delivery times. Although a time pauser would be best for that

Installed new PVC valve & cleaned tube & nozzle on plenum. Lots of black grainy crap in pvc tube. Seems to be a little peppier.

BP donor still don't run. It's got a couple gallons of gas in it now. I pulled off all of the intake tubing before the VAF. I can push the VAF flap when the key is "ON" and I can hear the fuel pump humming away. I can get the car to crank but no cough or sputter. I bought it with a small front end collision on the drivers side that killed the radiator and kinked the intake tubes. The PO said they just had it towed home and hadn't run it.
Now it's pouring down rain and I don't have a covered work area. It's got oil, doesn't hold water. I'm just a llittle puzzled on where to start.
