After throwing a fit with all the tact and class of a three year old. I gathered my self, had a snack, and realized I only broke the inlet, not anything on the motor. So not so bad news. Plus now a have an excuse for a Junkin' trip.

I do have a Civic shortshifter though, but I seriously doubt that is the problem, since I have been driving it for over 2 years with it on the car and not having a problem.1991 Ford Festiva BP (Full Aspire/Rio Swap) (337k Miles) (Around 95k Engine)

I installed new headlamp assemblies, a new speedometer cable, a new air filter, and a passenger side mirror. Later this weekend I'm draining and filling the radiator and plastidipping the bumpers. If my new head unit shows up in time, I'll install that as well.Axlander9289, brother of ThisVelologist

Resurrected the '90 after about 10 months off the road. New/used Aspire rack, new tie rods, new lower trans/engine mount, exhaust welded, oil change. Got an alignment yesterday, tires in a few weeks. Gonna try and find a nice price on Firestone Winterforce 175/70-13s. Boy she runs good for the hard life she's had.
Tune-up on the '89. NGK plugs and wires, new cap/rotor, new pcv valve and fuel filter. Washed the air filter. Now to find enough time in Indiana to fix the fairly major oil leak.. job keeping me in hotels 20-24 days/month makes that fairly difficult.
