Re: pictures
Crazchino -- click on the pic, it will go to his web site. No, it's not a chick car. That's what I though when I first saw the car. I see it around town every now and then -- in Tigard, OR. I met the guy a year or so ago, and recommended he come visit mx-3.com. I'm glad he finally dropped in. I invi...

Re: klze stutter @ higher RPM's?
WTF is with the hole in disty idea - what a moronic idea. Thats what ignition timing is for How do you get a strobe to fire with spark anyway, without using a timing light? Since you've got your timing light out, just point it at the crank like a normal person. That will give you a freakin' degree ...

Re: klze stutter @ higher RPM's?
LOL It seems that everyone who's had their car behave in that manner ended up confirming it was an ignition issue. Fragz, how did you test your plug wires? So, this thread and other threads currently being discussed in the V6 forum about igintion issues has inspired me to break out the ignition boo...

Re: [Recovered] 1992 mx3 GS, Teal Blue
Okay, now get this-- that same guy was released, then he was arrested yesterday for attempting to steal a Mustang. How stupid can a person be? On trial for stealing a car, so he goes and tries to steal another...

If I don't recieve it by Thursday i'm going to be calling his local police station and post office. Paymen...

Re: klze stutter @ higher RPM's?
Nd4SpdSe -- seems like you are saying that the problem is over because -Night-Shade-'s problem is solved. I think this is great. However, this is Frag's thread, not Night Shade's. I hope you don't mind if we continue to try to hepo Fragz, so long as he still has a problem.

Re: idle is really high after going to a lube shop.

Re: klze stutter @ higher RPM's?
Another idea. If the total timing is too far advanced, then part of the spark could be heading down the wrong wire. That is, if the release from the coil occurs while the rotor is between two posts, some of the charge may be split between the posts. I only mention this because the problem manifests ...

Re: Idles good, but after revving, drops below idle & stalls
Have you checked the timing during this operation? My thought, just a suggestion, at idle, the vacuum advance sets advance. When you open throttle, the vacuum is equalized and the advance relies on mechanical advance. If the vacuum advance doesn't recover correctly -- when the throttle closes, and t...

OROutdoors' 1992 mx-3 GS 1.8L
I've owned this car for 3 years, got it in May 2007. I bought it from Steven Heller, who used to be on this board. I'm going to be doing some work on it soon, so I decided to start this work log. Since I bought it from Steve, I bought M3Girls' interior seats and panels. They look great. I removed th...

This is why you should always keep a box of donuts in the car. "Officer, I have a box of donuts here, or, maybe it was empty..."

Re: [Recovered] 1992 mx3 GS, Teal Blue
They caught a suspect. I have to testify before a Grand Jury today, as a witness. The kid was 18 years old. The DA is filing charges of Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle. I would have preferred Grand Theft Auto. I'll keep you informed.
