i hear you on the creature comforts part. right after i rip out my perfectly fine ac for the v6 it looks like this summer is gonna be stupid hot. already had a high of 96 i think it was today.

Get the windows tinted or drive highway speed with them down. What did they used to call that? 60-4 A/C? 60mph with all 4 windows down. LOL

[FE3-323]

i'll trade your 96° for low 50's & pissy drizzly rain all day long

thats what I've always done. I don't mind no a/c except in stop and go traffic. then it sucks.. lol

[shorestiva]

Just take the cap off the evap line from the tank. That's what I did with my stubs when I removed all id that junk. Drove it for a year with no problems like that.

Yea if you removed your charcoal canister and capped off the line you'll run into a few issues. The charcoal canister is there to filter the fumes from the gas tank...not really a bad thing to have lol, it'll smell like gas fumes if you don't.

Sometime when i fill my tank i get the high pressure also.

my clutch bracket for some reason wants to tighten itself as i drive more and more, eventually causing my clutch to start slipping. i think ill put some loctite on it to take care of the nut tightening.

Use a lock-nut, thats what i did other than that, hows the bracket working out for you? everything feel ok in the pedal?

well im used to not having a/c so i didnt use it much anyway. it was just a nice option to have, especially with the girlfriend. blah blah its hot, etc....lol

yeah it feels good, almost stock. was kinda hard at first but getting pretty easy once its breaks in. only thing is like i said its causing my clutch to slip. it needs to be loosened considerably. also still needs greasing. hopefully it didnt glaze the disc since its still in break in period..


on a side note i just filled up my tank today and removed the nipple for the breather. we will see what mpg is looking like in a few days. $25 for 9.2 gallons.

[nerd racing]

what fuel grade are you running?

[CaymenEGT91]

for the record the best i ever got out of my mx6 was 18mpg combined city/hwy

[monoxidechild]

ouch! turbo 1st gens with mods get better then that.

[Mazda_Powered]

yea my 626 blows for fuel economy unless its highway driving.

[DeeAOne]

what fuel grade are you running?

regular 87.

[nerd racing]

try a mid grade and see if that gets it up there. some cars are designed to run a little higher octane. I'm gonna do a couple tank runs and compare the three grades if I ever get it going.

[Damkid]

^^My 300ZX says right on the fuel gauge, premium unleaded fuel only, so maybe the KLDE is supposed to run on higher octane, i know my ZE is, so i'll be running premium in my car all the time
