Thanks...

http://hondaswap.com/northeast/april-24th-453630/12.html#post1620540

register on Hondaswap and add your info, it will make it easier for me to look at my iphone right when I buy all the stuff tomorrow around 12ish in NJ. 2-5 minutes of your time might make me save $20 bucks or spend $20.....

Thank you.

Well the Z is still having the same problem. The new tps seemed to help but it's got to be fuel pump problem. So I don't think I should drive all the way to Meriden unless you think you'll have time to take a look at it.

I can peak at it, and if I can't find the problem, there will be about 20 other car mech's there that might try to find something to save face....


one thing that you need to really spend money on is AAA+...$110 a year...free towing...any car, anywhere......anytime....


come, get drunk, call them...they tow you home if you remove the coil plug wire and they don't see it... :wink:

The car will make it just have to keep shutting it off and on to reset the problem. So I'll be there. Got an extra fuel pump? :)

This waz a good time. Lots of Z-friendly motorheadz there and as always, good food in abundance. Saw many Club members and waited as long as I could for Al to find the right exit, then I had to boogie. Good to watch Vinny Bedini just SIT for more than a full minute and simply relax ~ that's the first time I've seen him do that since I've known him.

AJ's driveway and "back 40" were full of carz, his patio should be considered "finished" and successful, and I'm not sure how he intends to eat all the food that was there. Lots of pretty girls there, too! 8)

There was some kind of family day going on in the park near AJ's house, so traffic became intense (and slow) about 4 blocks from his house. Cars were parked on both sides of the street in every direction, and people were walking toward the park (which also happened to be toward AJ's house), pushing baby strollers, carrying blankets, etc. Cops had several side streets blocked off and it flashed thru my mind that AirJockie must have REALLY advertiZed his big event this year, and it was gonna be bigger than Woodstock '69! :shock:

I was relieved when I got to his house and actually found a parking space. His couple-doZen guests would have seemed like a lot under other conditions, but compared to the nearby park event, his yard looked like a safe haven from the the crowd.

Thanks AJ, it was fun and good to see all the Zs and Clubbies again. Good event! :wink:

Frank

PS ~ THANKS, MadLarkin, for the much-appreciated spare partz!

Sorry I had to leave early. Enjoyed visiting members and seeing new faces. Thanks to AJ for great food and use of the battery to jump my Z. Al had a good one asking if "I was enjoying walking my battery ? " as I lugged AJ's to my dead soldier. Was able to make it home and got a new battery in the car this morning. All is well is Z Land 8)

Had a great time, unfortunately had to leave earlier than I had wanted. Either I stayed well into the morning and woke up in a puddle, or went back to Megan's before she went to sleep. Wish I had been able to stay longer and enjoy the food and sake, but I had a great time regardless.
