The Kit has Arrived! :-D

yea first thing does anyong know what size shot the 47 jet gives? in the instructions it only went up to a 45 jet saying it was an 85 shot.

matt,

after you get your new plugs find somewhere to hit the nitrous safely ;) and right after you wind through a few gears pull over as soon as you can and pull the plugs to make sure you're not running rich/lean. this will atleast give you an idea if your running okay until you get a dyno tune.

Just bought the plugs.. I pulled out the spark plug wires and the thing they sit and and i came on the board to try and figure out how to get the spark plugs out. I called a couple shops and they were out of nitrous.. I went down to one that was about 45 minutes away and their cylinder was full of compressed air instead of nitrous so they told me they would give me a call after they got a new cylinder in (today around 2)

*from what i've read changing my plugs is going to be a b*tch.. i don't have the 200+ tublar manifold. Oh well.. I will get it done [img]smile.gif[/img]

F*CKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK KKKKKKK
THE SPARK PLUG SNAPPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!
BELOW THE HEX NUT SON OF A B*TCH!!!!!!!!

This is going to cost a fortune no way in hell am i going to get that b*tch out i can't believe this sh*t

I called about 5 shops and they're all backed up atleast 2 weeks. The one guy told me my best bet is to take a flat punch knock out the porcelin, spray penetrating oil in the plug, use a torch to heat up the plug and put an extractor in it and pray that it comes out otherwise I will need to pull apart the f*cking head.

I am going to wait for my step dad to get home before I even try to tackle this.. he is going to be pissed off but he ran a garage for over 10 years so he may be my best bet right now.

that like sucks and stuff :eek:

[pumm3l]

man matt, ur just not having any luck. what kind of material is the inside of the spark plug, I assume it's not porcelin all the way to the electrode or is it? If it's not you can try using an easy out to back the rest of the plug out.

[pumm3l]

oh matt I looked up that .047 jet, apparently you're running a 100 shot.

try nedle nose on the plug pu them in hold the open as best you can and turn

my brother went under the car for 2 minutes and came out with the plug and porcelin tip :D I am taking my car down to midas to let them do the rest of the plugs that way if it snaps off they have to deal with it. I guess with the right tools and mechanical skills its not to difficult to get one of those out.

I ran a 100 shot in my car.. crap! I am calling NOS tomorrow and asking why they didn't include a 75 shot it said right on the kit it would come with a 75 and 100.

Even if you were running a 100 shot jet, you weren't actually pushing a 100 shot, because there's no way your bottle was up to pressure without a heater. But anyway, buy some smaller shots before you keep spraying, I started with a 50 which i think is a 32 jet (I'll have to check up on that).

[Matt G]

I wanted to start out with a 75 shot and build up to a 100 shot eventually. I won't be spraying until I get my 75 jet. I am calling tomorrow about the missing jet.

My adapter for the FPSS should be coming by monday. So hopefully I can get that hooked up along with the bottle heater.

[kristen]

dude your nuts.

you really need to start with a 50 shot. your really pushig it starting with a 75 or even a 100 shot. just something to think about

So how'd he get it out? Just for future reference WHEN I eventualy snap one off in there heh.

[Matt G]

some how he pulled out the porcelin.. no idea how he did it.. then he used an extractor set screwed it into the metal part of the plug and it came right out.
