    I know what your all thinking, ol Monkey Pants is back in jail and his car was seized by the feds. Simply not true, what’s really happened is I have to much work, some days I go almost 5 hours. I didn’t get into my line of work to work, what are you going to do..... ok I’m stalling.... I’ve gone full traitor. The Red Menace is still in pieces. Knowing I’m in the procrastination boat, I accidentally bought a Poorshhh Cayman S with all the goodies so I can at least tell people my other cars a Ferrari, they act impressed until they ask which one, it’s always aww oh Magnums car. I really need to apply myself and get to it

    I had a bumper sticker on my Ferrari that said “my other car is a Honda”

    Vincent van Gogh’s last name is correctly pronounced “van Gakh” as in “loch.” I don’t think I’ll change.

    The marketring people have also recently put a “u” in the middle of Jaguar. Jag-you-wire? Did I get that right?

    If you wanna buy a car, buy a Jag.

    Blood sacrifice is due on any project larger than an oil change. Well done. It will all work perfectly. And as long as you've already done the blood thing why not go in there and clean the schmutz from the runners. ;-)

    Some people will try anything to make sure a Ferrari doesn't leak. ;)

    Scott, while you have everything apart we should put the fuel distributor/WUR on the test bench and confirm that port flows are appropriate and cold/warm control pressures are where they should be. Image Unavailable, Please Login

    Ettore, your K-Jet testing set-up is seriously cool. I have a 911SC with K-Jet that runs beautifully, despite what all the naysayers claim. Kind regards, John/CT

    I’m back in action, got a little sidetracked, spent 3 nights putting the machine back together, I found one of the 5 oil leaks under the oil filter base, I spent forever trying to scrape the dead gasket off but triumphed, forgot to snap pix so maybe it never happened, took it for a spin today in the rain for first time in a year, almost forgot how to drive it now that I shift a poorshhh from time to time, got it back to base and the horrible oil leak is in the valley next to filter base, poke around and find the culprit, it’s the damn oil sensor on filter housing, it’s coming through the middle somehow right under blade connector. Stupid Ferrari
