    Back to one of your videos lol. Got some apex wheels for my base 500 and would like to flush the fronts a bit more with the fender. Due to the hub centric lip on the hub, my spacer options are 5MM or 10 or so and above. To use 12Mm and clear the hub’s centric lip, I know I need extended studs. ( which would look great ). Do you think 12MM spacers and CFTP studs would be enough? Thanks in advice Tim!

    You’ll have to do the math Badger. It’s been a few years since I did this. You need to have sufficient threads remaining (lug nut turns). I don’t recall the number… maybe 9…? We have 150 lb ft on the nuts. Don’t short yourself.

    @@ShelbyFlyer yea I saw some of the stuff you and the others guys posted on the Forums and I think using CFTP rear studs might be the way to go. They’re approximately 17MM longer than the base front studs, so 17-15 (using 15MM spacer) leaves me with 2MM extra of turns, just gotta make sure the lug nut doesn’t bottom out but it should be fine.

    Curious what you thought of this track. I was there couple weekends ago and ran a 2:49:9 for my first time there. I honestly didn't really like it. Almost too much elevation upsetting the car all the time. Way too many barriers with no run offs in the important areas. No water drainage so parts of the track are wet the entire day. It was awful towing there as well. Don't really have any desire to go back.

    Thats not showing full rich, 20 is full lean. Or 2.00. Thats just what happens when you let off the gas. The car will go full lean so it doesnt backfire and pop as the revs come down. You really need to get an HP Tuners setup so you can log the car in real time. The dealers are just parts swappers. Get an MPVI3 from Hp Tuners and get VCM scanner and a laptop. Then you will really know whats going on. Not this dealer guess and swap thing they do.

    Nice video. I'm sure that it will help some other people with the same issue. One point of clarification. For air fuel ratios, a higher number is leaner, not richer. So when you see the gauge going up to 20, that is full lean, not full rich. This makes perfect sense for a misfire from a bad coil wire, because if there is no spark to light the fuel then the exhaust will be full of unburned oxygen which the oxygen sensor will report as lean. Also, to protect the catalysts for warranty the PCM will reduce power and lean the fuel when it detects a misfire to protect the cats from having raw fuel light off inside the cat and melt it.

    I can say that intermittent issues can cause you to lose your mind trying to find them. Unfortunately, patience from people with the issues is rarely found. Wiring/pin issues have to be traced out. Having Carey do the work is a smart move, as I worked with him. He knows where to look and I trust him totally when it comes to my own car. If I need him, I know where to find him.
