Oooo... I might do it if it's only 10 people on the list. How do you check the list?

Leo

The other organizer has the list. Actually, Doug Gale has the list and shares with the need to know people. If you wish to attend, show up, bring $ unless you have another in.

M20 is dying.

Every day I feel like its putting out less and less power. Yesterday I just filled it up with 1.5 quarts of oil at 4000 miles (which, coincidently, I'm due for an oil change sometime soon anyway). My previous M20 only burned oil at .5 quarts every 6000, which means im burning oil like a mother. Cold starts are something my car is m20 is not a fan of and it will stutter/bog whenever power is put down for the first few moments of taking off.


Sokay..

Thinking about refurbishing a budget 2.7i build and swapping out this tired m20. If I have to live with this m42-like power in an m20 weight car, I will not be enjoying my future with this e30. Sorry to blow you m42 guys out of the water, but 100whp sucks, period. I have to romp my car just to keep up to traffic. I'm thinking a 2.7i build wouldn't be to expensive and a reasonable swap by next spring.


NorCal (specifically Eriquex, the m20-god): any thoughts?

My M20 has always burned like half a quart every 3000 miles.
More if I'm romping on it.
I could say the same for cold starts. But I know I have both an intake & exhaust leak.
