    It seems to have wet plugs after starting on cyl 2&3, not that this is the culprit but surely doesn't help issues any. Don't drive the car yet needs a trans but can move her around in 1st and reverse. Changed the trans fluid and getting different feelings in each gear switching from A to M. Still think the clutches are fried. Really want to get a proper scanner before messing with it.

    Fun eh?

    Tremendous upgrade... quality kit and workmanship... lol! The sound made it feel faster no doubt-else they'd have put the factory one back. Probably back fired like a race-car for more fun :-) Check the coil packs and boots for condition- also by swapping and inspection for leaks, I had an OBD1 M50 with a bad ECU that wouldn't fire a coil or two once it warmed up- so swap out an ECU too, should you end up suspecting it. Welcome to M50 land, where even the clocks go slower... ;-)

    Could use new boots for sure but after a minute it seems to fire on all 5. Will dive deeper into it after the trans is replaced, which I might add is a biatch.
