I adjusted the clutch (hadn't tightened the jam nut on the master cylinder and I think the piston rod had rotated and shortened). Then I warmed it up and went for a tuning drive... I really wish I had an airport runway to drive on. 4000 rpm in 4th is 80 mph and it's just up on the cam then. Lower gears accelerate too fast to get steady readings on the AFR and vacuum gauge (besides, I have to be looking at the road!)
Also, I had been hearing a scraping noise from my left front brake (although it has always stopped straight). Figured it was just surface rust from sitting for long periods. I shouldn't admit this in public, but I'd put the inside pad on backwards so the metal back was against the rotor :eek: There is some scoring on the rotor, not surprisingly, but I just flipped the pad around and put the caliper back on. It still stops straight and fast but now the scraping is gone. That's about the second most dumbass thing I've done on this car! :rolleyes:
