From my understanding you gap them closer in when you push more boost. If you don't it causes it to run rich and you get spark blow out. I read a number some where on here of .19

.019 is very close for small amount like 17psi . I run .025 at ~18-20psi (as do most under 2 bar)

You were probably having misfire issues. 025 is as small as I'd go.

Should have called Erie, they'll cut pig tails for stuff like that.

This really wasn't a big deal, not sure why I didn't do it right away. Basically I just soldered 2 short wires w/ spade connectors crimped on them to each of the 2 prongs on the switch, then put heat shrink tubing over the soldered connections. Now if I ever need to unplug it again, I just do it at the spade connectors I put on the ends of the leads.

Today I thought I had everything I needed to fix my parking brake. One of my cables was froze and that side was missing all the ebrake parts inside the drum. I finally got everything I needed to replace all the parts, but I only bought the one cable that was froze. When I unhooked the froze cable and pulled the ebrake handle, the other cable broke :angry: . So tomorrow I'll be ordering another parking brake cable, then everything related to back brakes/parking brakes will be new.

Started out with just coolant hoses all around, thermostst, coolant res, plugs, o2 sensors and a oil change. That turned into a radiator, thermostat housing, trans flush and a snabb pipe.

I'm fucking wiped out

I literally have not washed my car once since AT LEAST before Thanksgiving. There has been absolutely no point to wash it around here. By the time the roads dry up we get more snow and then it's back to salt spray.
