    new paint job

    ask lots of questions,like what type of base coat/clear coat they use(DuPont is the choice of many expert painters)...tell them you don`t want to see orange peel,but you do want the base to be put on fairly thick(this is the mark of a good painter)...and you don`t want to see "fish eyes",which...

    How much ATX fluid?

    The Automatic in a 95 SHO 3.2 holds 12.25 quarts(11.6 litres)total when completely empty...you should put in 7 and then start checking from there....

    Getting Really MAD

    I only use Black Magic Tirewet foam! That`s right,i spray it everywhere on the engine and in the engine bay,leave it for 10 minutes and voila,everything is clean and the silicone in it shines (and protects)everything under the hood,even your wires!

    Do SHO's run a hole in your pocket book!?

    IMHO the SHO is just as reliable as most high perf.cars...the trick is when something does need to be repaired or replaced,take advantage of the situation and fix it with better,upgraded parts,many of which are available from sponsors of this site wink

    What Made the Original Yamaha Design 300HP?

    Spark Plug Info

    nothing wrong with Autolite`s,especially the double platinums!....autolites usually come with the rings loose in the box,install them and then gap from .042 to .046...best to gap at .044...

    Part throttle Air/Vacuum sound

    After enlarging the airbox cutout,removing the silencer cone and installing a K&N i had the same noise...i don`t think the IAB is involved as i serviced mine when i port and polished the intake,this was all done at the same time...the noise diminishes when the engine warms up..i can`t figure it...
