I will never knock USPS shipping again. Starter was shipped last night at 5pm and just showed up at my door. Pretty suprised as it was supposed to be delivered Monday. Now to install it.

Very nice.

Got my car started finally. It's running rough and very rich at idle (10.2-11.0), and I stalled it once at a light on the drive home. Gonna do a boost leak test tomorrow and check the plugs, hopefully it's just a little boost leak.....

Your fighting the same battle as most of us are, we just dont have the market up here like in lower 48. I have had 2 tuners up here try to tune it and both turned out rather rough. Better off getting a remote tune or something. Good Luck and what are you doing to your X
