You may know that Im an impulsive idiot that recently bought a PFM, It turns out Im also a lucky idiot as I have also met a former Formula driver (Ford) that is going to help me get up and running in a safe manner. We are going to the track this Saturday and the plan is just to start up the PFM, run it through its gears and figure out what it needs then get familiar with the track in a Miata.
I have a couple of basic question to the group here that could help me prep for first engine run and drive train check.
1. What engine oil do you use in your car? (not everyone on the internet seems to agree although is seems synthetic should be avoided).
2. Do you add any kind of oil or additive to the gas?
3. Have you run your car on 93 octane (i know 100 octane is the recommended but some folks on the internet seem to run on 93)
4. The pictured fitting seem loose on the drive shaft (i was able to wiggle it louse by hand) is this something to worry about?
