maybe this is why i haven't blown my car up on a 75 shot yet then huh? ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif)
BTW i ran my quickest time ever with a CEL for there being no EGR at all...and with the secondaries pinned open.
i'm not gonna say what the time was cause even when i posted the timeslip no one seemed to believe me . just know it was my fastest .

My personal best is a 14.4, which I also had a CEL on.

Hm now I know what my car can run, thanks man. Wait was that with the O/D off or on? ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ponder.gif) Haha, sorry but I think the Zetec ATX can run a 1/8th mile time about equal to that.

I gave up on trying to fix my CEL. Same 2 damn codes and I cannot get rid of them.
Who wants to sell me a working complete fuel injector harness so I dont have to tear up my engine to find a couple messed up wires and probably not find anything?

Actually, that was with it on. I kept doing 18.9s and 19.1s with the O/D off, so I said screw it. I also revved it in neutral then down into drive at the launch. I'll grab my timeslips outta my car some other time and get ya all the #'s. It was a fantastic track too. I wanna try again once it gets cooler outside.

Might I suggest NEVER doing that again if you'd like to keep the tranny in one piece. The CD4E has enough problems as it is without neutral dropping it! ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif)

Yes, what Mark said. I learned not to do that with my old car (a beater 1989 Dodge Aries K) I used to neutral drop that car, and had the tranny slipping after a while of that and I NEVER do it in the Mystique I did it ONCE and I regret it. But NEVER do it again.
