As mentioned earlier, the B6 engine was used in several cars by Mazda. The Oil Pump has a few holes/galleys/passages that are used in some, but not in others. We need to block one of these off. It's the dipstick hole for the 323F. A small blanking plug is coated in RTV, then pressed into place.

Also chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them.

While the main racing season usually concludes around late October to early November, that doesn’t mean that any and all opportunities to wheel the race car out of the garage one more time have dried up. Far from it, as there’s still one event that is the perfect chance for racers and petrolheads alike to celebrate the festive season in the best way possible – getting out on track!
Once again, the BRSCC is delighted to be at the helm of the car element of the annual Plum Pudding Races at Mallory Park, a traditional event that takes place on Boxing Day (December 26th) every year allowing some drivers and motorsport fans a great chance to indulge in their favourite pass time during Christmas!
There are separate grids and races for both saloon cars and sports cars respectively, but both play out a little differently than conventional race meetings. Unlike those in the regular season, there are no qualifying sessions here. Instead, the fastest race entry sets pole position rather than fastest lap time. So if you enter first, you get pole position for Race 1. The results of Race 1 then set the grid for the second race with the entire grid reversed to further enhance the action.
All race-ready sports cars and saloons cars are eligible to enter their respective races, with saloons cars ranging from Peugeot 206s, Ford Fiestas and Honda Civics, to Alfa Romeos, Ford Escorts, BMWs and VW Golfs. As for sports cars, you can bring vehicles such as Caterhams, Porsches, Radicals and other sports prototypes, Mazda MX-5s, TVRs and Lotus Elises. This really is an incredibly open contest, so as long as the car meets all the required Motorsport UK safety requirements, you’re in!
As is the tradition, the Plum Pudding meeting will also feature bike races organised by the East Midland Racing Association. More details can be found at https://www.eastmidlandracing.co.uk/.

Yes! With a two bumps on the inside. My instructor told me drive around the outside of the corner to avoid them - seemed to work.

Each piston is fitted with 5 rings - a top ring, a middle ring, and an oil control ring flanked by two, smaller control rings.
The top and middle rings cannot simply be fitted directly onto the piston without first measuring the 'end gap'. Each ring has an opening that must be a prescribed width when installed.
The first task is to fit the ring into the block
