I have a 97 Geo hatch, doing my first ever "DIY fixin'" (Rings, cylinder head rebuild). I really appreciate all your ideas on removing dodads that are not needed, or placed wrong (where they get in the way of normal service/experimenting)

Thank you for being you. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge and more importantly your words of encouragement to self doubters like myself. I'm excited every time I see an upload from you to learn something new of the possibilities of the Metro I inherited after my friend passed away. After bringing "Bucee" back to life (my friend named it after her favorite convenience store), it's been interesting to say the least with getting on freeways with a slight incline. Definitely watching this video several times to build the confidence to pull it off myself. Sincerely, thank you. Take care.

On those two absolutely miserable to get on/off or even move the TBI around while working cuz of them being so short, multi wire grounds on the back of the TBI... I clear heat-shrink butt soldered(the ones that just need a little heat, even a lighter will work)2 electrical connectors and makes it so much easier than fighting with those 2 lil 10mm (i think) bolts. If you don't have electrical connectors handy, you can just slightly slot the ground lugs so you can just loosing and slip in/out real quick. Ive had a few Geo's over the last several years and I wished I did that the very first time I took the TBI off. Just a simple little diy upgrade that I love. If you have issues getting on/off those grounds.

I’d LOVE to buy a Metro Convertible in good condition, low mileage, 5spd. I’ve owned a 94 and a 96. My 94 was the better of the two. I bought my 94 in November of 93. I put 210K miles in only 2 years. I had to drive from Salem, OR to LA California and back every weekend, (my weekends were 3says). I Loved how reliable it was.

I wonder how well you could make a ghetto fuel pressure regulator by putting a fuel filter on the return line. it should provide some resistance.

i'm going to do this mod to my g10A engine, i have a suzuki with a g10b engine, it's a alto , also called suzuki zen with a carb. im picking up a geo metro today, i want to swap that engine into the alto. it weights only 1500 pounds and the gearbox in it is a bit shorter than the geo metro, doing a carb swap and making a blow through setup with a amr 500 or a turbo would be quite unique in this car, no one has ever done a g10a swap before because most of them are going for 1.3 or 1.6 G series. But i'm crazy and i want to replicate a alto works in my own way.

This is soo helpful. My little lady came home with a custom off road buggy sporting a 91 geo 1L and the computer seems shot plus the wiring is a mess. So I’m hoping to go carb and reduce all the excess crap it has. What would you say I should do to it to get more than aka stage 1 out of it?
