Finally got the oil cooler housing re-installed. Hopefully I can get the car started in the AM to confirm that it was the problem causing the milkshake. Either way I needed to do the seals, next will be a head job if the milkshake doesn't go away.

Thanks, I just finished making a 'custom' wrench to tighten the oil cooler lines.

Thanks!
Man these kids are playing in front of my house each week nights, and 8am to 8pm every weekends.
I always park my P at the end of the drive way because of them : ) Don't want them to do some bad slapshots and puck my P.

Tightened a loose spark plug,
Replaced a lost nut and tightened the other two nuts on the passenger side collector flange,
reattached the exhaust to the rubber hanger,
straightened the muffler
tightened one of the shift linkage bolts that had loosened up A LOT, the shifter is so tight now, it's AWESOME!

I spent much of today looking for a double DIN stereo to install this summer, as well as trying to figure out the clutch problem that's been keeping me from driving. In less than 24 hours I get to go home and finally see what has been crippling my baby for the last 4 months I've been away from her!

installed foglight switch an a manual override for cooling fans. with the switch off the fans act normal, on the fans both go to max cool. it may not be needed, but my ac was completely removed and the switch was cheap.

found out that the relay that dings when the door is open is the same one that controls the seatbelt light (you can replace these bulbs too)
