Today I got the urge for a little time travel. Since my 84 resides in the man-cave with me I walked over and lifted the cover, opened the door and smelled 1984 with all it's good memories. Closed the door, dropped the cover and returned to 2019 until next time. Sadly the S2 shivers in the outside garage at 25 degrees this morning but Spring is just around the corner

Replaced camshaft & balance belts. First belt replacement for me and it was not difficult. Big thanks to Clarks Garage and Arnnworx tools; I could not have done without them. Also changed the clutch slave and master cylinders and both soft lines and the oil & filter with Mobil1 15W-50. Now she's ready for another year of not-so-much driving.

Ugh
Son came over yesterday to help with putting in new axles & CV’s. Had one bolt almost not make it out (stripped head). Then went to one of the new axles with CV’s attached and one the race is jammed, binding badly and one if the bearings out and deep in the boot.
Sigh
Replace today then install
What should’ve been a two hour job spent almost 5 on
On plus side, replacement will be here at noon

Replacing my original 31 year old 80k mile shocks on my 88 924SE. Used my old ones as a test run using the procedure :

I found my new ones have less adjustment turns...
