Ok, I'll get the coolant and brake cleaner and I have all the other stuff that Bill mentioned. Count me in as a wrench turner!!!

Also, I've found little hands (like mine) are often helpful (ok guys, don't get dirty on me here - you know what I mean)

I better review the TB guide - again!

Beth, maybe you could consider a salad, even though Ron's not coming. My favorite cookies are the Costco chocolate chunk, but if you get those you better hide most of them.

I'll bring my weed wacker and other fuse panel/electrical-related tools.

Also, you will need to catch splashing coolant, whether you drain the block or not.... be sure you have a suitable container to catch it. I found a 5 gallon bucket sufficient when draining the block, but if you just let it spill when pulling the WP you will need a much wider container.

Some Anti-seize would be a good thing to have on hand as well.

Cool! The back yard needs some work!!!

Salad and cookies are now on the menu.

And I'll get the other stuff you mentioned.

Oh, be sure to get some distilled water too. If changing coolant type get about 8 gallons; that way you can flush the system a few times with tap water, once with distilled water, then fill appropriately. If you just want to change coolant 4 gallons is plenty. Reccomendations are all over the map; I used 1 gal. DexCool, one bottle Redline water wetter and ~3 gallons distilled water.

Hey Dave - no word from Nicole yet so can you bring yours? I'd rather end up with 2 sets than none.

Of course "T", you can attend. The more the merrier!!!

No Broken Water Pump Bolts, No Broken Water Pump Bolts, No Broken Water Pump Bolts . . . . . . .

I think next week I'll take another head count - need to make sure there's enough food and drinks, can't let you guys get hungry . . . . . .

So here is the list of parts in my "TB replacement kit" by Susan at Devek:

Water Pump (new - not reconditioned)
Waterpump Gasket
Timing Belt
Inner piston seal
boot clamp
oil pump o-ring
front main seal
oil pump bolt o-ring (3 of these)
dipstick seal
belt tension wire
gasket, tensioner housing
tensioner cap
tensioner roller (2 of these but different part #'s)
bearing for 928.105.067.00/01

So I hope (and pray) you guys know what all this stuff is. . . . . .

Hi Beth:

I can certainly bring my fender covers. But it might be a good idea to remind me the day before the party...

Also, did we set a time? I know you guys like to start right after midnight. Remember that Dave and I have between 1.5 and 2 hours driving time to your house (depending on how badly we want speeding tickets)
