Default PASSED!!!

Update. Swapped out my EZK and LH thismorning with the one that Rixter had sent and immediately at the 02 sensor readings fluctuated +/- 0.45 or lower.

So off to the testing center I ran.


PASSED all #'s were below limits.


So a replacement LH has been ordered. 2 years before I have to get this tested again but at least I now have a basepoint AND everything is new and shiny..

Now it's time to give her a nice wash and rub down to tell her it was all worth it.

Congrats! Just in time to enjoy the beautiful weather.

BTW, someone recommended Snickersville Turnpike as a good P-car road. I think it's out your way. Are you familiar with it?

Glad that worked out.

I get to drive my car for the first time since last August in less than a week! Wahoo! In a little less than 3 I'll have it back here in VA!

Then it will be time to prep for SITM!

I am happy that I have a baseline for the car now,

I went thru the reciepts agan tonight to clean things up so that I didn't have to clutter my glovebox. I haven't spent a lot getting the '88 back up tp snuff and I have met some good people that I would call friends.

Thanks again everyone for the hard work!

Now, I guess to put everything back together and make sure that there are no missing nuts, washers and bolts.

Great Michael! I could not make it back again after your initial tear down on the top side of your engine. But, I have been following this thread. I am happy you had a successful outcome. And once again Rixter and others from the Rennlist community comes out to help.

Finally as promised here are some pics since I had a chance to clean her up a bit.

Rixters EZK and LH are on their way back to him and my rebuilt is in and running like a charm. Thanks again everyone for your help.









Larger sizes of the pics are in my gallery.
