Soon to tell.

Cell's flat, charging for a spell first, but could not put off to Wednesday, what I could do after 11pm tonight.

It did, and it does!

No fuel leaks or sweating anywhere, and 17" of cold vaccum.

Will fire it up in the AM, and see what it holds then..but..off to put on the last few coolant hoses..

The first thing off the car weeks ago:

Hose clamp off the radiator return line, at the water bridge neck.


Last thing to go on the car..the same.



Where the -hell- is the hose clamp??


Oh well, 4am, time for bed, so I can get up in 4hrs to go to work, to then bust out at 5..to come home and replace the hose clamp Ill buy over lunch.


Other than thaaaat...

Default Right on, SpeedWrench!

Man, talk about makin' your bones... pulling an all-nighter for that last wrenching frenzy enroute to the first start and BWAAHHHH. I'm impressed. And we were all idiots when we started loving these beasts, in more ways than one.
