Default Finished the TB and WP today

Three days, not too bad. Replaced the TB, WP, rebuilt the Tensioner, found a ground issue, fixed an oil leak, fixed a vaccum leak, changed all the filters, oil and replaced the rotor caps and rotors. I think with all the other work that has been done she should be mechanically up to date. Going to do the rear axle rebuild in a couple of weeks. Transmission has been rebuilt, torque tube rebuilt, motor mounts new, oil pan gasket replaced ( cork ), new shocks, new brakes. Also did some cleaning and stripped and polished the strut.

You mean you didn't snap any water pump bolts? Too bad.

Congrats. You've done more work on your car than I've done on mine in 11 years.

I think the TB and WP had already been done, but had no proof so better to be safe than sorry. Thanks, Jack

Jack,
+1 on Bill's and Stan' s comments, you have also done more work on your car that what I have done in 11 years, but I have only 102,000 kilometres on mine (55,000 since my ownership) whereas Bill has done a few more miles than me.

Well done.
