Greetings everyone!
I’m getting a jumpstart on a thread to chronicle my engine rebuild. A lot of you have been helpful, gracious and amazingly patient with my wandering of threads, queries and ideas since I joined this Forum. And I thank you ALL for that. Truly.
So here’s where I’m at so far:
12/2: dropped car off at FTK so they can pull the motor.
12/4: motor and trans pulled. Trailered car home. Drank beer to guise the “gutted” feeling I felt for my car!
12/5:taped off exhaust tips, coil, electrical connectors under hood; sealed exhaust tubes to keep unwanted visitors out for the next 6-8 weeks; pressure washed under hood. Will start checking bushings, etc this afternoon once dry.
