Well, it certainly was a long weekend. I'm glad to get back to work, so I can get some rest. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I worked on the /6 this weekend with Pam's help. Accomplished: - Underside of floorboards scrubbed clean with drill and wire wheel. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) - Inside floorboards scraped all the tar and cleaned. - Painted top and bottom with POR-15. - Installed Bill Greenway's trunk shock kit. - Replaced speedo angle drive. - Rebuilt pedal cluster, painted with POR-15. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) - Painted pedal board. - Replaced bushings in 914/6 throttle linkage. - Replaced fuel lines with steel in center tunnel, cleaned under the gas tank. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif) I found a few rust spots... So there's a bit of welding in my future. The bushings in the pedal cluster and throttle linkage were absolutely non-existent. Because of the new bushings, I had to readjust the clutch and throttle. They're still not perfect, but it's driveable. I was just too tired to screw with it anymore. After all this work, especially to the throttle and pedal cluster, the car drives completely differently. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) -Rusty |

Maybe Ill try something fancy like Jeroen Yeah, it was good to get back to work so I could get some rest.
