My car is "official", it's been on jack stands throughout the winter. I HAVE to replace that darned fuel pump and then hopefully it will run. I've wimped out on further progress due to the cold temps we've had over the last 6 weeks. I'm ready for spring!

well it's good to hear from everyone. though i see a negative theme here. with q-ball waiting for a new engine, turboman's car not starting, pete moving to live amongst the penguins and my engine smoking like the first 5 rows of a grateful dead concert, we now have a total of 0 running 914's in N.Y.C. i am depressed.
anyway.. what ever happened to LEO! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Sorry i didnt step in before a comment as such. My car is actually up and running. Drove it a few times over winter. New Years Day was real nice and then i drove it again twice in one week, the week before the snow came. I need to get a new battery, but thats really the extent of my issues with the motor. Still need to rebuild the rear calipers for some slightly better braking, but my race pads do a swell job of getting me back down to 0 even without the LR caliper working. _billy PS: also just bought a BMW F650 GS Dakar. So nice days are now split. |
