So saturday morning I get the good idea that I'll jack the car up on the street and do a valve adjustment. I get the thing up on jack stands and try to pull the valve cover wires down. Blegh, I can't reach so I'll just take the exhaust off to reach it.
Well, that wasn't a good idea. Needless to say cars kept zooming up and down the street (little rice burners) and almost hitting me, thought for a second this might not be a good idea. So i start putting the nuts for the exhaust back on. I guess the exhaust tubes didn't set into the heads right, cause now I have a small exhaust leak on 3 and 4. Oh wells. I'll pull into the garage and do it right today. Boy oh boy I love doing things twice. |
