I'd posted my engine cleaning last week & was pounced upon by quite a few to pull the tin & clean deeper.
Well, I did and went even further. I'm not totally finished puting it back together. Got the wiring done and the ECU polished & painted (those little boxes really shine when a wire brush wheel touches them)!!! Got new "L" brackets for mounting it to the fire wall. Re-adjusted the TPS. Cleaned ground contacts, throttle body and wiring harness. Re-routed harness to a cleaner hidden look (not in these pics tho). So, anyway, couldn't spend all day on the car today since it's our anniversary so it might be running by Tuesday. Got a puppy class to go to Monday (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Gotta say tho, shore looks diff'rint (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif) .......b Attached image(s) |

That's the ticket! It was really easy right? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif)
I don't know what this is supposed to be, but it came up on google searching for "Happy Anniversary". (IMG:http://www.cathe.com/greeting_card/Anniversary_3.jpg) |

Rattlecan Bill. Went to the FLAPS and picked up some hi-temp stuff (500 degrees). 4 - 5 coats later......
BTW, I got MOPAR Orange and Chevy Orange.... My Gawd what a difference (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) Went with the Chevy Orange. Next time I do anything like this it will be on a pulled engine. I gots bruises & sore spots all over me front & side from lean'n thru the top (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) ........b |
