My house, 10AM.

Anyone who doesn't have plans is invited. JR is bringing his car over to get the tie rods installed and the front end Toe alignment set, and Dagdal1967 is bringing his car over to install the Stainless fuel lines so we can put the FI back on it in a future tech session.


If you want to come, bring chairs and any beverages you may want. I have a fridge to put them in.



RSVP me and I will send you the address and directions.

JR thinking..that's got to hurt

fuel lines can be installed without dropping the engine, you just have to remove the shifter

I won't say whether the tank was Male or female, but I had a smile on my face, so to SOME of you that should be a clue!!!

Thanks Clay & Betty for all the help and the pizza for lunch.

Not only did we install the fuel lines and get all of that hooked up, but we managed to identify that the shift bushings (The one that sits at the fire-wall) has slipped out of its seat. Man what a difference that made to have it put back to where it belongs.

I'll be looking for a set of bushings so we can do a full replacement. Then we'll need to re-adjust the shifter. It's a little hard to find 4th gear on a downshift right now.

THANKS AGAIN!!!

Doug
