As you guys may recall back a few months ago I put in new pushrod tube seals to cure my car's typhoid exxon-valdez. Well, it's had another outbreak and it doesn't seem to be any easier to do this time than last time.

So, i figure what I'll do is get the really soft rubber oil cooler seals, a new seal that goes between the sheet metal and oil cooler on top, the mallory unilite I've been pining over, a new oil pressure sender and the extension needed when running a unilite, new heater control cable and my prepped-and-painted passenger side heater flapper box (thanks claytonnovich!). Once everything's ready I'll announce a work party date then drive down to skline's with a small furniture dolly and some of my tools.

Shortly thereafter I (and hopefully with the assistance of some fellow wrenchers) will pull the engine and transmission. Then we can go to town on the engine... Pull the impeller and housing, passenger side engine tin, oil cooler, distributor, pressure sender, oil filter. Once the passenger side of the engine is naked it'll get a vigorous spray down and scrubbing with engine cleaner, then a final rinse and prep for reassembly.

Once i get the parts I'll announce the date. I'm pretty close to getting the unilite (money wise) so we'll see hopefully in the next two or three weeks.

It just never ends! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)
