(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I'll be gripping a steering wheel tomorrow so 6 weeks will be nothing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) I am more worried about running my fingers into the console while shifting than gripping the wheel.

I found a couple of small cracks in the plastic intake snorkel...probably not even all the way through but can't take a chance. Waiting for the epoxy to dry. It's killing me. Should be another hour or so. |

Should be another hour or so. Is the glue dry yet? Is it running yet? Come on we need an update! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Yep it started! I just got done with it 10 minutes ago and I started it...it ran like crap. Then I came inside and stewed and then remembered that I moved the wires around for the injectors so they would be more secure...and did not reconnect 2 of them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) . It seems to run better on all 6. Sorry I can't post a vid tonight (new neighbors with very young ones. Tomorrow morning driving vid!

I think he made a number of changes so anything is possible. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Whatever it is he'll work it out. I just want for him to feel "the power" for once.

Wow what a long walk ! What day is it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ?
Nah not really it rained most of the afternoon. Had to head out early this morning and couldn't even drive it. Streets just dried out. Video is uploading! 20 minutes and it should be ready. It's not very exciting but it's a video. |

Overall yes definitely. It runs a lot better. Way more responsive. The engine fits a lot better in the car. Still have a minor issue with low idle but I think I just need a new MAF. Meant to order one anyway.

Finally!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xAJjwLiMmU You'll notice the temps edged up to 190 near the end. there was an air pocket in the system that eventually worked its way out. Added almost a half gallon of coolant when it cooled down. Once it's air-free it stays around 180 or so. |
