Here's the filter and some oil from the initial startup. I might cut open the filter and check for crud.

Time for some more holes! This hole in the right engine shelf is for the O2 sensor cable. I am trying to follow the logic of where cables and hoses go, along with disconnects, so that the engine can drop in the future with minimal fuss.

Have I mentioned that my speed cable is about 1.5 inches too short? I need to create more slack from the cable run under the dashboard.

Before I forget, I refilled the crankcase. More break-in oil, SAE 30.

Next task: the speedometer cable. When I installed the cable in the interior, I did not leave enough projecting from the fire wall to reach the angle drive on the transaxle. Looking under the dash, I ran the cable straight forward from the gauge.

Once I removed the pedal board and pulled the carpet partly off the front firewall, I changed the route of the cable and fed excess into the tunnel.

Now, another problem. The cable retaining nut does not want to screw straight onto the angle drive.

I spent almost an hour on this. First I chased the threads, but no luck. Then I used my Dremel to chamfer the first threads in the cap and on the angle drive. I got it started straight, and it held for about two turns--yay! But as I screwed it tight, it cocked twisted again. Fudge!

I will probably hold just fine, but this will bother me and my OCD.

With the speedo cable attached, I bundled it with the O2 cable and the clutch cable, and used some plastic cable cover. I want to get some high-temp wrap over this.
