Reminds me of my first drive in my 2g, but I only put a peep hole in it, you have a bay window!!!

had to pull my thermostat housing as it had a small crack I didn't notice till we started to put fluids in. Hoping tomorrow I will be able to take it out and put some miles on her. Feels good to know shes alive. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Got to let the car run today. Discovered a few oil leaks. Looks like I will have to pull the timing cover to figure out where my leak is coming from.

 

[Boostdtalon]

So i'm pretty sure that it's my plug for the balance shaft thats leaking. So gonna pull the timing cover today and see if thats it.

I was going to but the wife told me to keep it and finish it. Now that Im done with school and going back to work. I will be able to get things done on this car without taking too long. How's your car coming? Was digging the pics you put on facebook.

 

[Terrance362]

time and money. I will post some new pics soon. Iwill have the chassis work done and then off to paint.

 

[Boostdtalon]

Yeah I know that feeling. Well I still have a oil leak I can't find. I suspect its the crank seal. It only leaks while the car is running. I'm running short on time so I'm taking my car to a friend to have him sort the leak.

Let me know what it is when u find out because I too have a leak that I can't find either. When the car is idling I don't see any leaks and its not burning any oil and the compression is perfect but after about a week of driving it gets a court low. So let me know if this is the same for u because I'd Like to know what this is aswell

Yeah I will. I towed my car to my friends shop today to get him to track down the leaks.
