You guys are cracking me up! I did my first 1974 Porsche 2.7 engine rebuild on the kitchen table when I was married to my first wife. And had both my cars in the garage over the Winter while hers had to sit in the driveway...hmmm...I wonder why she left me?
On a more positive note, all my error lights are gone! I flipped a coin last weekend and bought the rear left ABS sensor and popped it in and the lights were gone immediately. Got my speedo, DSC, ABS, and MPG gauges back and no problems since.
Idle is still a little rough but only on the really cold days. We've had some warmer days here and it hasn't been an issue, although I think Santa is bringing me a new Oil Separator and all new vacuum lines
I still have yet to install the valve cover gaskets that have been burning a hole in my workbench for a few weeks now, but maybe this weekend I'll grab a case of Guinness and knock it out.
Next project is gonna be the power steering R&R...the whining noise is driving me crazy, but still drives fine once it's warmed up. Plus the less-than-Cadillac-like steering is doing wonders for my biceps.
