Fixed the passenger side wet carpet problem. I can't believe the hose was so kinked. I used metal worm gear clamps to keep the tube open. Easy draining and snaking now. The lower pillar sagging upholstery was also pulled and fixed. The lower pillars look a lot better now.

Picked up the X. I’ve been traveling so there’s been no rush to get it back. The Indy I left it with thinks that the belt kit I used had the 4.4 belt in it, rather than the 4.6 belt. I overcame almost all of my normal ADD tendencies on this project, but dropped the ball by not checking the part numbers in that belt refresh kit. Lesson learned, the hard way!
At any rate it ran like a top on the way home and has a new radiator to boot. I went with the Nissens on his recommendation. He’s been seeing a fair number of Mahle’s fail prematurely over the past year or so. My goal is to upgrade to an all aluminum with an electric fan set up at some point. I think I dodged a bullet with the overheat, but time will tell. It ran strong yesterday, which is a good sign, and the mechanic thinks it’s fine. On to some interior work.

Noticed that the OBD2 port was not secure, while trying to attach the cable it just moved upwards so was unable to make the connection. Removed few dashboard panels and it turned out that the wire harness was not locked to its case. After some time I figured out how the locking mechanism works and reassembled the dashboard, always such a pain trying to line up all the pieces.
