I should have had a camera on me. The kid looks healthy, but remember he was bitching about that stuck fuel line nut a while back? Well, Neal grabbed Phil's nut like nobody has before and showed him how it was done. Not only did he bust Phil's nut (loose), he did it without breaking a sweat.

Good luck on your whole front timing assembly pal. I would've gone out to lunch with you, but I was an hour ad a half late to class and to top it off, I didn't have a work to show either. I was roasted for that one.

Pha-shizzle really should reconsider meeting us in Vegas.

[Be4u]

Dceptcn, I think he should too.

Whats up with Phils car???

[ledzeppac]

God damnit mother fucker

That fucking fitting would not come off and fucking Neal did it with one turn....

I used a whole can of Wd40
Broke one wrench.
Used Vice Grippes.
Used a flare wrench with copper piping to get more leverage.

And the asshole Neal does it in five seconds....

Hopefully my uncle can find time to let me use his garage this weekend to bust some of the shitout.

We dont really know whats going on with the car.  Could be valve srpings....  could be a cam lobe goign bad.

It drives well.  We took it for some little jaunts and all is ok jsut can't go into boost without 15Kr showing

[87natty]

No, I rode with him on a ride. I couldn't hear any, Neal barely heard a litle bit once, and we gave it to her pretty good for a good while.

[ledzeppac]

yup
Neal said he heard some when his foot was to the floor.   I didnt hear it that time.

But still the car doesnt want to make any power and shows 15 kr...

[DCEPTCN]

yup

Didnt you just put a new cam in?

I have a feeling that pretty soon your problems will be fixed.

Well think again.

No I didnt put the cam in.  I W A S planning on doing it this weekend at my uncles house where I work on the car.   Well he decided to act like a dear caught in the headlights and bitched out.  Something like, "I dont want to tear into your only car without someone that has worked on one before."  I was shocked when he said this! and Pissed.   We jsut finished a engine trans and front end rebuilt on a Bel Air.

Whatever.  I'm done trying.  

now I have to drive the POS for another 31/2 months till ANYTHING can be worked on.  

November
