Back to the grind.

All in all half way productive staycation. Waited on a oil cooler line that wasn't correct to my 9C1 kind a sucked. And I'll have to sort that out later.

Replaced the Throttle Body Sensor and Idle Air Control made my ride sun much smoother with more "oomph". No longer has the shakes from the rough idle at the stop like I got Parkinson's.

Got a Throttle Body Plate gasket like the ones I remember with a full rubber and not some cut out to death jig saw paper mess that I don't know what it does. Sure don't seal with a damn. Just needs to punch out a hole they missed. I think some dude in the garage cutting and punching these out.

After seeing inside the Intake Manifold I'm not sure if she'll pass smog. I imagine my heart is like that. All black and gummy with pork fat. I'll run her as is to see if she'll pass. If not pay to have Motor Vac done. I may do the spray in SeaFoam to loosen up the gunk. I saw that at AutoZone while looking for Barryman Chemtool.

I wonder if I won the Power Ball? If I did I may not have to go back to work. Actually I'll need some time to lawyer up and come up with a shell company so no one will know if I did win.

    Well did the 9C1 pass? Fuel cleaner, Disconnect battery, reconnect, hammer down. On the highway on ramp.[;)]

    Missouri Mule K30 - "Well did the 9C1 pass? Fuel cleaner, Disconnect battery, reconnect, hammer down. On the highway on ramp."

    Haven't taken her to smog yet. Need to clean a few things and change out the plugs. I need to get that damn "stubby" socket wrench.

    What does the battery have to do?

    Oh, she goes like she only has 100K miles instead of 300K like she does [:D]. Idle when first started seems to be high and now she creeps up hill when I let off the brakes. She just wanna go.

    I was cleaning up the shop and had half a can of Berrymans and half bottle of Marvel Mystery Oil.I use them both for fuel treatment so got the bright idea of pouring the Berrymans into the bottle of Marvel just to save a little space.I found out why Berrymans in in a metal can because next day the 50/50 mix had melted the plastic Marvel bottle.
