Spark plugs are changed.
Intake manifold is almost ready to go back on. I need to swap out the injector clips then I'll be set.
Then I have to install the TGV motor and sensors on the new adapters. I think I gotta break open the harness to get the wires to where they have to go.
Soggy: I have gaskets. I'm not taking this thing off again.....ever.

Car has been running fine excpet for an issue with warm starts. I thought if I actually got around to putting in the new fuel pump things would clear up. They didn't.
Stock injectors are back on. Now I'm diagnosing a #4 misfire. Bah.

Expect failure and be pleasantly suprised when you get better.

Back from the dead.
On the last episode of Project Vespa Killer I installed some injectors and fuel rails and turbo inlet tube and...and...and...
Then I got a new block from COBB....
In this two part episode I've got some additional goodies going on.
Suspension & Brakes.
I'll jump around as I see fit.
