Wait.... What?

:rolf:

I finally cleaned it for the first time since the mustang rebuild started. Had to take the wing off to clean the grease off the lid, then I vacuumed it out and simple greened everything.

Couldn't find enough quarters to wash it though so it's still dirty as hell on the outside. :lol:

I also drove it and found the experience very gay, don't know how I drove this turd around for 3 years. :mrgreen:

 

[DCiFound]

I got these in today

Out with the old

In with the new

It took me a while to align it straight

Heated up the metal and warmed up the tape

After 7 years of being badgeless, it still looks out of place :lol:

Check fuses

could it be the distributor itself? or would the start up not make it as far as it did? It also smells sweet after I try starting it up.... :/

so I think I may have flooded the engine while cranking it to get the rotor into position... :/ took my spark plugs out, and they were soaked, so I left them to dry for a bit.

Fixed my no-start issue. Bad ignition coil and the car needed a jump too. I'm so happy now. The struggle of driving my buddies POS bmw was real.

 

[DCiFound]

Good to hear you got it fixed

 

[Noneed2Hate]

installed a new cam seal with some RTV under the lip to make a better seal. My old one was leaking and making a mess in my bay.

Sanding down the carbon fiber hood a little more in prep for clear coat (2nd try,....)

is that something I will need to do? or only if it runs a little funny?

 

[Samurai_Blue]

take off the dizzy? yes you should always do that

 

[Noneed2Hate]

Alrighty, I will look into doing that asap. In other news - ready for clear coat:

 

[Samurai_Blue]

why are you taking off your dizzy if you just fixed it?

 

[Noneed2Hate]

Oh.... I know what you meant now. I didn't take it off. I thought for some reason I had to take it off and re-time everything
