Those are right handed drill bits, not the left handed/reversed ones Ty was talking about :lol:

Looks like I'm returning these too..

Reconnected the EVAP purge and ziptied it to the IM and used a hard tube emission hose to prevent any sort of leaks. Currently resetting my ECU.

No fucks given.
It'll still work. The reverse threaded ones are really used as a second option. :lol:

The other asshole
They usually don't do anything, but occasionally the heat from drilling mixed with the left handed turning will loosen up the bolt.

Not needed, just handy I suppose.

Reset my ECU, lets see if it fixes my rich conditions. Snapped a quick picture of my engine.

Installed some new wipers yesterday (rain-x latitude) and also did my valve lash today. Set the exhaust valves to .007" and the intake valve to .006". Some were really tight. In two cylinders, some valves would be tight and the valve besides it would be loose, strange.
I still smell fuel from the engine bay, I only smell it from inside the cabin if I turn the a/c on and then it goes away.

Low end power feels much better, car doesn't feel weak under 3k rpms anymore.

I forgot all about my PCV system dilemma. Maybe that's why I have a problem with my oil, I have too much pressure built up in my block since that breather filter on my VC isn't doing shit. I can get a hard line and connect it to my air intake hose but my engine still would 't have any place to relieve pressure from the system since the block came without PCV box. I think I can still relieve the pressure in the block by using an old coolant pipe thingy and sticking it in a port on the back of the block and then hooking it up to a catchcan. Then running the other hard line hose from the intake to the outlet of the catchcan. I had a diagram for the PCV system on a B-series but I lost the picture.

Took off the dumb breather filter and used a PCV hose along with a 3/8" vacuum fitting to connect it to my intake arm. I installed a new fuel vapor line that went onto the evap canister, that may have been the source of my leak. I also went ahead and ordered all the parts that I needed for my catch can.
