Looks like I get to pull motor again...... Clutch just went out(after less than 2k), starter won't engage the flywheel, and I'm still dealing with the oil leak I had in the timing cover to begin with.... 

Yay for me!!!!

Well the goon went down today too, check the thread four updates

 

 

But my truck is home and even tho fox towing refused to tow it on the basis that they couldn't guarantee me that they wouldn't scratch my rims, AAA got another co to show up and they got my girl home without even touching my rims!

 

Look ma! Nothing in the rims!!

So tomorrow ill pull the starter and start the diagnosis.

 

Current issues I'd like to take care of:

KA oil pump upgrade

Redo timing cover gaskets

New non cork oil pan gasket

 

 

Issues:

Truck won't start, starter sounds like its just grinding against the flywheel

 

On my way to work I couldn't get it into first gear on the first few tries but then it stopped acting up, but then I hit a size able dip/pothole and lost my ability to accelerate or gain forward momentum. So I coasted into a parking lot

 

I also couldn't shift into any gears once I stopped, but now I can shift into all gears O_o

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh well, not like i do anything else in my spare time anyway right? I mean blue lake isn't too far off ;)

Ya.... This ones testing my patience

 

Jrock: if only if only .... Pics?

 

Banner: ya, oil pan gasket didn't take and the timing cover/oil pump gaskets were leaking.. So out it comes - I also wanna check the rear main seal for peace of mind

 

Converted: swapping an L motor is cake at this point, doing a KA swap for the first time is not on my agenda for my DD anytime soon.

 

Micro: preachn man....... It's all too true :D

Then it was onto the front breaks which seemed to have organic pads on, cus there was soooooooooooooooo much fucking break dust.

Thats^^ two weeks of dirt, and I cleaned the fronts at canby

 

So I took the time to do a quick pad slap, clean, and fresh coat of antisieze

Good thing I did, they were gross and one of the slide pins was half out and missing a retainer pin

Oh ya, a few Details...

 

Was missing a starter bolt some how with the other one loose so that's why it wouldn't start

 

The clutch slave was blown so that's why I had gear selection issues

 

The spark plugs were hand tight

 

And the valve cover had two loose bolts......

 

 

 

 

 

 

I swear I know how to do this shit, I think O_o

 

Oh well, teaches me to have 3 or 4 projects at once! At least the one with issues is the one getting replaced later :D
