Phew.



I have never ever even thought about being a professional mechanic. No one on the planet would want to pay me my rates. Dang I am SLOW! Today proved my thesis.



The biggest problem is all of my tools, ALL of them have the ability to cloak and transport themselves from where they should be to "how in the heck did it get there? I would never ever put a tool down there!" And where in the heck is that thing at? Even parts can vanish, and transport themselves in my garage. I can stand in one spot, and a tool will vanish, I go looking for 5 minutes for it and suddenly right there where I was working. It has to be stealth mode tools.



I stopped working at on the project at 7:45 CST. Everything is back together, and it looks good. I still have to tighten up all the accessories (PS pump, AC compressor, and alternator) and cinch everything down. Then fill up the antifreeze and PS fluid. For sure the PS pump slowed me up a lot. Getting the pulley off of the old pump was a chore. I had to resort to the impact wrench to get enough torque to get the puller to pull the pulley off. Going back on was easier, but still lots of grunting and cussing. The new PS hoses were a pain as they sold me generic Chevy hoses and I had to make em fit my needs.



So just a few more hours tomorrow and I will have the Elky back on the road. And then I can go fly in the million degree heat tomorrow afternoon.
