While engine parts and the transmission are off-site getting worked on, I am hanging out in the garage on a rainy Sunday night planning my next "to do" item. I have ordered a bunch of parts, some of which have been delivered and others that I am still waiting on.
The next move, once we get a break in rain, will be to start scraping off old gaskets and cleaning parts to be ready for reassembly.
I also plan to completely unwrap, inspect, repair as necessary and rewrap the original engine wiring harness now that I have full access to it (something didn't have when I did the CIS to ITB EFI conversion).
