Today I drove 'Toughie" home from my last day at work. I got laid off.
And it was about time. I can now do all of those home jobs that I have put off for months.
First thing is to finish my shed and get ALL of my stuff off of my back patio.
You've seen the photos of the lumber.
Oh yeah, he crossed 165k also.

 

DwRed- Sounds like a solid plan. You know I like yer Camaro...

Blue- Are you gonna add a bow-tie or is the grille done. Looks good.

Greybeard- same thought I had, would one step closer to that all black "murdered out" look.

PittKrew- That is for sure.

Lonwane- Spend you new time wisely, sounds like you were ready for it..


My ride, well I cleaned the windows inside & out. Not a big job on a Panel..

 

Thanks Sleeper...... One step at a time........ . . . . !

 

That's all any of us can do.

 

I recently just went ahead and replaced both the MAF and this valve since they were both original. I noticed that there are small rubber washers inside both ends of the line where it gets inserted. My thought was to replace the rubber gaskets as well, since it seems that they could possibly dry out and/or leak. However, I could not locate them to buy.
This resolved the issue for mine, which was a permanent code. Great post!

 

Today , just a hang around the house day, it’s still low 40’s here so not much polishing or detailing.

planetrj, buy a couple of replacement line ends , use a dental pick type tool to take out the orings and transfer them .

Sleeper, no plans yet, to cold outside for the tape to stick , maybe when the temperature is over 60 degrees.

 

Thanx Sleeper. I'll be as wise as I can

 

Nice grill work
Where is the mesh material available? Black'end please...

 

The mesh is molded into the grille
