Thumbs up A good day in the garage!

After a long day in the garage,


Products:
-I've managed to finish removing the rat's nest and fix all of the vacuum leaks.
-CAN get it to idle below 650, but I have it set at 750.
-A white shirt which is no longer white
-Cleaner engine bay with more room to work!

Overall, I'm very happy with the work I got done

Good. I love days that end with me feeling like I have been more productive. Always encourages you to do more stuff, as well.

Idle below 650? I bet that sputters and hik-ups like mad.

Congrats on the full day.

Its not so bad.. it's a bit rough, I'd deem it roadworthy even below 650, I just wanted to be safe, and just go with the recomended 750, which it idles perfect at, and I love it
