I'm learning that the hard way. Been ordering parts left and right. Hopefully I get it running soon though. Can't afford to keep putting money just to get her running.

Set cyl 1 to tdc and here are the marks.

Holy crap I hope not. I'll have to drop the tank and take a look.

I was about to say. I was going for engineering but let my GPA drop to low as I tried to juggle to much at once.

Got a new battery today. Will start up on fuel problem starting tomorrow.

Oh and if your in school of furthering you education you can also put that down.

What was your job before retirement? What would have been your dream job?

For me I'm a handyman working to get a promotion as a project manager in a construction company. As of right now I'm also working on getting a bachelors degree in computer science. Me and the wife also plan on starting up our own company but this is early stage plans. Undecided what kind of...

Sounds kind of like a personal question but it is interesting to find out what others do for a living. List your job title and main duties of your job. If you work for a company or own your own company. Any other Information you would like to add as in dream job, working for promotion, soon to...

No that's cool I enjoy these off topic rants every now and then. Keeps me motivated to actually do something with my life. So back to the battery. They put it on the charging unit only to find out the battery is in fact bad. Will get a new one most likely next week. Then back to figuring out...

Ok just had it tested at autozone, guy tested it twice for me. Told me battery is good just needs a charge. Quick question piratetip, what does it take to become an engineer at a battery industry, which degree is needed, good pay?

Going to have the battery tested tomorrow at autozone. I'm thinking the battery is bad cause it reads low volt when plugged in to car then when unplugged it creeps back up on the volts back to around 11ish volts.

Finally got them in today. Will have to get the side marker for the passenger side as I have 3 driver side ones. Then will have to do some fine modification to get them looking good.

Ok so I tested the amps exactly how I always have the car setting. I'm still getting the same 0.06 A being pulled until I pull the 15A radio no 1 fuse then it drops to 0 A after leaving the battery on a float charger for about 24 hours the volts of the battery sits at 11.4 volts as of now.

Something else I just thought of is my headlights are all out of wack. When i reset the system as in unplugging the battery for 10 mins the headlights are fine but after starting the engine the light switch seems to go in reverse as in when the switch is in the off position the headlights are on...

Yes I simulated a closed hood, Pretty much closed the mechanism that locks the hood down. I'll do the test with the hood opened and let you guys know the outcome tomorrow. Will also retest the fuel pressure with the fpr vsv bypass to get the correct psi when fpr is plugged in now that I got a...

No nothing was left on I'm certain. I'm running a duralast 600 cold crank, 750 cracking at 32°f, 110 reverse capacity. But I am certain that the battery is being drained as I have to use my float charger every now and then. I do leave the hood open always. And I have this aftermarket radio...

Nvm i figured how to hook it up. It was reading at 0.06 with hood simulated as closed and everything off. When i take out the radio no 1 fuse in the engine bay it drops to 0. Any ideas?

Ok so I disconnected the battery + and - terminal and removed the battery out of the car. I hooked the red lead to + terminal and black lead to - terminal. Did on 20A max and got 0 then did on mA and still got 0. Hopefully I did it right!

Got another banjo tap and installed it. Still emailing back and forth to get the broken on fixed. They most likely will send me another one so I will have two which I'm fine with as it is better to have a spare. I also received this one today as well. Could use this one as well if I ever...
