Airborne gets my vote too. Wheelies are cool but how often do you get all fours off the ground? Except in Hollyweird. Jim, you should be a stunt driver. Wild man... If I wasn't so poor, I'd probably enjoy doing that sort of thing too. Repairs just wouldn't be worth it for me. Too many priorities and bills (she tells me).
Oh, to be wild and free...

hey guys! hope you are all enjoying your saturday. not much to report of here in oaktown. our permanent squatter on 47th ave is doing good. building flower boxes and someone just tried to illegally dump a perfectly good flatbed trailer. street-sam (the squatter) has taken it in.
i'm in the process of building some truck stands so i can flush my power steering pump and work on brakes/ujoints/knuckles/vacuum lines for four wheel drive...
truck is currently at work. baldwin 1212 prepump filter has crapped out on me and leaks fuel when the truck isn't running and sucks air when the pump is on... i'm hoping its a faulty drain valve at the bottom of that filter. i'll put a new one on monday and double check my fuel pressure on the regulated return kit.
hope you guys are enjoying the weekend.
cheers!

Been overcast all day, but no rain. Was going to replace the spark plug in the XJ6 today, but wimped out and stayed indoors all day, except to get the mail. Maybe tomorrow.
Wasn't even paying attention to the post count. Thanks.
Jim

It's stalling when it's cold on occasion. It has a little oil leak that I suspect is the icp. Mine is the early style with the sensor below the dang turbo. I'm going to try and see if I can monitor the ICP/IPR while it's cranking in the morning.
