Alright.
We have project 91' Golf almost complete. Did a tuneup on it tonight, new plugs, wires, distribution system, and temperature sensor (no one told me hot water would come pouring out of that hole.... ohh well, good thing I had compressed air to dry off the exposed spark plug terminals.... hot water coming from a hot water pipe, who knew). The car idles so smoothly now, and there is no staggering at startoff anymore. I can bearly hear the engine running anymore, its quite nice for a 4 cylinder, my 99 diesel vibrates quite a bit more when stoped in gear(which is to be expected, as it is an automatic, in neutral the vibration stops to barely feelable levels).
Anyhow, there is oil coming thru the top gasket (head gasket?) and I am trying to convince the "project manager" (my father...) that it needs to be fixed. How much is labour on this job, and secondly how much is the part?
Regardless, we are getting a timing belt done too, so I figured we could work in the timing belt while they are already in there.
Other then that, all she needs is an alternator adjustment screw which I will be able to get tuesday, then she'll be running like a VW, and smoking some more Honda's again ;-).
