So, I spent some time over the weekend trying to figure out why my radiator fan wasn't working. For some reason the main relay for it has power some times, and not others. I tested all kinds of wires, a bunch of relays, but in the end I wired up a temporary relay and line to just have it run when the key is on for now. Still leaning towards pulling the motor over the winter to basically redo the harness.
It's awesome to be able to finally drive this car. Even drove it to work today in the rain, and am more impressed with the tires I went with then I had imagined. They grip even on wet surfaces really well. It still needs a lot of work, but it's coming along and so nice to be able to actually drive this beast. Time to order a boost controller, and finish swapping over parts. Not much time left to play with this one before it gets put away for the year. |

It’s something about those Caldina wheels that caused fuel leaks. I have to drop my tank sometime on the next few weeks to see where my fuel leak is.

See, I do buy them all; but once and a while I pass one along to a fellow member.
I can't wait to see what you do with it, let me know when you're ready for your Soutbend Clutch kit, and get to work. |

I need to start adding pictures or make another thread for this build. I have been getting a ton of new parts in the mail. My biggest thing I've done over the last week was installing my new wiring harness. It's runs so much better now and now I do not need to worry about wiring issues like I did before.

Usually it gets worse with each sequel, so hopefully this is different.
