It's just too easy... 
Working brake lights could have prevented all of that. 
12,000lbs of stuff doesn't exactly stop on a dime either...

well we got alot of work done tonight. We got the intake off, everything swapped over to the new intake, did valve cover gaskets while i had it torn down because they used to seep a little on the front, and did my new spark plugs. Called it a night, just need to drop the new intake manifold on in the morning, and gonna replace a sticky idler pulley. Truck should feel better then new again. Also gonna do a gas run and do tune for 93 
Gotta do the tensioner tomorrow too. We didnt get the part this evening because they closed the counter before we could get there.
talk to yall tomorrow, should have a thread with a ton of pics.

Beats me.
Just finished lubing my leaf springs and tried to fix a slight muted pop/knock in the right front passenger suspension, happens when turning left, moving slow, and going over a small bump, sometimes. Everything seems tight, gave it the once over on every bolt. I'm wondering if it's the inner and/or outer tie rod ends. I did the old hold the tire and pivot trick, seems to make a little noise, could be it, maybe.

Got the Probe GT started today. The guy that's going to buy it came over and saw it. He's going to buy it and give it to his 16 year old niece who needs a car. He drove it around the block. I just have to take the stereo crap out and get one of the popup headlight motors to actuate and get it tagged and inspected. I should get around $300 for it.
