I finally got my engine out and found someone with that flywheel box-wrench. Now all I have to do is take it apart. It's been burning oil since I got it (86 NA) in June, and I've been working on it the weekends that I'm home from college. I'm really curious as to what I might find...



Also, I started cleaning my engine bay... blech. I don't think it's ever been done before. I think the dirt may be in some sort of symbiotic relationship with my car. Let's see what some solvents can do. I've been being careful not to strip the finish on anything. Oh, I'll see if I can get a picture of that black battery cover thingy. I was trying to take it off to clean underneath it, and realized battery acid had, at some point, made one of the screws into a putty-like substance. It's pretty funny looking.



Now, to get some replacement hoses... and a clutch... and some other stuff...

Here's to looking and running clean! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/cool.png
