Mine's been running since I bought it. I'm picking up another T2 tonight, and it doesn't run, so after tonight I'll be one up, one down.

uh, I'm kinda halfway. I leak brake fluid and coolant, due to my changing of the MC, and my crappy coolant blockoff job. I think my battery died too, probably somehow due to my changing of the battery cables. I guess I'm kinda mean to my car.

You never told me that



I thought you were getting a rebuild just because you wanted it ported!
