on other projects:
-need to find/figure out wave washers for the valve cover nuts. seems i missed those on the original install, it'd be good to get them in place when i do the valve adjustment.
-did the first bends on a set of 14mm wrenches, total investment ~$15 plus whatever fuel came out of the mapp torch.
-the temp gauge issue mentioned earlier seems to have gone away on its own, so that's nice.
-found the rattle in the exhaust - the clamp right by the transmission is missing its nut, hopefully putting a nut on there will be the end of that issue and make the car sound like less of a rust bucket at stoplights
side note: holy jesus my driveline is purrrrty now. the rebuild shaft is all glossy black, the u-joint is real nice looking, the shaft has proper blatant markings on the alignment of the halves, and all the new flex disc and trans mount rubber looks fantastic. very pleased with that one.
considering doing the bosch al129x swap like i did on my 300TD (posted on here!), the current alternator doesn't appear to have any problems but now that i'm depending on the car as a DD it would be real annoying to kill that expensive battery i bought recently. also a good chance to replace the alternator bracket and L-bolt, as the current L-bolt is kinda beat/bent up.
got a set of injector hard lines that i pulled from a JY 240d that i have been meaning to clean up real nice, the ones on my car right now were pulled from a 300D originally and are all woodly-noodly. probably will throw those in the ultrasonic and get them all spick and span. also will be a good chance to see if my 27mm deep socket is deep enough for pulling injectors, because i really do want to rebuild a fresh set. the interesting thing will be trying to track down someone with a pop tester, or having to roll my own.
looking like pelican might not have my parts ready for today, so i'm thinking to deal with removing the old master/slave cylinders tonight. any reason you guys think that'd be ill-advised? i'm going to be bleeding the whole thing so it's not as though i need to worry about air getting in the lines, and i can cap them off so no dust wanders in overnight.
