HA! Don't expect me to be looking at it. The jury is still out on this one but, I don't think I have much to worry about. That turd will never make it to Vicary Day in time!
 When it is running, a bajillion years from now, I'll show you what my Camaro taillights look like. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"

It might not be running for Vicary day, but It'll definately be able to show it's taillights.

Run into a bit of a pickle with the fuel pump housing....
Old one broke the output line off in half when I originally pulled it out. New one I just got is going to have the same problem, the nut is corroded to the line way too bad. I happen to have a couple small pieces of AN line with the right adapter to hook to the fuel line left on the car. Not sure exactly how to hook it up... Any ideas? -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

Wrap with electrical tape a few times where you want to cut.
Use a abrasive cutoff wheel to cut through the tape and hose. -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???

I got it, but if I ever have to do that again I'll definately get a hold of you.... I basically made a line that goes from the hose that is currently attached to the car to the fitting on the fuel pump housing. I'll get a pic when it's all installed. Stock setup is very similar to a DSM.

Update....
As far as I know, I now have all the pices to finish putting her back together. Plates are applied for. About 1/2 the fuilds are filled, and I got the battery put in yesterday and ran some juice though her viens for the first time in a long time. Hoping to have her running this weekend, that will depend on what problems I find once I turn the key. It's been a long road, but the end is finally in sight!!!!

Made a lot of progress just tonight. In fact she's already turned over a couple revs..... to the best of my knowledge, the only thing keeping it from runing at the moment is some 93 octane....
That leaves me a couple days for troubleshooting before saturday night.

Put the first 5 or so miles on her tonight.... probably going to take her to work in the morning.....
It's like someone who's been in a coma for the last 3 years trying to walk.... definately needs to get back in shape before trying to run a 100m dash!!!
