    I'm so anxious...

    to get my fucking wagon running.
    :crossjer: :crossjer: :crossjer:

    I can't sit still. I can't stop thinking about it. I'd be out there wrenching right now if I didn't have to get up and work in the morning.

    I'm tired of talking about it. I'm ready to have it done!! It's been over three months :nonono: - I'm starting to have trouble remembering how it rides...

          Just for reference - this is how my vacuum system looks now, the only three vac lines are the one from the manifold, the one to/from the reserve canister, and the one leading to the EGR valve itself. All other plumbinmg is disconnected and removed, the solenoids however are still plugged in the electrical harness to keep the computer happy - look at the black plate on the side of the fender right in front of the blower motor, they are relocated to its underside.



          But I guess you can run without any emissions stuff, just make sure you get the correct resistors.

            I missed work yesterday, but couldn't get much done. I was actually sick. Gotta take my son to the doctor for a booster shot today... but as soon as I get out of the office, it's on.

                I'm still not entirely over the cold. I may end up spending this afternoon digging, though (See "Well..."). Not sure.

                    I thought you meant dig a "well".
                    Then I saw your other post.

                          Keep me posted on the NO job. I can help you get moved in and whatever, when you get there (if it works out).
                          That would be simply awesome to have someone local who really digs Panthers. So far, I'm the only one...

                              I should warn you, though... NOLA is horrible right now. It's still in REALLY bad shape since the storms... but at least it doesn't smell like rotting flesh, any more.
                              It's like nothing happened in some areas, but then you get to other areas and... well... it's just ugly.

                                Didn't mean to hijack your thread mang.

                                I would not want to live to close (NOLA) anyway.
                                I need some space and a place that I can play with my toys!
