It's confirmed, my car is pushing coolant. So the car is out, but I'll still dyno the bike if the weather is good enough.

Took most of the late afternoon/evening, but I got my JMF intake mani installed and a few other things fixed up. I had to relocate the battery about 8" lower so the TB elbow would fit, and it makes the engine bay look even nicer. Got my TPS set correctly now too, all that's really left is my fuel pump and base timing.

Since the TB sits so much lower now, I was able to flip my UICP around the right way so the BOV sits on top instead of on the very bottom where it could suck in water. Happy about that fix. It looks like my piping was actually made to fit a SMIM setup. For once an install went great!

So it turns out my car might not be pushing coolant. I found a little hose coming off the lower thermostat housing that was leaking. I'll fix it tonight and see if that fixes it.

I had a water leak from the lower thermostat housing, would leak the full coolant overflow bottle in a week, it sucked. Replaced the housing and I haven't lost a single ounce of coolant in a few weeks now. It's amazing what a small leak can really do.

I need to get my oil cap fixed to see if that's the reason I'm losing oil, I've had several bad caps in a row now, even a new seal didn't fix it completely.
