Re: my new project

So here's a little update. Haven't done much with the car but I have an oil pump and timing belt on its way. Hopefully it will be here sometime this week. Then the plan is to put that stuff in and re-time the engine and do a compression test. The if the compression test is bad (I'm assuming it will be. I find it hard to believe there won't be bent valve) I'll do a leak down test to find out where we're losing compression. Then we'll go from there

Also once the car is ready to be fired up again before I do my going to tow it to my work and do an engine flush. My work has a machine that hooks up to the oil filter housing and where the drain plug goes and runs an oil based cleaning solution through the oiling system. Hopefully that will remove any metal left in any oil passages.

Now I just need some motivation to work on this thing lol
