Getting quite a bit of work done today...
Well the ol Neon went into the shop yesterday to fix a notorious problem. I first noticed that I had an exhaust leak about 3 months ago, and I finally got enough money to go get it fixed. Thats not the problem though. Turns out it wasnt an exhaust leak after all, it was a compression leak from a cracked head gasket. So, I probably run a 15.5 with bad compression, I wonder what I'll run with full compression? Anywho, So she's in the shop till 5 today, getting a lot of things done. <BR>1. Head gasket replacement, shaved heads, reseated valves.<BR>2. Complete engine/coolant flush, decarboning<BR>3. New belts<BR>4. Exhaust manifold gasket replaced<BR>5. AC compressor wiring harness replaced.<P>I figure it will be really quiet and run 10x better after today. Oh and I need to change the plugs and wires but ill do that tomorrow.

Well the new manifold gasket comes in next week and the new plugs and wires should be here tomorrow. Whew I wish we had an open track around here to see what she'll do. It already feels like its got an extra 20 hp on tap.
