Tech session 4/26 at Cjthor's

Post by cjthor »

Mark and I talked about this a bit yesterday, he has to do a brake flush and coolant flush as well as swap brake rotors. I think we should make a schedule of people that need their car up on the lift and times. I know Mark needs at least three hours...

9:00 Mooneggs coolant flush
10:00Mooneggs brake rotor swap
11:00Mooneggs brake flush
12:00
1:00
2:00
3:00
4:00

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Yup the hatches look good. Just wish we could get the darn windows bent!! Sooo Mark you are scheduled on the lift from 9-12. Three hours should give you enough time for the brakes/coolant yes?

I would also like to replace my ball joints while my car is up for the brake rotors (since they are right there)... I tried to do it today but I can't get the bolt out that holds it together :crying: maybe we can take a torch to it :welder:

The car turns over, but I don't think I have spark.
After I (we) get the wideband in, I'm not going to touch another wire in the car.

Hey mooneggs, check weather you have the small or large diameter ball joint shaft. I think 92 is small.
