Yeah, I am getting back into the grind of things a bit. Trying to get used to the school thing with the kids. Folks at Ford are not quite sick of them yet. I get to have 15 minutes at our next group meeting to go over the trip and some of the pictures. <G> Going to pull Sophy's engine this weekend to hopefully deal with some of the oil leaks and to pull the 1/2 head. #2 exhaust valve had tightened up on the trip from Parma to Minnesota and only had 90psi compression when the other cylinders had around 120psi. Hope I don't have a valve or seat going to pot. I will check the compression with the engine warmed up before I pull the engine just to confirm and will check the valves again. Maybe it was just a fluke. I also need to investigate a clutch slip problem and replace an axle boot that cracked. Should be a busy weekend. I finally got around to washing off 6000 miles of bugs from her nose and oil/dust/dirt from her rear end.
