T3: Fastback update


Yesterday I drained the oil/gasoline mixture (anyone know where to dispose
of it?) from the crankcase, reinstalled the starter, added three quarts of
99 cent oil, and cranked it. The oil light didn't go off, but the two year
old Optima I was using wasn't able to crank it very fast.

It had a somewhat uneven sound, making me think perhaps one of the cylinders
has lost compression, but I may just be imagining things.

I then proceed to try and repair the remaining fuel injection bits. I
reinstalled the injectors with new little hoses to the distribution line. I
added two gallons of Arco, and turned on the ignition.

At this point I realized there was a leak on one of the fuel pump hoses,
which I will repair this evening.

I'll keep y'all posted.

-Frank
