    Default A “little” winter maintenance.

    Finally ready to start going back together!
    Hopefully it will be all done by spring.

    I have always laid my parts the way they came off but your project might take up the whole garage.

    Just what are you maintaining? I would rather you tell us than us guessing.

    Thanks

    It does take up the whole garage. It would be easier to tell you what I didn’t do! The main things were the valve covers were leaking. So cheching the valves made sense. It was leaking antifreeze. I was hoping for a hose clamp but of course it was the water pump. They couldn’t have made changing the water pump any harder. $100 in parts not including antifreeze and oil. It did make installing things like the new sway bar easier!
