A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Not necessarily after lunch, but Saturday is my goal. Bought new vacuum lines, and I may have to source some "T's" because I eliminated the.....EGR stuff? I think that's what that is. Lol. I need to grab a oil pressure gauge for the priming too. I'm hoping for no leaks of course. Today I wont be able to get to it, but tomorrow I'll get the TC bolts in and torqued down so I can put the inspection cover on. I appreciate the support in all of this

Sounds good. Just eliminate the line going to the egr solenoid
If you removed the actual valve, be sure you seal the hole well...otherwi
se it will miss like made if there is a leak there.

That's what I read somewhere so that's good. I'll research all the vacuum routes because there's seems to be quite a bit. Power steering pump is on

Got the engine primed tonight, and the cam sensor seated properly. The TC is bolted to the flywheel and the inspection cover is on. No leaks were found during the prime so I'm pretty excited about that. We're almost there gents!!

Good morning gents. I am officially going through the "no start" tree. I'll keep you all posted. I'm taking a mental break as this is extremely exhausting and frustrating. Lol
