well the car is just about done.....i was gonna get rid of my regulator and get a different one.....but i decided to just use the one i got anyways....so tomorrow im gonna try and hook it up....

the dealership cannot seem to find me the right oil feed line banjo bolts....for sum reason there seems to be a problem with the part numbers and no place has one that will fit[:@] so now im stuck until i can find some that will work....

and the main thing that pisses me off is that i noticed that i am leaking coolant pretty good....so i started looking around i realized that some how the outlet from the radiator that connects to the lower radiator hose hase a crack in it.....so i guess that i have to get a new radiator now....even though i only got the one i have a few monthes ago.....i just dont see how the hell i cracked the radiator[&:]

otherwise these are the only things stopping me from being able to start my car
i just wanna start screaming.....i really hope the radiator has a warranty or sumthing

 

couldnt u slap some jb weld on that outlet

 

my friend did that on his turbo saab... about the beginning of the summer, and its still runnin on the same jb weld!

 

if you are going to fix it, fix it right. I cant wait to hear how the car reacts to your turbo set up.

 

i just wanna start the bastard!!!!!

i dont wanna JB weld it because if it breaks while im at work them im really screwed....i dont wanna get stranded in the middle of farm country at 3:00am[&:]...it happened before when i blew out my pcm and i dont wanna do it again so im just gonna see if it has a warranty......
if the crack isnt bad and there is no warranty then maybe i will consider the jb weld aproach

the radiator is actually the least of my problems because i can atleast get one.......but i cant figuure out what the hell to do about the banjo bolt washers......every where either has ones that are just barely to small or way to big...but none that work

too bad i wont have any time today to work on the car because i need to put a heater core in my pickup before it gets real cold....i hate not having any heat[&:]

 

ok so i ordered a new oil feed line for the turbo because i was told it will come with the new washers.....but the closest one is in kentucky so it wont be here until thursday or friday.....and i hate to spend 15.00 for 2 little crush washers[&:]....but it seems to be the only way to get them anytime sooner then 2 weeks....

i also found out that my radiator is under warranty....so i will have a new one after 7:30 tomorrow morning

and i spent 4 hours this afternoon changing the heater core in the dakota....so now i have really good heat

but as soon as i get the crush washers then the car will be on the road

 

looks like our cars will be done on the same weekend


this will be a goood weekend...

 

You totally just jinxed him... Lol, go knock on wood!

 

come on spud, thats not to much of a sacrifice! Do you have the regular radiator or the mini one?

 

its the regular radiator with the dual fans....

i dont see anything else goin wrong with this project since its almost all together......unless the oil feed line doesnt come with the washers[&:]
