Now that don’t look so bad right ?
They did not tie the back of the car down…...
Remember i burned a strap off well the second one was never put back on
its laying on the ground behind the car in the photo
So Here we go… i ge the nod and i put it in 3rd gear and step on the gas
and so the car starts to go upward i slam it into nutral the guy nods me on
ok maybe its just me then i put it in 3rd again and started to step on it and
poof you see the pictures…..
We get it back up on the Dyno and push it off because now there is a leak….:(
Yeap a leak so we push it off the club members come over we jack her up…..SHAT
Broke the elbo fitting for the tranny….. now were do we find a fitting on a Sunday…?
So one of the club members ( GtpSpecialEdition ) Chris says come on over to my home
and we’ll fix you up ? we get a temp patch on the hose and off we go….
Once at Chris’s place he says ok were going to take his off his car and put it on mine to get
us back home-—-> very stand up Guy huh Very cool in my books.
A couple of bashed elbos later and knuckles and its off both cars….
Cool very cool ——-> guess what ?
Yeap a 2001 and a 1998 are not the same treading…. shit what to do….....?
we were just at the only store open and they have nothing there for tranny lines C/T…
Ok Think John…..... Ha ha got it Fuel line adapers and some hi presure fuel flex line should do the trick….. with some Tub clamps….. dam it …. the ends are not the same we had to do some grinding off the nipples….. some more bashed elbos and a few hrs later we are at home and the car is still not leaking…........ so with these last few words….
Thanks to all the OQCGP Club members that helped out and Chris and Kelly
for taking us in and making us feel right at home TOP LEFT.
