When I got home I popped the hood like usual and found a random bolt laying on top of my intake manifold. Not really what I consider normal. So I found that it had backed out of the air pump. Taking the threads with it. Luckily it has two other bolts that hold on but still something that needs to be replaced. It just so happens that I have a 10 year old air pump eliminator project sitting on the shelf. So I dusted that off and the only thing left with it was to get a spacer milled down. Unfortunately I don't have a lathe. A friend of mine does, though, so I dropped it off to him last night and he said he would get it cut down to the correct dimensions. Once that is done I can pull the air pump and swap that out. Another hot day today. Glad for AC. Hope everyone has a great day! |
