I started the day by installing 8 fresh 24lb Bosch3's. They cleaned up most of the idle lope, it starts great and My O My it makes some serious power.
Next was the cracked sun roof. Some Weldon 4 and the cracks appear to be repaired. It is spending the night inside though so I won't know how well it holds until it sees the cold. Finally I replaced the drivers seat motor. It is fairly comfortable now that I can see out the window!! Tech |

Well-done! I wish I had room to store mine at home over the winter - there's always a lot of little stuff to take care of.

Excellent work! Gotta love it when the check list shrinks and the car responds in a positive manner.

I polished out the top today. 600 grit wet dry followed by 3M rubbing compound and a power buffer finished with Mcguires plastx polish. I still have a few swirls from the 600 grit but it looks great. Next time I would not drill the small hole to stop the crack and I would apply the Weldon 4 one drop at a time to both sides. I still have a faint trace of the crack on the inside.
The center console is cleaned up and reinstalled. I took the center pad off and bonded it back together. When you pay $2200 for a 93 vet you know that the repair list is a long one. Tech |
