Buttoning up for the first track day

Buttoning things up this weekend.

  • Got the AC working. Installed a new exterior temp sensor and recharged the system. the low pressure fill valve seems to be leaking, but that’s a problem for future me. Resting the bottle on the header really helps counter the bottle freezing up.  It blows cold now
  • Hood back on
  • Degreased the engine to clean up any remaining goop from all the installs.
  • Fixed a parking brake spring that had come loose. It was dragging on a test drive
  • Oil changed
  • Tightened the oil distribution block
  • Checked fluid levels
  • Set up Catalyst
  • set up camera
  • set up remote for camera
  • Attempted to bleed the brakes again. The motive bleeder decided to leak this time. $40 of SRF all over the floor while attempting to get it all set up. I guess I’ll just do it the old-fashioned way.

All that’s left for now is the alignment and brake bleed. I went to a car show out at Northstar Motorsports to do something other than work on the car for once and get a few miles on the car and give it a chance to leak.
