Couple other things as well that I've forgotten about.

However, when I went to start it on Friday night to move it in order to replace her e-brake cables, it just kept on cranking and cranking without turning over. Did a few tests and determined her fuel pump died. Fuck.

So... spent this afternoon pulling the tank. Not a fun job, especially when it's never been done before and the entire underside is coating with two metric tons of rocks, dirt and sand. Anyway, this is where it's at while I wait for a new pump to get in.



For the record, I am never, ever buying any GM vehicle made between the 90's and late 00's. They are such shit.
Swapped in a new ACDelco fuel pump and reinstalled everything today.

In the pouring rain.

It fucking sucked.

Cleaned off dash area, removed the instrument cluster, removed car battery (will be getting a replacement inside soon)


Coilovers and drilled/slotted rotors are going to be installed in the next couple days when the weather clears

No one wants to buy a car that looks like shit. I'm in no hurry anyway. Might as well look decent for however long I keep driving it.
