What have you done to your DeLorean today?

I figured I'd take advantage of that and remove the hot water valve and piping to give myself a bit of extra wiggle room. Quite frankly, I have NO idea how people get this thing out without doing that.

Once that hose on the block is removed and out of the way, dare I say this is a pretty simple job. Getting the slave cylinder back in was a snap also.

If I had to do the slave cylinder again and didn't have the engine drained of coolant I'd still do it the same way ... Prior to removing the hose I'd just clamp it off at the hot water valve and be ready with a rubber plug to stuff in the barb fitting on the block. I bet you could get away with minimal coolant loss this way.

Mark, it was actually your take on this job that led me to removing that pipe. Thanks for the tip!

I began the horribly greasy mess that is involved with rebuilding the CV joint, 4 new boots and grease to install after I finish removing every spec of the ancient hardened grease in there. Ill also sandblast and repaint the shafts and joint housings since the plating is gone and the POR 15 I put on years ago never turned out well.

Found these badges, will put one on the engine cover and one inside the engine bay;

Rounding down, eh?

Awesome! I'm glad I was able to help make this job easier for you.

Actually with Ed's low-compression turbo pistons I think my engine is closer to 2.9, but I couldn't find '2.9L V6' badges anywhere.

I did some painting today. I can always gauge how well a project is going by the amount of blood I lose.



Protip...razor blades are sharp.

Shit, what happened to the rest of your fingers????

I thought the photo looked odd. Guess it wasn't just my eyes playing tricks. I do have all my fingers. I just managed to slice my thumb. Red had a little red color again.
