I hope you remembered to give 'er another smack at that point where you had trouble clearing the dip-stick, otherwise - oh, I can't say it. Wonderful job.

I wouldn't think of doing anything but. I had to make sure all the fluids were up & that everything worked today, but I'll get some sounds Saturday. It's not actually a PRETTY sound, but once revved up it gets kinda snarly.

Sorry to disappoint, but I own no tire dressing products. You nailed the boots, though! :lol:

I've only driven it around the block. I'm not overwhelmed with the power. Maybe I've been building it up in my mind, or I've forgotten how it ran before, but I sort of expected more. It runs a whole bunch better, no question, but there will be some tuning to do.
