Power steering that is, the high pressure line needed new O rings.
While doing that I noticed my front cover was leaking, rather a lot so I
decided not to replace the power steering parts and investigate the front cover.
It is an Edelbrock two piece so it?s no big deal to do.
Wrong.
While removing the "removeable part" it pulled the "fixed" part off the block.
So I thought, if you have to do that you can replace the oil pump which had started "pulsing" at low rpms.
So now the car is up in the air, new pump in, oil pan bashed back into shape and painted black, you can see by the state of the crossmember it was taking hits.
But I am waiting on parts, a new timing cover and timing chain.
I would be doing more under there, cleaning, painting etc. but it will not stop raining.
I also found out while raising the engine off it?s mounts to remove the oil pan I had room for the distributor
to firewall but the tall valve cover crunched my wiper motor. >
