If its not running by this Sunday I'm sending Pedro over there to give you a hand.
That man haunts my stomach's nightmares. Once you visit Pedro, he becomes an unwelcome and unwanted guest for weeks.
Need some motivation, Tony?
Just over the Florida state line in 2001(?):
A couple of turbo shadows on the line at Orlando dragway:
That is a Delaware Valley Shelby Dodge Automobile Club decal that somehow got placed on his face...
Pretty sure this was on my way back to MA in 2010 in the SAAB. Not a dodge, but it did have a turbo!
I have heard it told that every time a challenge car passes by Pedro that someone, somewhere gets a means case of the E36 M3s...
Hurry up and get that thing running!

No, not yet. Last weekend's time got sucked up by my Dakota breaking down (AGAIN) and getting my snowblowers running. I am hoping for some wrenching time over the next few days. I am soooooo close.
Check with me on Saturday. It's going to be frigid, but I will be out there hacking away trying to get it going.
And thank you for pestering me. I need the motivation.

I will be out there all day tomorrow. I hope to have it at least sputtering by the end of the day.

Tick tock. Tick tock. Two hours of daylight left. Hope it's going well.
And hurry up!!
Ok, here is an update.
I hooked up the fuel feed line, as well as the inline filter. I hooked up a battery, and the pump kicks on! I tossed some gas in and no leaks from the filler neck.I turned the key and.....
...it doesn't want to run.
Now, I only hooked the feed line up. The return and vent are open, and the sender lines on the tank are also open. Does it need to be sealed for fuel pressure? I am going to check fuel at the rail next.
Probably all needs hooked up. But you had a running pump and the engine was spinning.
Tomorrow is Another day. Hopefully we get some video of a start up. Or at least video of it not running and you freezing your nads off. It's gotta be what, zero as the high up there?
Thanks for taking the heckling in good humor.
