Thank goodness the shake was a couple lifters that had run dry and had to pump up. When I was adjusting the vlaves there were 2 or 3 lifters that had bled down. As soon as they pumped up it all evened out. I've got the end of the plug wires all loomed together making them fool-proof. It was so easy a caveman did it...
It's done...
Everything checks out and no leaks or concerns thus far. I dumped the Dino and put in 10 quarts of Mobil 1. The steering colum is back in, everythings cleaned up and there's a fresh coat of wax on all affected areas. I'm ready for some asphalt action now.
Too bad there's a bunch of rogue thunderstorms going through today...
