How long did the pulling/painting process take? Should I dedicate a whole weekend since my festy is my DD?

The red isnt that bright. It just glows in the photo.

Today I pulled my whole dash and repainted it from head to toe. I pulled easily removable accent components (vent cover, glove box and center storage box) to paint separately for red accents. The rest of the dash was cleaned, repaired in a couple spots and repainted with an interior vinyl paint giving it a brand new shine. I did the same with the accent pieces but red. Since my exterior is mainly red with black bumpers. I figured a mostly black with red accents would give the Interior a great vibe! Let me know what you think!

Looks wicked!!

^I don't generally "make sure". Only thing I watch is the dizzy cap. Only time I've had an issue after clean-up was when I put pressure water on the cap.

But I'm sure better safe than sorry.

What color are you making the valve cover?

What ive got back together so far

Im making it white. Ans since my spark wires are red from Accell, all the trimmings are red

I once thought the dissy had moisture but it didnt. Water got in the TPS and was causing some terrible idling and acceleration. Took me forever to find that because I never thought it mattered.

Did a :twisted:HARDCORE:twisted: CC clean with a potent homebrew cocktail, and degreased the engine bay some more. Also converted to 3/4x16 oil nipple to run the bigger and cheaply available Escort filter, and threw in an oil change with 5w-20.

Seems to run better after smoking for a good 15 minutes. MPG will tell if it really is.

I did the degreasing yesterday and im here to tell you that was a pain. Making sure all the electrical stuff didnt get water in it.
