Tuesday night I asked Jay if it would hurt anything to wire the choke open other than being hard to start when cold. He said no so I did! Now I'm back well into the 30s on MPG (from low 20s, choke is all messed up) and hopefully a little more tuning this week and I'll be doing good again Jay is the MAN!
Puzzled at the rear defrost that has ceased functioning, checked the fuse, the ground looks fine, haven't done anything to it, and nothing has changed, just packed up and quit. Was working great before, I figured if the switch was bad I would've noticed intermittent failing? any ideas, EVTM says check a list of components, I will, but any ideas on where to start?
Probably should move this to the repair thread, Is the little light coming
on? You may want to get a test light and see if power and ground actually
exist at the rear window and if power is on both sides of the fuse.
Changed LCA's, pulled sway bar for new bushings, pulled struts for replacement. Waiting to be installed, xr2 spindles, rotors, Escort GT Master Cylinder, And a few other goodies.
fixed the rocker shafts after putting the wrong ones in saturday. Sunday swapped HG, head, intake, tb, etc in 3.5 hours, also swapped the same 'wrong' shafts sunday, too. not bad considering I had to disassemble 2 engines instead of just mine. doh' moments much?
Put on my new tires, pulled a passenger side mirror(will sell as soon as i find a decent camera to take a picture of it) Reinstalled seats and put in subs..

I drove it, I cleaned the interior out, I put both wiper arms back on and got a new wiper blade for it, I also went through all my old citgo gas cards and filled it up (I have like a dollar left on one still). Tommorow I'm going to drive a good distance for the first time (45miles to school and 45 back) Instead of the typical 15 mile drive from the shop to the house.
