    After throwing a fit with all the tact and class of a three year old. I gathered my self, had a snack, and realized I only broke the inlet, not anything on the motor. So not so bad news. Plus now a have an excuse for a Junkin' trip.

    Don't forget to clean out all of the crud under the valve cover oil baffle. Otherwise your PCV valve may not be able to function efficiently.

    Lets see, today I got my first Festiva, replaced valve cover gasket, taking the head off to drain crappy oil out, taking off holy exhaust pipes, removing back seats for a speaker set up. And cleaning it up!

    Door works again. I thought the rods popped off, but the lock and handle stuff was so frozen, it acted like it was broken. Now I have to leave my doors unlocked or else this will happen again. lol

    Replaced the messed up, nearly unreadable faceplate of the Climate Control Unit with a good one.

    My led lights arrived today and I put one in Trixie's dome light and cargo light.
    Also put one in Nellie's cargo light. Much brighter light now.
    Tomorrow I'm going to replace the standard light with leds in Bessie too.

    I had done a center exit exhaust, which made it louder. I cut it back down. I guess it's part of getting old...

    Also put new "Festiva" mud flaps on.
