You need a lot of glow in the dark filament. And a new choke handle. And dash.

You need to pull it again and run it on an engine stand to see where it's leaking from.

Then while it's out get a 3800 :colbert:

Just tell them thanks for the guidance but you've decided to swap to a far superior engine.

That's probably worth 5k over here. Hell, it comes pre-patina'd.

I'm debating keeping my old dishwasher for just this sort of shenanigans when I put the kitchen back together...

... place your bets: How long will a dishwasher filled with acetone (or diesel fuel, or kerosene) survive before all the seals, hoses, and assorted plastic bits turn into goo?

About 45 seconds.

After that, I used two rolls of flashing tape to cover the single-layer sheetmetal areas. This is asphalt/mix tape with a foil backing.

Does the flashing tape do anything by itself? I have a roll and a rattly car...

Good thing is that most welding is done. Only welding left is on the undercarriage, and gently caress welding upside down.

Does kevbarlas still have the camper van rotisserie for sale?

It's like there's a group of people out there who insist on being as obnoxious as possible in the hopes of wearing you down to free. I think this is somehow better than assuming that the general populace is really that illiterate and/or constantly begging for a free shitbox car.

maybe those calls and emails are all from local junkyards wearing you down so you'll give it to them instead of trying to sell it? :tinfoil:

That makes more sense, I wondered about the first one but didn't understand enough to question it.

And once again you're making me want a 3d printer.

Ambulances should have tipper backs and a pressure-washer-fed deluge button. Park near a drain, Open the doors, tip and gush.

Here's the draft I have for the coil mount:

Besides the standard "four parallel grooves" that I put in everything, I don't know how else to tart it up.

Make a deep 3D "COIL" running vertically with the hole through it. Repeat for next component so everything ends up labelled clearly :haw:
