removing crimps on oil cooler lines, replace hose using an oil proof glue and hose clamps

Well, I managed to de-gunk the big brace (it was dang near an inch thick), as well as most of the brackets for the engine, and then painted them. After that I cleaned one of the heads a bit more and got on that valve cover gasket but an old friend showed up and I ended up talking to her for quite a while and that was all I accomplished. Tomorrow is supposed to be beautiful out though so with a little luck I'll get a lot more done.

Well I swapped my hazard/blinker relays so now I have turn signals again and I put a new motor and regulator in for my driver side window, but as I was buttoning everything up I saw that I have a leak coming from the tranny :/ so it looks like ill be digging into that next.

New upper arm today and get this. Never in the 3 years I`ve owned this have I removed the the upper oil cooler line. today I started it and it pumped out all the oil into my driveway. Fastest oil change ever. The oil line had no clip. No clip for three years WTF.

At least you were in your driveway and not on the road somewhere!
