I hear this comment...what is this spring and screw doing with oil coming out! Crap...that is not radiator fluid.
Well, he had managed to remove the piston from the oil pump and start to drain some of the oil. After a few words, we laughed and agreed that he is good at building bikes, he sucks at working on cars. I reinstalled the parts and spent about an hour laughing and telling each other how much we were stupid. My car, while it is important, is not work more than a friend.
On to the rest of the day, my friend decided that it would be best that we stuck to bikes when working project. I removed the rest of the suspension, and cleaned up the underside leaving me with installation of the front steering components and suspension.
In addition to the suspension, I had been dealing with a drivers side radiator leak. Turns out it was in the middle of the radiator. My better half says...order a new radiator and be done with the problem rather then tracking down someone to repair it.
A lot of these pictures I am posting are so that folks can see what things look like.
I spent the rest of the afternoon cleaning the wheel wells and determining what I am going to do on Friday.
Again as always, if there something you need or would like pictures of...PM me and I will get a picture posted for you.
Have a good evening,
Eric
