So far, about 5 hrs. I spent about 1½ hours flushing out the engine and radiators. I forgot to get some distilled water, so I got that later in the evening. Everything is buttoned up, except for the underbody tray. It had some cracks in it that I spent a hour or so melting back together with a soldering iron. All I have to do is put the undertray back on and pour the coolant in. Then purge the air out of the system.
Mind you that I'm no spring chicken anymore. I have worked on cars since I was a teenager, but it is getting a lot harder to find the energy to wrench on cars now a days. To give you a hint, I'm collecting Social Security now.
