Tried installing new springs, but couldn't get the old hat off the first strut. Gave up after exhausting everything short of a torch, and decided to deal with it another time, probably with new struts all around.
Reassembled everything, finished my fender liner vent project, cleaned off the studs, applied antisieze, mounted my wheels (including two new rear tires) and put it down on the ground.
Turned it over a couple times with the fuel pump relay pulled, then fired it up! I expected a big cloud of smoke, but didn't get any this time. Drove it up and down the street then re-torqued the wheels. I'll probably take it out somewhere today.
