Today I learned how to take apart a Honda engine, clean the heads, replace the valves and re-assemble everything...successfully, I may add. There's still a tiny leak. The search continues tomorrow. Once that's done it's on to doing a valve adjustment on the Acura. Maybe by the time I get my Cadillac back to Los Angeles, I'll be ready to fix that poor thing myself.
I always knew I liked working on cars, but today was especially fun. Thanks to my brother for being patient and answering every time I said "what's this thingy do??", "Where's this go??", and my favorite "Uh oh, I think I forgot to attach that hose."
Perfect rainy day. I wish it were like this every single day. Maybe it's time I break up with Los Angles too.
Thoroughly exhausted. Up since 5:30, b-shot hurt extra hard today cos of the cold weather, working with a bum arm didn't help...all in all, it's nice to be physically tired like this. Can't complain.
