Change oil/filter and try to find what must be a small leak in the A/C system. Charge A/C and wash the car.
 
The Buick: Dropped the tank again #-o to make some adjustments to the fuel gauge sender. I have it now so when the needle is on E, there is like 3 gallons left. Kinda of a built in for the days I forget, or the wife drives it. (like I would let her). :lol:

Added ADEL clamps to the -8 fuel line since the last dude just zip tied it. He also just had squeeze clamps for the return line. So I replaced all those too. Now I can move it off the lift to do some maintenance on the minivan on Monday. Added a few short vids on youtube also.

reinstalled some a/c, new accumulator, compressor, kwik performance brackets, re-wired a/c for low pressure switch, and wired in 2 relays one for compressor clutch and one to also trigger fan #2 when compressor cycles. Oh and installed the jeep cherokee shaft which is strange because now my steering wheel is off, hrmm, double and triple checked the shaft and it can't get put on clocked wrong maybe my old shaft was actually that bad? strange

I had a stock MCSS steering wheel/non-tilt column in the '81, then stuck in a used Grant wheel out of a regular Monte from the junkyard. It's crooked like you said, but I haven't touched the steering shaft. I'm pretty sure it's the wheel or the mounting kit though, the hole for the horn contact doesn't seem to be in the right spot on the mount, so I had to turn it.

On the subject of my car(s), I just sat here and moped over them because a buddy of mine helped fire up his brother's Nova.

finally got around to re-doing the shock mounts on my rear end that I wasn't happy with....when you do the LS1 rear disks the caliper and shock want to be in the same place.....I fixed it good this time :mrgreen:

Mine did the same thing. Had to set the wheel and then align the front end to get it straight.
