      ohm'd my injectors last night found out i need to replace 2 of them! JOY, however there easy to get to so i can complain too much! also need to do that before winter hits. because the car doesnt like to stay running unless you press the gas to keep it running.

          Made a run to town and back with the Century, it still needs a trans and inner/outer tie rods. Did a bit of digging this evening and found that the Neutral Safety Switch from the half dead 4T60e in the Century *should* bolt onto my '87 Celeb's 125C. Possibly with less wiring ahead of me I may just drop the entire cradle, struts and all put in the 3spd trans and just toss the '87 Celeb's cradle in. That would end the whole problem with the tie rods as well.

                  Finally got my 1984 STE back from the shop, she now sports a new FE3 Rack & Pinion, power steering pump, & hoses. Amsoil power steering fluid has made this the easiest car to steer that I've ever driven.
                  What is this & what does pulling it out do?

                    Not much, just been driving to and from my new job. One of my new coworkers actually just bought a Celebrity. Naturally I invited him to check us out, not sure if he will or not. To many, the car is just transportation, not something to be admired or studied.

                      It will bolt on, but that's it. The internal positions don't match up. And some of the aftermarket replacements are made wrong and don't work either. I 'rebuilt' one before and it lasted a while.

                          Some of us spend so much time in our vehicles, you can't help but admire and study. I guess that's one reason I like the "A" The interior is very nice.

                              I actually worked on my '86 coupe today, for the first time since spring I think. I finished all the bodywork and got the last panels primed... next up, remove the rest of the trim, sand and then paint!
